This game had the potential to get ugly for the Giants with Eli Manning and Jim Sorgi not available due to injury.  That meant that Rhett Bomar had to play the whole game under center for the Giants.  He completed 13 of 26 passes for 167 yards with 1 INT.  But he also ran the ball 3 times for 21 yards (7.0 ypc) in this game.  Andre Brown led the way on the ground for the Giants in this game with 61 yards rushing on 13 carries (4.7 ypc) with 1 TD run.  Ahmad Bradshaw pitched in with 28 yards rushing on six carries (4.7 ypc) with 1 TD run.  WRs Steve Smith (2 rec, 53 yards) and Victor Cruz (2 rec, 30 yards) led the way in the passing game for the Giants on Saturday Night.  The Giants finished up with 129 yards rushing (4.3 ypc) and 151 yards passing in this game.

The Giants’ D got pushed around quite a bit by the Steelers’ offense in this game.  Rookie 6th round pick (LB) Adrian Tracy led the way for the Giants in this game with 9 tackles and 2 tackles for a loss.  Safety John Busing pitched in with 7 tackles in this game for the Giants.  The Steelers finished up with 161 yards rushing (3.9 ypc) and 251 yards passing in this game.
