Friday Fun Trivia Chain

[albionmoonlight]

So I'll post a question, and the first person to get it right can post the next question. And we will just go on like that.

The only twist is that your next question has to be related in some way to the question that came before it. Whether it has to do with the number, or the player, or the team, or the city, or whatever (and it does not have to stay limited to sports).

Anyway, here's the starter question.

The NFL record for receptions in a playoff game is 13. Four players share that record. Without using google or other similar search technology, name one of them.

[Pumpy Tudors]

Herman Moore?

[albionmoonlight]

Herman Moore?

Nope.

[rkmsuf]

jerry rice

[albionmoonlight]

jerry rice

Nope.

[albionmoonlight]

Little hint. None of the four is a wide receiver.

[Butter]

Roger Craig?

[albionmoonlight]

Roger Craig?

Nope. But a great guess.

Also, just so you know, three of these guys are "Oh, yeah, I could see that" guys. Only one of the four is a "WTF, I would have never guessed that in a million years" guy.

[rkmsuf]

Anthony Munoz

[Lorena]

Marshall Faulk?

[Pumpy Tudors]

Since I've already put a guess in there, I'm gonna just look it up. I can't wait to be stunned.

Edit: Hahaha, albionmoonlight is exactly right. You could easily see it happening for three of the four guys, but the other one is a head scratcher, especially considering the team he played for.

[MikeVic]

Terrell Owens?

[albionmoonlight]

No right guesses so far.

Here's some more hints. These are the years and conferences in which the feat occured:

AFC Playoffs-1981
AFC Playoffs-1989
AFC Playoffs-1993
NFC Playoffs-2000 (this is the WTF guy)

[MikeVic]

Yancy Thigpen?

[MikeVic]

haha wait, you said none of the four is a WR.

[Maple Leafs]

AFC Playoffs-1989
AFC Playoffs-1993

Thurman Thomas?

[henry296]

larry centers

[albionmoonlight]

Thurman Thomas?

WINNER!

http://www.nfl.com/superbowl/records/playoffs/player/receiving

Kellen Winslow, AFC-D: San Diego vs. Miami, 1981 (OT)
Thurman Thomas, AFC-D: Buffalo vs. Cleveland, 1989
Shannon Sharpe, AFC-FR: Denver vs. L.A. Raiders, 1993
Chad Morton, NFC-D: New Orleans vs. Minnesota, 2000

ML is up.

[MikeVic]

edit: question over...

Chad Morton?? I always thought he was only on the Jets.

[albionmoonlight]

dola--

I was watching the Chad Morton game. Ricky Williams was out with injury, so Chad Morton was starting as running back for the Saints. The Vikings got way ahead, so they sat back in a deep zone for most of the second half. So Aaron Brooks just kept checking down to Chad Morton. A LOT. 13 times it turns out.

[albionmoonlight]

Actually, Chad Morton is still the all-time NFC playoffs single game receptions leader. That's some obscure-ass trivia right there.

[MikeVic]

Was the 2000 Vikings the team that lost to the Falcons?

[Lorena]

WINNER!

http://www.nfl.com/superbowl/records/playoffs/player/receiving

Kellen Winslow, AFC-D: San Diego vs. Miami, 1981 (OT)
Thurman Thomas, AFC-D: Buffalo vs. Cleveland, 1989
Shannon Sharpe, AFC-FR: Denver vs. L.A. Raiders, 1993
Chad Morton, NFC-D: New Orleans vs. Minnesota, 2000

ML is up.

Dangit, this was my first guess... ugh.

[Pumpy Tudors]

Chad Morton?? I always thought he was only on the Jets.
I guess you missed his time with the Redskins and Giants, too. :)

Besides Chad Morton being the leader, I'm also kind of shocked that Amp Lee wasn't very far behind with 11 receptions in a playoff game, although it happened six years before Morton. I mean, seriously, Amp Lee?

Also, why the hell did I guess Herman Moore? I could've come up with a better guess than that.

[larrymcg421]

Was the 2000 Vikings the team that lost to the Falcons?

No, that was in 1998.

[rkmsuf]

SO ASK ANOTHER QUESTION ALREADY!!!!!!

