Before a national television audience on ABC Monday night, America will learn if the San Diego Chargers’ offense – outfitted in its classic 1960s uniform – can move through the Pittsburgh Steelers in a matchup of 2004 division champions. San Diego (2-2) has won back-to-back games in impressive fashion. In the past two weeks, running back LA DAINIAN TOMLINSON has darted for 326 yards and five touchdowns while throwing a TD pass and adding 62 receiving yards for good measure. Quarterback DREW BREES has completed a whopping 38 of 46 passes (82.6 percent) with four touchdowns and no interceptions in those two wins. Pittsburgh (2-1), rested after a bye week, counters with a pass rush averaging one sack every 7.7 pass plays – best in the NFL. A defensive front seven with four All-Stars will challenge the hot Chargers. Offensively, despite his last name, running back WILLIE PARKER is anything but stationary, standing fifth in the AFC with 327 yards despite the bye. And oh, by the way, quarterback BEN ROETHLISBERGER wears a shiny 131.8 passer rating – the league’s highest.

Nine members of the AFC roster are first-time All-Stars, including Chargers quarterback PHILIP RIVERS, in his first year as a starter, and three of his San Diego teammates. The Chargers own the conference’s best record at 12-2. Helping Rivers at the AFC’s quarterback position will be Indianapolis’ PEYTON MANNING and CARSON PALMER of Cincinnati. Manning leads the NFL in touchdowns (26) and passer rating (99.0) and will start for the AFC in his seventh trip to Aloha Stadium. The Colts’ QB led all NFL players in Pro Bowl fan balloting with 1,183,468 votes. Palmer earned his second consecutive All-Star selection, standing No. 2 in the AFC to Manning in both TD passes (24) and passing yards (3,575). A pair of Chargers will start in the AFC’s backfield: running back LA DAINIAN TOMLINSON and fullback LORENZO NEAL.
