Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Shelby Cassesse of WPXI-TV.

The Pittsburgh Steelers have been very conservative in their offense through two games, but will they open it up against the Los Angeles Chargers? Christopher Carter and Shelby Cassesse discuss how they should go about that. Justin Fields has shown glimpses of his potential, but could him and George Pickens actually show their best game so far against the top scoring defense in the NFL? Also, Chris and Shelby pick all the week three games and give their keys for the Steelers to win, as well as their final score predictions on who wins the game.

Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by David Droegemeier of the Locked on Chargers podcast for Crossover Thursday.

The Pittsburgh Steelers face the Los Angeles Chargers Sunday, and the two teams appear to be very similar. Christopher Carter and David Droegemeier discuss the matchup between the 2-0 teams. Mike Tomlin and Jim Harbaugh are two experienced coaches working conservative offenses and have the top two defenses in the NFL after two weeks. But what are the matchups that favor each side? Christopher and David discuss talk about how T.J. Watt and Alex Highsmith match up with Chargers offensive tackles Rashawn Slater and Joe Alt, as well as how the Steelers could employ George Pickens, Pat Freiermuth and Najee Harris to attack the Chargers' top-ranked defense.

Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Mike DeFabo of the Athletic.

The Pittsburgh Steelers appear to be starting Troy Fautanu and Dan Moore at tackle while benching Broderick Jones. But is that the right move? Christopher Carter and Mike DeFabo discuss whether Mike Tomlin's plan will stunt the growth and development of Jones, or if this plan will benefit Jones and help him recover from his elbow injury?

Also, Chris and Mike discuss Justin Fields' passing after two games and how Tomlin talked about his efficiency when throwing downfield. Fields has the fewest passes when targeting beyond the sticks of quarterbacks who've started two games, but he has the third-highest completion percentage. What's been behind that?

And can Fields take another step forward? Finally, Chris and Mike discuss the Steelers' upcoming matchup with the Los Angeles Chargers Sunday, and how both team's styles match as teams that want to run the ball and play tough defense. Can the Steelers find an advantage?
