Following each game in the 2024 Pittsburgh Steelers season, I will highlight the event, or string of events, in the game that was the turning point. Not all turning points will be earth-shattering but are meant to give a unique look at how we arrived at the outcome of the game, one that may be hard to see during the live watch.
The Pittsburgh Steelers emerged victorious from a very physical matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday to advance to 3-0. While certain aspects of the box score look like the Steelers dominated, like the -5 net yards allowed in the second half, it was a very close game until about halfway through the third quarter.
