The Gipper Posted March 19, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2020 15 hours ago, Gorka said: You are saying QB's that have started, not starting QB's correct? If so then Errol Morrall is one. Errol Morral was not the starting QB for the Dolphins (Bob Griese) or Colts (Johnny U) when he won Super Bowls for both teams. I am saying they have to have started a Championship game for 2 different teams. Earl is not one, as, while he may have started playoff games for both Colts and Dolphins, he only started a Super Bowl game for the Colts ..in SBIII...to be replaced by Johhny U. He did not start a SB for the Dolphins. Bob Griese started all three. Johnny U did start the game for the Colts that they won over the Cowboys (SB V, maybe?) But, hint....who started that game for the opponent that Unitas beat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gipper Posted March 19, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2020 Nick Foles now traded to Bears. With that defense, and if they put a few weapons around him could he join Warner, Peyton, Morton...and the 4th mystery man as a QB that starts in a Title game with 2 different teams?

Browns149 Posted March 19, 2020 Report Share Posted March 19, 2020 I guess Jim Plunket falls in the Len Dawson category. He won 2 SB’s with the Raiders. 1 in LA and 1 in Oak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gipper Posted March 19, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2020 Here is today's trivia: Tom Brady, Cam Newton (apparently) , and Nick Foles and Joe Flacco also, are active QBs who have started in a Championship Game (in their case, a Super Bowl). Each of these QBs are now on to playing with another team, hoping to again reach a championship game perhaps (Super Bowl) as a starter in the Super Bowl game for their new team. There have been 4 Quarterbacks in history who HAVE started in a Championship game (both in SB and pre-SB era)...win or lose. for two different franchises. (note: Len Dawson started...and won championships for both the Dallas Texans, and the Kansas City Chiefs...but that is considered a single franchise) Name these 4 Quarterbacks. Answers: You all got: Peyton Manning started for both Colts and Broncos.....won one for each Kurt Warner.....started for both Rams and Cardinals....won with the Rams, not Cards Craig Morton......started for both Cowboys and Broncos.....lost with both And here is the last guy: Tobin Rote.....started for both Lions and Chargers. Won with both (Lions...over Browns, Chargers AFL title). Only one besides Peyton to win Championship with two teams. Free to merge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gipper Posted March 19, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2020 Today's question follows a theme of previous questions, and there are a lot of answers, but you all should get a lot of these quickly: 25 Quarterbacks in history have started and won 2 or more championships. Name as many of these QBs as you can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
