Quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, who completed 31 of 41 passes for 308 yards and no interceptions. ? Running back Willie Parker, who was back for just his second game in the last seven and rushed for 115 yards on 25 carries. ? Receiver Hines Ward, who caught 11 passes for 124 yards. ?

Safety Troy Polamalu, who intercepted a pass and was his usual disruptive self. ? Defensive linemen Aaron Smith and Casey Hampton, and linebacker James Farrior, who helped hold the Chargers to just 66 yards on the ground and 159 through the air. “It’s that time of year,’’ Farrior said. “It’s November football.