[st.cronin]

SO ASK ANOTHER QUESTION ALREADY!!!!!!

I thought he had:

why the hell did I guess Herman Moore?

I've been googling this, but I haven't had any luck yet.

[albionmoonlight]

ML is offline.

So anyone who wants to keep it going, go ahead. Remember that the question should have some link (however minor) to the previous question/answer.

[MikeVic]

I bet the answer to ML's question would've been Kerry Fraser.

[Lorena]

Alright, I'll give it a shot:

Who was the only player to play against the Baltimore Colts in their last game at Memorial Stadium and the Baltimore Ravens in their last game at Memorial Stadium?

[larrymcg421]

Scratch that...

[rkmsuf]

Alright, I'll give it a shot:

Who was the only player to play against the Baltimore Colts in their last game at Memorial Stadium and the Baltimore Ravens in their last game at Memorial Stadium?

Chad Morton

[larrymcg421]

Bruce Matthews?

[MikeVic]

That would've been my guess too larry.

[MikeVic]

But I'll guess Jerome Bettis since Mathews is taken.

[Lorena]

Bruce Matthews?

BINGO!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bruce_Matthews_(American_football)#Trivia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bruce_Matthews_%28American_football%29#Trivia)

[Pumpy Tudors]

Shit, I think Bruce Matthews also played against the St. Louis Cardinals in their last game at Busch Stadium, the Los Angeles Rams in their last game at Anaheim Stadium, the Carolina Panthers in their last game at Memorial Stadium in Clemson, the Dallas Texans in their last game at the Rubber Bowl, and the Vancouver Grizzlies in their last game at GM Place.

I remember him having to guard Big Country Bryant Reeves.

[larrymcg421]

Okay, what Miami Dolphins player has the record for most rushing yards in a postseason game during the Marino era (1983-99)?

[Pumpy Tudors]

I remember him having to guard Big Country Bryant Reeves.
lol you watched a grizzlies game

[MikeVic]

Okay, what Miami Dolphins player has the record for most rushing yards in a postseason game during the Marino era (1983-99)?

I know that out of the Marino era, it happened recently... Travis Minor or something like that. The name is in my mind somewhere. But in the Marino era??

Umm... Larry Csonka?

[MikeVic]

lol you watched a grizzlies game

VANCOUVER Grizzlies game. Not a Memphis Grizzlies game.

[larrymcg421]

I know that out of the Marino era, it happened recently... Travis Minor or something like that. The name is in my mind somewhere. But in the Marino era??

Umm... Larry Csonka?

Csonka retired in 1979.

[MikeVic]

Csonka retired in 1979.

Haha I don't know Dolphins' RBs.

[Antmeister]

Okay, what Miami Dolphins player has the record for most rushing yards in a postseason game during the Marino era (1983-99)?

I wouldn't be surprised if it was Dan Marino trying to avoid sacks. But then again, he was slow as hell.

[rkmsuf]

Kareem Abdul Jabbar


either one

[Pumpy Tudors]

VANCOUVER Grizzlies game. Not a Memphis Grizzlies game.
You say that like it makes a difference.

Sadly, the Grizzlies are my favorite NBA team. :(

[Pumpy Tudors]

Okay, what Miami Dolphins player has the record for most rushing yards in a postseason game during the Marino era (1983-99)?
Bobby Humphrey?

[larrymcg421]

Jabbar is #2 on the list and Humphrey is 7th. The Lakers Center didn't quite crack the Top 10.

[albionmoonlight]

Sammy Smith?

[Antmeister]

Maria Conchita Alonso?

[larrymcg421]

Sammy Smith?

We have a winner! Here is the top 10 list:

Sammie Smith - 99 (1990 vs. Buffalo)
Karim Abdul-Jabbar - 95 (1998 vs. Buffalo)
JJ Johnson - 86 (1999 vs. Seattle)
Sammie Smith - 82 (1990 vs. Kansas City)
Tony Nathan - 76 (1984 vs. Seattle)
Aaron Craver - 72 (1992 vs. San Diego)
Bobbie Humphrey - 71 (1992 vs. San Diego)
Tony Nathan - 64 (1984 vs. Pittsburgh)
Bernie Parmalee - 57 (1994 vs. Kansas City)
Joe Carter - 56 (1985 vs. New England)

BTW, Marino has a 7-2 record in these games.

