Empty-Handed

Two ProUtes came away empty-handed from Super Bowl XLV. Stevenson Sylvester almost recovered a fumble on Pittsburgh's first punt, but the Packers held onto it. Sly played on special teams but didn't make a tackle. Chris Kemoeatu missed this tackle on Nick Collins as he returned an interception 37 yards for a touchdown, putting Green Bay up 14-0. Kemoeatu also missed his block on the play as Howard Green struck Ben Roethlisberger on his release, resulting in the interception. Kemoeatu made a couple of key blocks later in the game: one was a block in the back, which drew a 10 yard penalty, and the other was pulling to open the hole on Rashard Mendenhall's 8 yard TD run in the third quarter. Pittsburgh's O-line played pretty well without injured center Maurkice Pouncey, as the Steelers outgained the Packers in net yards (387 to 338) and rushing yards (126 to 50). They only gave up one sack and converted 53% of their third downs, but they could not sustain the drive in the final two minutes.
