1980 NFL Week 16 • Pittsburgh Steelers vs San Diego Chargers - Radio Broadcast / On December 22, 1980, the Pittsburgh Steelers, led by quarterback Terry Bradshaw and coached by Chuck Noll, faced the San Diego Chargers, directed by coach Don Coryell with quarterback Dan Fouts at the helm. The game took place at Jack Murphy Stadium as part of the NFL's regular season schedule. Coming into this game, both teams were already shaping their seasons, with the Steelers looking to maintain competitiveness despite challenges and the Chargers seeking to assert their dominance in the AFC. This season was particularly notable for the implementation of the "Air Coryell" offense, which had begun to revolutionize passing strategies in the NFL.
During the game, the Steelers and Chargers both demonstrated strategic plays with San Diego gradually building a lead. Key performances included Rolf Benirschke’s consistent field goals contributing significantly to the Chargers' score. For Pittsburgh, Sidney Thornton and Bennie Cunningham provided crucial touchdowns that kept the Steelers in contention. Dan Fouts for the Chargers and Terry Bradshaw for the Steelers showcased their prowess, with Fouts throwing for over 300 yards and Bradshaw connecting critical passes, including a touchdown.
Ultimately, the Chargers outlasted the Steelers with a final score of 26-17, which shaped the postseason narratives for both teams. The Chargers improved their record to reflect a strong finish in the regular season, heading into the playoffs with momentum, while the Steelers adjusted to a season that did not meet their historical championship calibers.
