Steelers moving on!
January 12, 2009
The Steelers are now moving on after beating the Chargers 35-24. All tho the Chargers lost, the still played great. The Steelers also played great, and will now be moving on the the AFC championship game.
Ben Roethlisberger and the Steelers had on of there best games this season. Willie Parker rushed for 146 yards and 2 touchdowns. No one on the Chargers defense could stop him.Also, Ben Roethlisberger completed 17 out of 26 for 181 yards and a touchdown. He didn’t throw for many yards, but he did throw for a touchdown pass that helped them pull this one off.
On the other side, the Chargers played great to. Phillip Rivers completed 21 out of 35 pass attempts for 308 yards and 3 touchdowns. He definatley played like the leader of the team. The 3 throwing touchdowns were the only touchdowns the Chargers scored all game. The couldn’t get the ball down the field running it, so all they could do was pass. It worked out pretty well, until he started throwing interceptions. He only threw one, but that could have been one more touchdown that they scored.
I thought that the Chargers would come out on top in this one, but it didn’t seem to happen that way. As the Steelers are headed to the AFC championship game, the Chargers are back home waiting for next year.
