    The Pittsburgh Steelers may be fine without the suspended Ben Roethlisberger for the start of the season.

    Byron Leftwich and Dennis Dixon combined to lead three long touchdown drives after Roethlisberger made his exhibition season debut, and the Steelers defeated the Giants, 24-17, on Saturday night, spoiling New York's first home game in its new $1.6-billion stadium.

    Roethlisberger, suspended for the opening six games of the regular season, was solid in his first game since the suspension was announced.

    He completed six of eight passes for 76 yards and an interception and led the Steelers (2-0) on a 13-play, 58-yard drive that ended in a 26-yard field goal by Jeff Reed.
