This one was live on Sky Sports in the UK and was a chance for Martin Gramatica to connected on two monster fieldgoals in the fourth quarter to make the difference. Warren Sapp knocked his friend Brett Favre out of the game with a sprained foot, and although back-up Matt Hasselbeck threw a score to Bubba Franks, the win was secure.
