Aaron Rodgers posted a QBR of 4.2 on Sunday Night Football, fumbled in his own end zone for a safety in the first quarter, and threw two interceptions as the Los Angeles Chargers held Pittsburgh to 221 total yards in a 25-10 win at SoFi Stadium. The Steelers turned the ball over three times without forcing a Chargers turnover, converted 2 of 11 third-down attempts, and did not reach the end zone until Los Angeles had already built a 25-3 lead.
Justin Herbert completed 20 of 33 passes for 220 yards and a touchdown without a turnover, Kimani Vidal ran 25 times for 95 yards and a score, and Ladd McConkey’s four catches for 107 yards included the 58-yard gain that set up Vidal’s 2-yard touchdown run.

Keenan Allen’s two catches brought him to 956 career receptions as a Charger, one past Hall of Famer Antonio Gates for the most in franchise history. Gates was at SoFi Stadium that night to watch the record fall. Los Angeles moved to 7-3 with the win, one game behind first-place Denver in the AFC West, while Pittsburgh fell to 5-4 in the AFC North.
