2008 NFL Playoffs Divisional Round: Chargers at Steelers

San Diego Chargers (9-8) at Pittsburgh Steelers (12-4), Sunday 4:45 p.m. ET (CBS) 

LV‘s Pick: Last week running back Darren Sproles (328 all-purpose yards in win over the Colts) had the game of his life.  But this week he is facing the Steelers defense which was almost Number 1 across the board.  Led by Defensive MVP linebacker James Harrison, the Steelers will close all of the gapping holes from the wildcard round.  The Steelers defeated the Chargers, 11-10 in Pittsburgh in Week 11.  But expect a larger margin this time as a healthy Ben Roethlisberger (concussion) leads the Steelers over the formerly surging Chargers 24-17.