[Antmeister]

It's only the name....just strictly the name.

[Pumpy Tudors]

Grrrr, I was going to guess Smith, and I went with Humphrey. That's OK, I don't have a question lined up anyway.

[albionmoonlight]

Lets go with an easy one here:

The longest run from scrimmage in NFL history is 99 yards (the same as Sammie Smith's total from that playoff game). Who made the run?

[MikeVic]

Bo Jackson?

[larrymcg421]

Tony Dorsett

[albionmoonlight]

Tony Dorsett

Yup

[Lorena]

wow, that was fast

[larrymcg421]

On the same train of thought, ten QB's have completed a 99 yard TD pass. Who is the last QB to do it?

[Lorena]

Brett Favre?

[MikeVic]

In the NFL or CFL?

[MikeVic]

I'll just guess Scott Mitchell.

[larrymcg421]

In the NFL.

Favre threw a 99 yard TD pass to Robert Green in 1995. However, two guys have done it since then.

[MikeVic]

Daunte Culpepper?

[Pumpy Tudors]

Jeff Garcia

[rkmsuf]

herman moore

[Lorena]

Drew Brees

[larrymcg421]

Jeff Garcia

Pumpy got it. Garcia threw a 99 yard TD pass to Andre Davis in 2004. Here is the complete list:

Andy Farkas (from Filchock), Washington vs. Pittsburgh, Oct. 15, 1939
Bobby Mitchell (from Izo), Washington vs. Cleveland, Sept. 15, 1963
Pat Studstill (from Sweetan), Detroit vs. Baltimore, Oct. 16, 1966
Gerry Allen (from Jurgensen), Washington vs. Chicago, Sept. 15, 1968
Cliff Branch (from Plunkett), L.A. Raiders vs. Washington, Oct. 2, 1983
Mike Quick (from Jaworski), Philadelphia vs. Atlanta, Nov. 10, 1985
Tony Martin (from Humphries), San Diego vs. Seattle, Sept. 18, 1994
Robert Brooks (from Favre), Green Bay vs. Chicago, Sept. 11, 1995
Marc Boerigter (from Green), Kansas City vs. San Diego, Dec. 22, 2002
Andre Davis (from Garcia), Cleveland vs. Cincinnati, Oct. 17, 2004

[Pumpy Tudors]

Speaking of the number 99, in 1999, which NFL quarterback led the league in completions even though his team missed the playoffs?

[MikeVic]

Wayne Gretzky?

[Pumpy Tudors]

Wayne Gretzky?
I almost did a Gretzky question and changed my mind because I didn't want the game to stall for the rest of the century.

[Mustang]

Speaking of the number 99, in 1999, which NFL quarterback led the league in completions even though his team missed the playoffs?

Favre? (I knew they were playing from behind alot it seemed...)

[Lorena]

Elvis Grbac?

[MikeVic]

Ok, so I'll assume my answer is wrong. Is the correct answer Trent Green?

[Lorena]

Ok, so I'll assume my answer is wrong. Is the correct answer Trent Green?

If it is, i'm a be pissed cuz that was my first guess but went with Grbac

[MikeVic]

I don't know how far back 1999 is actually... I saw your Grbac after I answered, and thought "oh no, was it really that far back?" I'm completely forgetting what year Green was with the Rams, and then after that with the Chiefs.

[Pumpy Tudors]

Nobody's gotten it yet.

Favre was 2nd in completions, falling 2 short of the leader, even though Favre attempted 24 more passes.

Elvis Grbac was 8th in completions

Trent Green was injured in 1999 and didn't play at all.

[larrymcg421]

Wow, I just looked it up. Gonna take a while for someone to guess this guy.

[rkmsuf]

Nobody's gotten it yet.

Favre was 2nd in completions, falling 2 short of the leader, even though Favre attempted 24 more passes.

