Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger led his team to the sixth championship in franchise history.

A Fantastic Finish!

An amazing conclusion to the final football game of the year left Steelers fans celebrating while Cardinals fans pondered about what went wrong.

ESPN.com's Gridiron Playoff Challenge concluded with the completion of Sunday's game and all rosters that had Kurt Warner in their QB slot were very happy. Warner had a Gridiron Playoff Challenge best score of 37 in the final round thanks to his three touchdowns and 377 passing yards. Warner's counterpart, Ben Roethlisberger, earned 14 points.

Wide receivers also generated some big Gridiron Challenge Playoff points for their owners. Larry Fitzgerald and Santonio Holmes were the two highest-scoring wide receivers in the final game, earning 24 and 19 points, respectively.

Playing Gridiron Playoff Challenge is easy, but the toughest part is finalizing your roster before the Conference Championships. Rosters locked at kickoff of those games and so predicting the teams in the final game would be crucial to victory. Selecting the teams that move on from that week is pivotal to an entry's success.

Unofficially, the "Roy" entry is the Gridiron Playoff Challenge Grand Prize winner! Boasting a roster that included Warner, Fitzgerald and Holmes, not to mention the 13-point scoring Steelers defense, "Roy" managed a final week score of 107 points. Although that entry was short of the 121-point high score (held by the runner-up), four very impressive scoring periods propelled "Roy" to the top of the leaderboard. Owner A. Roy selected all Cardinals and Steelers in the championship, but had one exception: Donovan McNabb.
