Patriots Vs. Steelers Score Update: Brady to Branch Answered by Roethlisberger to Brown, 17-10 Steelers

The Steelers had their first giveaway in 12 quarters when Ben Roethlisberger threw an interception to Gary Guyton at the Steelers 25 yard line to give the Patriots easy field position. Tom Brady capitalized on the field position with a two yard touchdown pass to Deion Branch to make it 10-7.

The Patriots got to the two after a six-yard run by Kevin Faulk. Brady extended his team record for consecutive games with a touchdown pass to 23.

The Steelers answered with a 10-play, 76-yard drive culminating in a seven-yard touchdown pass to Antonio Brown from Ben Roethlisberger to make it 17-7 with 2:41 remaining in the second quarter. Roethlisberger's 14 yard completion to Mike Wallace on second and 10 from the 27 put the Steelers at the 13 yard line. Another pass to Isaac Redman for five yards set up Brown's score.

The Steelers have scored on three of their four possessions of the game.
