PITTSBURGH — Michael Badgley kicked a 29-yard field goal on the final play to lift the Los Angeles Chargers to a 33-30 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday night.
Badgley initially missed a 39-yard kick but Pittsburgh was called for offsides.
Badgley's ensuing 34-yard attempt was blocked, but the Steelers were again flagged jumping across the line of scrimmage before the snap.
He drilled his third attempt at the game-winner, and the Chargers gleefully declined another Pittsburgh penalty.
That 16-point deficit was erased as quick as ⚡ .