Elvis Grbac was 8th in completions

Trent Green was injured in 1999 and didn't play at all.

You'll need the tubes to get this one.

[MikeVic]

Jeff George.

[MikeVic]

Is he still in the NFL?

[Pumpy Tudors]

He is no longer in the NFL. His career spanned from 1988-2003, and he played for six different teams.

[Lorena]

Wow, I just looked it up. Gonna take a while for someone to guess this guy.

I was gonna ask you to guess but you HAD to look it up didn'cha? ;)

[MikeVic]

Steve Beurelin?

[Pumpy Tudors]

Steve Beurelin?
Winner!

[MikeVic]

Holy.

[MikeVic]

Didn't realize he played for six teams actually. I'll think of a question now.

[Pumpy Tudors]

Didn't realize he played for six teams actually. I'll think of a question now.
Raiders, Cowboys, Cardinals, Jaguars, Panthers (with whom he led the league in passing, not just completions), and Broncos.

[RendeR]

Steve Beurlien, Carolina Panthers.

[rkmsuf]

Steve Beurelin?

GOOGLER!

[RendeR]

Damn I'm always to late.

[MikeVic]

GOOGLER!

No, I was thinking Kerry Collins, but he played last year or the year before. And I've always associated Collins with Beurelin.

[RendeR]

Come on with a question already =)

[MikeVic]

Ok, this one will be easy to find since it's from wikipedia... but I found it interesting:

Since 1995 (the year the Carolina Panthers arrived in the NFL), the Panthers have recorded the second-highest number of interceptions in the NFL. Name the team that's #1.

[Pumpy Tudors]

Baltimore? I'm assuming that this is interceptions by the defense, not interceptions thrown by the offense.

[RendeR]

San Fransicso 49ers

[MikeVic]

I did a look of year-by-year stats and it makes sense for the defense.

Both answers are incorrect.

[Lorena]

Ok, this one will be easy to find since it's from wikipedia... but I found it interesting:

Since 1995 (the year the Carolina Panthers arrived in the NFL), the Panthers have recorded the second-highest number of interceptions in the NFL. Name the team that's #1.

The Texans?

[MikeVic]

Nope.

This team has never (since 1995, no idea beforehand) been in the top 5 in total defense (YPG).

[MikeVic]

In 1998, this team was in the top 5 in passing defense (YPG), but in no other year were they.

[CU Tiger]

Patriots?

[MikeVic]

Nope. I'll try to get more hints that don't just give it away. I have a hint in mind that I'm sure would crack the question, but then it would be too easy.

[Mustang]

Vikings?

(They seem to intercept alot... plus, the have Favre so.. ) :)

[MikeVic]

Nope.

I'll cut it in half and say NFC.

[RendeR]

We can only guess once, correct?

[MikeVic]

I think you can guess multiple times? I was doing it. :(

[RendeR]

St. Louis Rams

[CU Tiger]

Eagles

[MikeVic]

St. Louis Rams

Winner! What gave it away?

[rjolley]

Bengals.

[RendeR]

Winner! What gave it away?


Cutting it down to the NFC, there aren't that many NFC teams that regularly chalk up interceptions and the Rams had that unreal offense for awhile which forced teams to throw more.

[RendeR]

Name the first Super Bowl Losing team to out gain (Total yards) their opponents.

[Lorena]

Buffalo Bills

[RendeR]

Buffalo Bills


nope, bonus points if you name the Super Bowl they did it in.

[MikeVic]

There was one year in the late 90s where they had the #1 and #2 interceptions leaders.

[Antmeister]

Denver Broncos

[Antmeister]

Bozeman Kodiaks?

[larrymcg421]

Dallas Cowboys, Superbowl V

I just remember lots of turnovers in that one.

[Antmeister]

Bozeman Kodiaks?
Ooops wrong league

[RendeR]

No, umm, NO, and no.


Even with all those turnovers the Colts outgained the 'Boys before the final FG won it for them.

[Antmeister]

Atlanta Falcons?

[Lorena]

the ravens?

[RendeR]

Nope

[RendeR]

Not the Ravens either. At least they weren't first.

[larrymcg421]

Colts, Superbowl 3? Another turnover game.

