Sky's The Limit were led to their 10.8 point victory by a 22.0 point effort from Ben Roethlisberger, who beat the Tennessee Titans defense for 331 passing yards and 2 passing TDs in addition to 14 rushing yards. They also got help from a 21.8 point effort from Hines Ward, who beat the Tennessee Titans defense for 109 receiving yards and 1 receiving TD.

"We made a statement here today," Sky's The Limit coach Brian Prescott said.

Pale Force were helped out in a losing cause by a 25.6 point effort from Drew Brees, who tore apart the Detroit Lions defense for 351 passing yards and 2 passing TDs. They also got help from a 21.9 point effort from Antonio Bryant, who beat the San Diego Chargers defense for 127 receiving yards and 1 receiving TD.

"We got a wake-up call," Pale Force coach Jim Gaffigan said.

Compounding the issue, Pale Force could have scored 143.5 points and earned the win with their best lineup, but Jim Gaffigan left key players like Kevin Smith and his corresponding 17.1 points on the bench.

Pale Force drew the short straw with their schedule this week, as their point total would have resulted in a win against 9 out of 10 other potential opponents in week 16.

This brings the record for Sky's The Limit to 10-3, and drops Pale Force to a record of 11-2.
