Winners and losers from the Pittsburgh Steelers 20-10 win over the Los Angeles Chargers Sunday afternoon.
Winners
DL Cam Heyward
Just old-school, top-tier run defense. Heyward showed that the first two weeks of the season but it was again on display in this one. His best rep came in the second half, controlling the left guard while keeping RB J.K. Dobbins lateral. Dobbins came into the game averaging nearly 10 yards per carry and while he had some success early on, the Steelers cooled him off.
Heyward hasn’t gotten the sacks but his power has collapsed the pocket, including a key play on a third down incompletion that forced the Chargers to settle for a field goal.
