Super Bowl XLV Second Quarter: Packers 21, Steelers 10

Shaun Suisham kicked a field goal to put the Steelers on the board on a drive that started in the first quarter.

Hobbling on a bad knee, Roethlisberger came up with the key first down on that drive with a scramble to the left.

However, the Packers got their second touchdown off a Big Ben interception, as Jarrett Bush got the second pick. Four plays later, Rodgers threw a 21-yard touchdown pass to Greg Jennings.

But the Steelers answered back with an eight-yard TD pass to Hines Ward with less than a minute left in the first half. The critical play of that drive was a 30+ yard pass to Mike Wallace.

Roethlisberger finished the half completing 13-of-21 passes for 143 yards and a touchdown, as well as two interceptions. Rodgers has 137 yards and two touchdowns on 11-of-16 passing.

Injury Report

For the Packers, Donald Driver, Sam Shields, Charles Woodson and Nick Collins left for the locker room with injuries. To my knowledge, it was undetermined whether or not any of them will return.
