The Gipper Posted January 9, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2018 I think this is easier than the previous quiz.....a lot of the choices are limited to just the 8 teams/QBs that are still in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of the 8 teams remaining in the playoffs....which one has best postseason record in history...won/loss percentage? Patriots were 32-19 (now 33-19) which is .627...and second best overall to the Ravens B. Which one has the worst? Vikings were 19-28 for .404 (now 20-28) 2. Of the remaining 8 teams, name the only ones that won a "Pre-Super Bowl" championship. The Eagles won 3 NFL titles: 49/49/60. And the Tits/Oilers won the first two AFL titles: 60/61 3. A. Of the remaining 8 teams, which one has played in the most Super Bowls? Patriots have played in 9 SBs.....this is the most of any NFL team. B. Which one has played in the fewest? Jaguars...played in none 4. Of the 8 remaining teams, which ones have never lost a Super Bowl game? Jaguars....play in none, lose none...and the Saints who are 1-0 5.

They will not get that chance this year. 6. There have been 6 Double Overtime games in playoff history. Name the only home team to ever win a double OT playoff game. (5 of the 6 have been won by the road team) The Cleveland Browns. In the 1986 playoff game vs. the Jets. (all other double OT postseason games won by road team) 7.

Which of the 8 remaining starting QBs in this year's playoffs....was an undrafted free agent? Case Keenum....still alive. I believe...IF he makes it to the SB...that he would be only the 2d or 3rd UDFA to start a SB. 10. Aside from the one that is the answer to #9....which of the other 7 starting QBs was not drafted by the team he will be starting with? Drew Brees....drafted by the Chargers.

In theory, this year, the Falcons could come back and win the Super Bowl after having lost it last year. What is the last team to have accomplished that feat? the 1972 17-0 Miami Dolphins. They had lost the SB to the Cowboys in 1971...but came back the next year to win it all...the last team to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
