I would say the rapist,at this point, is borderline HOFer. Plunkett won 2 Superbowls, and he's not in the HOF. Plunkett also won the Heisman and was the #1 pick in the draft.

The rapist will get in after another 5-10 years of playing, but if he retired or was forced to quit right now, he's no lock for the HOF

No, agreed. No lock now. Though, every single QB that has appeared in 3 SBs that is eligible for the HOF has gotten in so far:

Elway/Bradshaw/Montana/Staubach/Kelly/Aikman/Griese.

The only others with 3 appearances are Kurt Warner and Tom Brady, both not eligible.

BR has been in 3 and won 2. Warner has been in 3 and lost 2...including that pivotal one when they both went down the field to score in the last couple of minutes that BR won.

So, if you had to compare BR and Warner....that single moment may give BR the edge.

The rapist will get in after another 5-10 years of playing, but if he retired or was forced to quit right now, he's no lock for the HOF

Q#3: Several past SB QB matchups could join the 10 games mentioned above including these matchups that have already occurred:

Elway vs. Favre

Brady vs. Warner

Brady vs. McNabb

Brady vs. Eli Manning

Brees vs. Payton Manning

Warner vs. Roethlisberger

Rodgers vs. Roethlisberger

The shakiest is probably #3. McNabb is a borderline Hall of Famer

Q#5. Here is the list of title game appearances by all current teams since 1933, including NFL titles/AFL/AAFC/Super Bowls (and includes the upcoming Niners/Ravens game:

Redskins 11

Patriots 8

Rams 8

Steelers 8

Cowboys 8

49ers 7

Colts 7

Eagles 6

Bills 6

Broncos 6

Lions 5

Dolphins 5

Raiders 5

Chargers 5

Vikings 4

Titans/Oilers 4

Chiefs 3

Cardinals 3

Bengals 2

1950 Browns vs. Rams

1952 Browns vs. Lions

at first I thought Soldier Field, but then I remembered the Bears moved to soldier field in the early 70's. So it had to be Wrigley

These three are all the right answers (though you left off a few QBs)

Starr vs. Dawson, Griese vs. Staubach, Staubach vs. Bradshaw, Unitas vs. Namath, Bradshaw vs. Tarkenton, Aikman vs. Kelly, Stabler vs. Tarkenton,

I was looking for a number, though I appreciate the names.

FYI, I did not technically count Unitas vs. Namath because Unitas did not start, but did come in like at halftime...but I will hereafter recognize it. Also, Stabler is not in the HOF, so that one doesn't count. (You can make your argument for the Snake to be elected...and I will probably buy it, but so far the HOF election committee has not)

For the SEC add Kenny Stabler and Bart Starr.

Drew Breese played in the Big 10

$300,000 per second- not a bad deal for the network to recoup some of that money you sent Goodell's way.

For the SEC add Kenny Stabler and Bart Starr.

Just going for the low hanging fruit. Yes Griese from Purdue- but he missed Brees who also went there. And shame on anyone who doesn't remember Brady went to Meeechigan, yuk. Probably a couple more I missed.
