  • Here is today's trivia question.  

    The Top 25 seasons in terms of Most Passes Completed in a Season  are held by   just   11 QBs.   (so obviously several QBs are on the top 25 list more than once)

    Name these   11  QBs.     And to make it easier for you:   Every one of those 25 seasons  has been in this century.  So no need to think about going back too far.

    Would one be Mayfield as a rookie ?  And maybe Mahomes,  Rodgers, Wilson, Watson ?

    It's definitely a passing game now more than ever.

    GO BUCKEYES, BROWNS, INDIANS, CAVS, YSU, NAVY and yes I like ND!

    Only  Brees and Peyton are correct.   That is right.  Brady is not in there.   And remember what I said:  none before the year 2000...so that would have eliminated Moon and Montana and maybe Marino right there.

    But, surprisingly...none of the names you mention are on the list. 

  • Only 2 out of 11 named so far.....bad considering you only has to deal with names who have played in the 2000s. 

  • Couch ?  No since Couch time to do the "R/O" thinking.

    Tricky but not a bad question.

  • Don't let this distract you from the the fact that in 1966, Al Bundy scored four touchdowns in a single game while playing for the Polk High School Panthers in the 1966 city championship game versus Andrew Johnson High School, including the game-winning touchdown in the final seconds against his old nemesis, Bubba "Spare Tire" Dixon.

    I just couldn't resist!?

    And the real life version of Ed O'Neal's story, he was at Ursuline HS when my cousin was there and at YSU between my undergraduate and graduate years.  And his early life story:. 

    O'Neill was born into an Irish-American Catholic family in Youngstown, Ohio.[4][5] His mother, Ruth Ann (née Quinlan), was a homemaker and social worker, and his father, Edward Phillip O'Neill, was a steel mill worker and truck driver.[6] O'Neill attended Ursuline High School before transferring to Worthington High School and winning a state championship, earning the name Ed O'Winner and winning a football scholarship to Ohio University, where he majored in history, also joining the Mu chapter of the Delta Tau Delta fraternity.[7] O'Neill left Ohio after his sophomore year; he spent more time playing sports and partying than studying,[7] and also feuded with his coach.

    He transferred to Youngstown State University, where he was a defensive lineman. While an undergraduate, O'Neill pledged Delta Sigma Phi and was initiated into the Delta Sigma chapter there. Rumors abound that he was an avid partier.[6] O'Neill was signed as an undrafted free agent by the Pittsburgh Steelers in 1969 but was cut in training camp.[5][6][8] Later, on Married... with Children, O'Neill played a former high-school football star who had failed to make it big and constantly reminisced about his "glory days" at Polk High ("I once scored four touchdowns in a single game"). As part of this theme, former Pittsburgh Steelers great and Pro Football Hall of Fame quarterback Terry Bradshaw also made two guest appearances on the show. Bradshaw also made an appearance in O'Neill's Modern Family. O'Neill worked as a substitute social studies teacher at Ursuline High School before becoming an actor.[6]

    CareerEdit

    O'Neill in 2010

    O'Neill re-enrolled at Youngstown State after being cut by the Steelers and was one of the first students at the school's then-new theater program. In 1979, he played a boxer opposite Danny Aiello in the Broadway play Knockout. It was there that he was seen by director William Friedkin and landed his first movie role, as a police detective in Cruising, starring Al Pacino........

    And I scored  4 TDs in a game when I was in 6th grade in PeeWee League  Football.
