Seattle’s defense dominated the first half of the game, holding Pittsburgh to only 93 yards, but they could not stop them on third and 28 when Ben Roethlisberger connected on a 37-yard strike to Hines Ward to setup Pittsburgh’s first touchdown. It was one of the few highlights for Roethlisberger who had a game to forget, going 9-21 and throwing two interceptions.

The Giants got off to an early start as Willie Ponder took the opening kickoff for a touchdown and jolt of early momentum. Manning and the Giants offense put up 30 points on a Pittsburgh defense that had allowed 30 only once before this season. Manning looked far better on the day than he has in any other game this season. He completed 16 of 23 passes for 182 yards and a pair of touchdowns. Twice his receivers were stopped short of the goal line or he may have had four touchdowns on the day. His only interception came on the Giants’ final drive on a controversial no-call on Amani Toomer.
