    The two Squealers, check.   Not Griese. 

  • Aaron Rodgers 

    Troy Aikman

    Troy Aikman

    Rodgers, Check.   Not Aikman.    He is down the list a bit. 

    Only 2 more names.  

  • Graham, maybe Starr.

  • Graham, maybe Starr.

    Graham, maybe Starr.

    No, neither.  Otto had  14  post season TDs.   (Remember, they only played one single postseason game then.  QBs since then have had to play in 3 , maybe 4 postseason games each year.  Starr played half of his career under the same situation...and the Packers were really a grind it out running attack.

    So: hint:   think of some of the most prolific passing offenses in history. 

  • Marino, Favre, Moon, Kelly

  • Marino, Favre, Moon, Kelly

    Marino,  Check.   Favre already named.    Not Moon/Kelly...they are down the list, but not far.

    If Moon didn't play in Canada or those years, he'd be on the list. Threw the nicest ball I've ever seen.

    Moon had a 3-7 lifetime playoff record with 17 touchdowns and 14 interceptions in the NFL.

    That's pretty pedestrian.  

  • For some reason I'm going to throw out Kurt Warner, but I just don't remember him playing in that many playoff games to get 30 touchdown passes...

    Remember the old thinking good defenses win super bowls well here's the first 20 games, it used to be true way back when.  Then along came the Steelers, 49ers era and the West Coast offences !

    Betting went from bet the under to take the niners and the over -and- the overs went from the thirties to the fifties in no time including the extinct St. Louis Cardinals and the greatest show on turf with former Arena League star Kurt Warner.....my golden era of professional football.    🙂

    Even though I guessed him, I'm still kind of surprised he played enough playoff games to make the list. Either he played in more than I thought, or he was prolific as hell in the ones he did play in. 

    Edit: So I looked up his playoff record, and man is it impressive. He went 9-4 in 13 playoff games, throwing for 3952 yards (304 per game) and 31 touchdowns vs 14 interceptions, with a 102.8 QB rating.

    Well, remember, I believe he did start in  3 SB games.  So you have to make a long run of at least 3 games each time you play in a SB (win or lose).

    Yeah, I totally forgot that he went to two Super Bowls with the Rams. The Patriots started their run by beating them in 2001. 

  • Here is Today's Trivia Question.  Not dissimilar to yesterday's. 

    Name the Top  10....actually 11 with ties,  Running Backs who have scored the most Rushing Touchdowns.....In Postseason Play.  So.  11 names.

  • Super Bowl Era?

    T. Thomas, E. Smith, J Bettis, M. Allen, F. Harris

  • Super Bowl Era?

    T. Thomas, E. Smith, J Bettis, M. Allen, F. Harris

    Any era,  but because of expanded playoffs, yes, they are all from the Super Bowl era.

    And, by the way.....all 5 of your guesses are correct.  Check.