[Antmeister]

the ravens?
The Ravens won the Super Bowl.

[Lorena]

the ravens?

whoops, nvm... loosing.. duh

[Lorena]

Jeez, you guys are fast... I was about to delete it.

[Antmeister]

Tennessee Titans?

[Lorena]

Tennessee Titans?

I thought of them but didn't they play the Rams with that potent offense?

[RendeR]

Still no correct answers yet, hurry up =)

Gotta put the lil ones down for naps =)

[Butter]

Steelers when they lost to Dallas in the Neil O'Donnell-to-Larry Brown game?

[Lorena]

packers?

[RendeR]

Nope and Nope

[RendeR]

I had no idea this would be so difficult ;)

[MikeVic]

Falcons losing to the Packers?

[Lorena]

modern era? cmon, throw us a bone dangit

[RendeR]

Clue: It was an AFC team.

[Lorena]

the broncos

[rkmsuf]

wouldn't it have to be the bengals

[RendeR]

Nope, been guessed already

[RendeR]

wouldn't it have to be the bengals


DING!

Super bowl 16

Niners down the Bengals 26-21

Cincinnati compiled 356 yards to San Francisco's 275, which marked the first time in Super Bowl history that the team that gained the most yards from scrimmage lost the game.

[RendeR]

Ok, time to change and putthe kids to naps.

[Lorena]

Oh Duh... my own husband guessed it.

The Patriots when Drew Bledsoe was still QB.

[Maple Leafs]

Re: Dolphins RB's in the Marino era, didn't Lamar Smith have a playoff game where he went apeshit and had like 200 yards, including an OT winner? Or was that regular season.

[MikeVic]

Oh Duh... my own husband guessed it.

The Patriots when Drew Bledsoe was still QB.

(I think the question is over).

[MikeVic]

Re: Dolphins RB's in the Marino era, didn't Lamar Smith have a playoff game where he went apeshit and had like 200 yards, including an OT winner? Or was that regular season.

that's who I was thinking of. I think that was with Fiedler or something.

[larrymcg421]

Re: Dolphins RB's in the Marino era, didn't Lamar Smith have a playoff game where he went apeshit and had like 200 yards, including an OT winner? Or was that regular season.

Marino never played with Lamar Smith.

edit to add:

It was a postseason game in 2000. Lamar had 40 carries for 209 yards and 2 TD in a 23-17 win over the Colts.

[Lorena]

(I think the question is over).

It was an attempt to pad my post count :)

[Lorena]

Where's our question Pappa Smurf?

[Pumpy Tudors]

Bozeman Kodiaks?

CARL PICKENS

Chad Morton?? I always thought he was only on the Jets.

Wasn't he one of the Jetskins?

[Lorena]

Is it Boomer?

[rkmsuf]

CARL PICKENS

no

[Maple Leafs]

WINNER!
ML is up.
Sorry I was away and missed my question.

Here's one to make up for it: Not counting the strike year replacement players, name an NFL team that has never had a black QB throw a pass for them.

Rams?

[Pumpy Tudors]

Oh, dear God. I just looked up the answer the rkmsuf's question. And he thought my question had an obscure answer...

[Butter]

Jim Breech?

Larry Kinnebrew?

[Pumpy Tudors]

Rams?
That was my first (real) thought to ML's question.

[Passacaglia]

Rohan Davey would like to have a word with you.

So would Michael Bishop.

[MikeVic]

So would Michael Bishop.

Oh geez Bishop threw for them? I hope he gets injured early this week.

[Passacaglia]

Oh geez Bishop threw for them? I hope he gets injured early this week.

Yeah. I think he was MVP one year.

[Pumpy Tudors]

So would Michael Bishop.
Can we really call Michael Bishop a quarterback? I mean, really? The man once led the AFL in rushing, for crying out loud.

[MikeVic]

Yeah. I think he was MVP one year.

Huh what? He was in the NFL that long?? What?

[rkmsuf]

Neil Rackers?

right track, wrong player

[MikeVic]

Can we really call Michael Bishop a quarterback? I mean, really? The man once led the AFL in rushing, for crying out loud.

