Chargers stifle Steelers as turnovers prove costly | JQJO

Los Angeles smothered Pittsburgh 25-10 on Sunday night, leaning on a relentless defense and timely strikes from Justin Herbert. Khalil Mack’s strip-sack safety set the tone, and RJ Mickens’ interception set up a Herbert-to-Ladd McConkey touchdown. After three red-zone incompletions by Aaron Rodgers, McConkey ripped a 58-yard catch-and-run to set up Kimani Vidal’s score. Rodgers finished 16-of-31 for 161 yards with a TD and two picks, one off Calvin Austin to Donte Jackson. Herbert went 20-of-33 for 220 yards, McConkey had 107 yards, and Keenan Allen became the franchise receptions leader. Chargers move to 7-3; Steelers fall to 6-4.
