On Sunday, November 12th, 2025, the Los Angeles Chargers will host the Pittsburgh Steelers in a highly anticipated primetime matchup. The game will feature a showdown between two of the NFL's elite quarterbacks: the Chargers' Justin Herbert and the Steelers' Aaron Rodgers.
Both teams are coming off recent victories, with the Chargers winning in Tennessee and the Steelers forcing six turnovers to hand the Indianapolis Colts their second loss of the season. However, the Chargers have suffered a significant blow, losing left tackle Joe Alt to a season-ending ankle injury, forcing them to reshuffle their offensive line once again.
The Chargers will need to find a way to protect Herbert and get the ball out of his hands quickly to neutralize the Steelers' formidable pass rush, led by T.J. Watt, Alex Highsmith, and Nick Herbig. On the other side, the Steelers will look to keep Rodgers clean and balanced, mixing in an efficient running game with Kenneth Gainwell and Jaylen Warren to control the tempo.
The game promises to be a thrilling affair, with both teams looking to capitalize on their recent successes and secure a crucial win in the competitive AFC landscape.
