The Chargers are on a hot streak.

Here's what you need to know about the Bolts ahead of Week 11.

1. What happened in Week 10?

The Chargers beat the Steelers at their own game, dominating the physical battle and simply being the tougher team in a 25-10 primetime win.

It was the kind of victory that made Chargers Head Coach Jim Harbaugh beam after the game.

"I like wins that are created by great preparation, great strategy, finesse," Harbaugh said. "But the best [wins] to me are the physical ones, won by heart and grit and guts. To me, those are the best and that's what this one was.

"I just feel like our team has hearts of champions," Harbaugh added. "I love these kinds of wins. Physical. Tough. Heart. Grit. Guts."

The Chargers defense allowed just 221 yards, 156 of which came before a Steelers garbage-time touchdown drive. The unit also held Pittsburgh to just 2-of-11 on third downs, tallied three sacks and limited the Steelers to just 73 rushing yards.

Offensively, the Bolts rushed for 115 yards as part of a 314-yard effort and hung tough up front as a depleted offensive line battled all night.

Plus, the Chargers earned a 3-0 advantage in the turnover battle as the Bolts defense intercepted Aaron Rodgers twice and Del'Shawn Phillips recovered a fumble on special teams.

"I thought it was a huge win for us," Justin Herbert said.
