The longtime Chargers quarterback understands there’s no time.Not with the Chargers (8-3) scrambling to stay ahead in the middle of a tight AFC playoff race and a trip to AFC North-leading Pittsburgh (7-3-1) looming L.J. Collier Jersey , one that could erase all doubts about whether Los Angeles is for real.“We’ve got a heck of a December ahead of us,” Rivers said.So Rivers gave his 28 for 29 day in an almost comically easy 45-10 over Arizona last Sunday a cursory look, lingering over his one mistake — a second-quarter fumble on a play he audibled to — far longer than any of his three touchdown passes or his record-tying 25 straight completions.The 15-year veteran is well aware miscues of any variety need to be avoided when Ben Roethlisberger is on the other sideline just waiting to pounce in a place that’s not exactly hospitable to teams in visiting white jerseys, particularly as the calendar hits December.The Steelers are an NFL-best 18-3 in December since 2013 and 8-0 in December prime-time games at Heinz Field since it opened in 2001.“It’s one of those old-school NFL atmospheres,” Rivers said. “Throw in fact it’s in December they are right there in the hunt in the AFC and you expect a heck of a game.”One the Steelers need just as badly as the Chargers. Pittsburgh had its six-game winning streak end last week in Denver, a 24-17 setback littered with the kind of sloppy mistakes the Steelers largely avoided while righting their season following a 1-2-1 start. Pittsburgh turned it over four times, three times in the red zone, the last one a Roethlisberger pick at the goal line on a pass intended for Antonio Brown.The loss cost the Steelers the inside track at the No. 2 seed in the AFC playoffs and set up the possibility that Los Angeles’ visit to Heinz Field could be the first of two such meetings.Not that Pittsburgh is getting caught up in “what ifs http://www.seahawksfootballauthentics.com/marquise-blair-jersey-authentic ,” not with a December schedule that includes games against the Chargers, New England and New Orleans.“We’ve done it from all the different seeds,” Roethlisberger said. “So just getting in is the most important. Getting one of those first two byes is a big deal but there is still a handful of games left, so we have a lot of games in front of us we got to take care of first.”Roethlisberger and Rivers are seventh and eighth on the all-time list for career yards passing, throwing for a combined 108,196 yards — or 61.5 miles — since they came into the league in 2004. The two understand they are inextricably linked, though there’s one thing — two actually — that Roethlisberger has that Rivers does not: a Super Bowl ring.A victory on Sunday wouldn’t guarantee a shot at one, but it would stamp the Chargers as a team built to compete in January and perhaps beyond. Rivers isn’t consumed by the big picture D.K. Metcalf Jersey , however. Focusing on the small one is tough enough.“I’m trying to get a first down on Sunday night to be honest with you,” he said.KEEP AN EYE ON:The Chargers receivers, who will need to pick up the slack with running Melvin Gordon’s injury. Gordon is week to week with a sprained MCL in his right knee.Mike Williams had two touchdown catches last week while Keenan Allan has a TD in three straight games. Williams was a deep threat early in the season, but showed off his athleticism in last week’s win over Arizona with two catches near the boundary line at the back of the end zone.OPTIONS APLENTY:The emergence of JuJu Smith-Schuster has taken some of the pressure off Steelers star wide receiver Antonio Brown. Smith-Schuster is taking advantage of defenses who focus extensively on Brown, one of the reasons the 22-year-old ranks sixth in the league in receptions (77) and yards receiving (1,055). Still, Roethlisberger is quick to shoot down the notion Pittsburgh now has two No. 1 receivers. If anything, the number is far greater than that.“I’d put James Conner in there http://www.seahawksfootballauthentics.com/cody-barton-jersey-authentic ,” Roethlisberger said. “Vance McDonald, (Ryan Switzer, Ju, AB. So, I’d put a lot of them as number ones.”BOSA’S REALLY BACK:Los Angeles defensive end Joey Bosa missed the first nine games because of a bone bruise to his left foot, but made his presence felt in his second game back last week with two sacks. Roethlisberger has always been a difficult quarterback to take down, but Bosa’s speed could give him an advantage.BROTHERLY LOVE:The game features a pair of brothers squaring off. Steelers linebacker T.J. Watt could find himself in position to tackle older brother Derek, a fullback for the Chargers. Longtime Pittsburgh center Maurkice Pouncey will share the field with brother Mike Gary Jennings Jr. Jersey , who plays the same position for Los Angeles. Asked if anyone would notice if he and his brother switched places at halftime, Maurkice Pouncey joked, “Yeah, I’d take those boys to the next level.” The 2017 NFL regular season is now behind us, and teams have to start doing their homework on what players they'll want to sign in free agency. For the first time in ages, there are going to be a handful of quality quarterbacks available on the open market, and money will be spent. A lot of it.Though this free agent class is devoid of superstar wide receivers, there are still many talented wideouts available that simply just need a change of scenery. Many of these receivers are young and just entering their respective primes http://www.seahawksfootballauthentics.com/phil-haynes-jersey-authentic , but a different quarterback/system is necessary. They could help an already competitive franchise get over the hump. They turn a contender into real champions. Or they could cash in and hope for the best on a weaker team (we're looking at you Cleveland).There are a few franchise-changing players in the 2017 free agent class, and you can expect plenty of quarterbacks and wide receivers to find new homes this summer. Some teams are just one or two pieces away from competing, and free agency gives them the chance to find those pieces. With contracts inflating every year, which players will chase the money and which will chase the glory?Here are eight quarterbacks and eight wide receivers who will sign with new teams in the offseason.
