Monday Night Football: Giants, Steelers tied 9-9 at halftime

The Giants and Steelers have both scored touchdowns. They just haven’t scored touchdowns that count.

The teams combined for six field goals in the first half and are tied 9-9 at halftime.

The Steelers gained 237 yards and the Giants 183 in the first half, but Pittsburgh went 0-for-3 in the red zone and New York was 0-for-2.

Steelers kicker Chris Boswell kicked field goals of 31, 25 and 27, and Giants kicker Greg Joseph was good on kicks of 29, 39 and 44 yards.

The Steelers had an 11-yard touchdown throw from Russell Wilson to George Pickens nullified by a facemask penalty on offensive lineman Broderick Jones with 11:35 left in the first quarter.

With 12:55 left in the half, Daniel Jones found Chris Manhertz for a 16-yard score. But Malik Nabers was called for an illegal shift to negate the touchdown.

The Steelers also recovered a touchdown after Pickens’ right foot fumbled twice, but his left foot never touched inbounds as Giants defensive back Deonte Banks pushed him out of the back of the end zone. Officials initially called it a touchdown, but replay assist quickly corrected it.

Steelers coach Mike Tomlin threw his red flag anyway and forfeited a timeout to challenge a play that is automatically reviewed.

Wilson has completed 11 of 18 passes for 131 yards and has hit seven different receivers, and Najee Harris has run for 82 yards on 10 carries.

Jones is 11-of-16 for 141 yards, with Darius Slayton catching three passes for 90 yards.
