Y! Sports Expert Picks

Y! Sports Expert Picks
Away Expert Home Reason
James C. Black Pittsburgh Pittsburgh's offensive struggles may allow San Diego to hang in there, but expect a repeat of the suffocating Pittsburgh defense that limited San Diego to just 213 offensive yards in Week 11.
Jason Cole Pittsburgh The Steelers took an 11-10 win over the Chargers in which they scored three FGs and a safety for the win. Like that game, this one figures to be ugly with a 3-2 score not completely out of the realm.
Michael Silver Pittsburgh I'm going to stick with my not-so-winning formula and predict that the Chargers can't pull of a second playoff upset. The Steelers will bring the noise in this one. Darren Sproles, meet Troy Polamalu.
Charles Robinson Pittsburgh San Diego's running game won't carry over against Pittsburgh's fantastic front seven. And while Philip Rivers has shown the ability to carry the Chargers, it's going to be his turnovers against the pass rush that proves the difference.