He better suck at QB in the game this weekend against Winnipeg then. If he does good, I'll blame you.

[Maple Leafs]

Tony Banks.

[MikeVic]

right track, wrong player

Shayne Graham.

[MikeVic]

The racist Bills.

[Passacaglia]

Huh what? He was in the NFL that long?? What?

I dunno -- I just remember hearing about it from this guy (http://www.operationsports.com/fofc/member.php?u=219).

[Pumpy Tudors]

For ML's question, I was going to guess Chicago, but then I remembered that Henry Burris sitcom from a few years ago. So I guess my next guess is going to be Buffalo.

Edit: MikeVic beat me to it.

[rkmsuf]

Shayne Graham.

nope

This may be a stupid question, but...I take it we're not considering Kordell Stewart to be a quarterback, either?

[MikeVic]

This may be a stupid question, but...I take it we're not considering Kordell Stewart to be a quarterback, either?

Hey hey, no Kordell jokes.

[Maple Leafs]

The racist Bills.
James Harris

[Butter]

Doug Pelfrey?

[Maple Leafs]

This may be a stupid question, but...I take it we're not considering Kordell Stewart to be a quarterback, either?
He was 70% QB. Combined with Charlie Batch, who's 30% black, that covers the Steelers.

[MikeVic]

No idea who that is.

[rkmsuf]

Doug Pelfrey?

Point, winner!

[MikeVic]

Aha! 49ers!

[rjolley]

For ML's...the Packers

[Maple Leafs]

The 49ers and Packers are the correct answers.

The Giants were there too until this year (Anthony Wright).

[Butter]

somebody who answered Maple Leafs question can post one, I just got busy... sorry.

[Passacaglia]

He was 70% QB. Combined with Charlie Batch, who's 30% black, that covers the Steelers.

I was actually responding to Pumpy's comment about the Bears. It's nice that most people forgot he played here -- I think all Bears fans would rather you all forget.

[MikeVic]

I guess I'll go again... name four players to have switched teams from the 49ers to the Oakland Raiders.

[Pumpy Tudors]

I was actually responding to Pumpy's comment about the Bears. It's nice that most people forgot he played here -- I think all Bears fans would rather you all forget.
As Kordell-ish as Kordell Stewart was, A Night With Henry Burris was the funniest television program I'd ever seen in my life.

[Pumpy Tudors]

I guess I'll go again... name four players to have switched teams from the 49ers to the Oakland Raiders.
Hmm... four is gonna be tough, but I'll take a stab at it:

Jerry Rice
Ronnie Lott
Roger Craig
Charlie Garner

[MikeVic]

Hmm... four is gonna be tough, but I'll take a stab at it:

Jerry Rice
Ronnie Lott
Roger Craig
Charlie Garner

Damnit winner.

[MikeVic]

I had Jim Plunkett too.

[Pumpy Tudors]

In each of Charlie Garner's three years with the Raiders, he and one other running back finished #1 and #2 on the team's rushing list for that season. Name the running back who split carries with Charlie Garner in 2001, 2002, and 2003.

For clarification, I'm just looking for one name here. It was the same guy who split the carries with him every year.

[Passacaglia]

Tshimanga Biakabatuka?

[Pumpy Tudors]

Tshimanga Biakabatuka?
In a sense, you're very close.

[Maple Leafs]

Tyrone Wheatley

[Pumpy Tudors]

Tyrone Wheatley
Correct.

I called Tim Biakabutuka a close guess because they both went to Michigan, and they were first-round draft picks one year apart. Wheatley in 1995 and Biakabutuka in 1996.

[Passacaglia]

Yeah, I picked the wrong one. :-P

[Pumpy Tudors]

Damn, I'm just pissed off because nobody had to come up with a way to connect a question to Doug Pelfrey.

[MikeVic]

Great, has Trivia Killer ML struck again?

[albionmoonlight]

I used to love hearing video Pat Summerall have to get through Biakabutuka's name on Madden.

[Maple Leafs]

Wheatley is second in Michigan history in TDs, behind who?

[Ramzavail]

Chris Perry?

[CU Tiger]
