That means defensive coordinator Ron Rivera -- he had a great game in keeping the Colts off-balance -- will likely dial up more blitzes or figure out other ways for Roethlisberger to feel the pressure. The Steelers have had trouble running the ball, and Willie Parker's tender shoulder must also be watched. If the Chargers can shine on the early downs, they can get after Roethlisberger. The Chargers need to match an aggressive defense with the Steelers' aggressive defense, and considering the troubles the Steelers' offensive line has had this year, this could be the one area where the Chargers could exploit the Steelers.
