3RD QUARTER --

Broncos Sixth Drive --
--Let's see if the offense can keep it going to start the 3rd quarter...
--A first down catch makes it look like they will...
--Another first down for Marshall and the Broncos are moving again...
--We could have done without that....Cutler's second pick of the game gives the Steelers great field position...

Steelers Seventh Drive --

--Steelers using the momentum created by their defense to get something going on offense. Costly turnover by Cutler. Very costly...
--Nick Ferguson, untouched, unblocked, un-everythinged brings down Parker in the backfield bringing up a huge 3rd down.
--It's not to be as the Steelers convert. A bad turnover gets the Steelers right back into it. BRONCOS 21 -- Steelers 14

Broncos Seventh Drive --

--A big possession for the Broncos offense, especially Jay Cutler. He has to find a way to avoid throwing picks. I know that might seem like common sense, but so far in his young career he hasn't been able to do it.
--A nice start, with a bullet to Marshall...
--Myers has done a solid job tonight at center...
--Broncos pick up another first down
--Cutler gets sacked for the first time
--Huge play by Young on the screen and the Broncos pick up another first down...
--Cutler has got to learn to THROW THE BALL AWAY!!! Nearly another turnover...
--Another 3rd down conversion for Stokley and the Broncos are moving again.
--Great play call. The Steelers blitzing from the left anf the Broncos throw the screen to that side. Perfect timing...
--Travis henry took a shot to his leg but looks to be ok...2nd and goal...
--TOUCHDOWN BRONCOS!!!TOUCHDOWN BRONCOS!!! Jay Cutler throws his 3rd TD pass of the game and the Broncos answer the Steelers again! BRONCOS 28 -- Steelers 14

Steelers Eighth Drive --

--Steelers backed up as the 3rd quarter comes to an end....

END OF THIRD QUARTER -- BRONCOS 28 -- Steelers 14
