The Patriots extended their first quarter lead over the Steelers to 10-0 with a 31-yard field goal by Shayne Graham. The kicker is playing his first game since being brought in to replace injured starter Stephen Gostkowski.
Patriots Vs. Steelers: Shayne Graham Fails To Shank First Field Goal As A Patriot
Graham had fought to be the Ravens kicker during the preseason but lost out to Billy Cundiff. He was signed for a week to play with the Giants in their Week 6 victory over the Lions.
On the scoring drive, the Patriots drove again inside the Steelers red zone, but what would have been another first down was derailed when BenJarvus Green-Ellis was penalized 15 yards for a chop block. The drive fizzled from there and the Pats were forced to settle for a field goal.
