CLEVELAND, Sept. 14 (UPI) -- Ben Roethlisberger was 12-of-19 passing for 187 yards and a touchdown pass to Hines Ward Sunday in the Pittsburgh Steelers' 10-6 win over Cleveland.

Ward caught five passes for 60 yards, Santonio Holmes had five catches for 95 yards and Willie Parker carried the ball 28 times for 105 yards for the Steelers (2-0).

Derek Anderson was 18-of-32 passing for 164 yards and no TDs, but also threw two interceptions for the Browns (0-2), who have managed just one touchdown in losing their first two games of the new season at home.

Pittsburgh went up 7-0 in the second quarter after Roethlisberger hit Ward with an 11-yard scoring strike, and then made it 10-0 in the third quarter on a 48-yard field goal by Jeff Reed.

Phil Dawson kicked a 31-yard field goal in the third and then hit from 38 yards out with less than four minutes to play to cap the scoring.
