Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Which kicker won the 2008 NFL scoring title?

Answer: Stephen Gostkowski - Patriots

The others did not top the 100-point mark, but Gostkowski did with 148 while kicking a league-leading 36 field goals. David Akers of the Eagles took a backseat with 144 points.
2. For only the second time in NFL history, a quarterback threw for over 5000 yards in a season. Which quarterback did this in 2008?

Answer: Drew Brees

Brees was in his third season with the Saints. An amazing 5069 yards, Drew was still runner-up in the record books to the career record of Dan Marino. Marino of the Dolphins threw for 5084 yards in 1984. Neither Cassel, Garrard, or Pennington threw for even 4000 yards, but four others did reach that plateau in 2008.

They were Kurt Warner (4583), Aaron Rodgers (4038), Philip Rivers (4009), and Peyton Manning (4002).
3. In 2007, the rushing title went to LaDainian Tomlinson, 133 yards ahead of his runner-up. His runner-up in that season won the rushing title by 61 yards in 2008. Who was this?

Answer: Adrian Peterson

The others just barely topped the 1000-yard mark. Peterson had another strong season with the Vikings and rushed for 1760 yards. Michael Turner of the Falcons was the 2008 season's runner-up by rushing for 1699 yards.
4. Who scored the most touchdowns in the 2008 season?

Answer: DeAngelo Williams

The others weren't in the top 30. Williams of the Carolina Panthers rushed for 18 and caught for two more. His closest competitor was running back Michael Turner of the Falcons who scored a total of 17. Williams was still three short of Randy Moss' 23 which led the league in 2007.
5. Who was the best defensive thief and led the league in interceptions in 2008?

Answer: Ed Reed

The others all intercepted three each. Reed was in his seventh season with the Ravens. In 2008, he equaled his best of nine picks in the 2004 season. Nick Collins of Green Bay was the runner-up with seven interceptions.
6. In 2007, T.J. Houshmandzadeh of the Bengals and Wes Welker of the Patriots shared the receiving title with 112 receptions each. Welker was the runner-up in receptions to which receiver in 2008?

Answer: Andre Johnson

The others had less than 90 receptions in the season. Johnson, the Texans wide receiver caught 115 passes. It was Andre's sixth season in 2008, and the second time that he topped the 100-mark.
7. 2008 was a slow season for kickoff returners, and only one player scored two touchdowns in the season. Which Oakland Raider was this?

Answer: Justin Miller

Janikowski was the Raiders' kicker, and the other two were Raider quarterbacks. Miller led the league with only two in 2008. His longest was a 92-yarder. In 2007, Andre Davis of the Texans and Leon Washington of the Jets both shared the league lead with three each.
8. This bruiser finished third in solo tackles in 2007, then led the league in 2008. Who was this?

Answer: Jon Beason

Although finishing third in total tackles, Beason of the Panthers took the bragging rights for solo tackles with 110. D'Qwell Jackson of the Browns led the league in total tackles with 154.
9. Defensive end Jared Allen of the Kansas City Chiefs did not repeat from the 2007 King of Sacks. Which player in 2008 had the most sacks in the season?

Answer: DeMarcus Ware

The others had less than half the total of what Ware of the Cowboys had. DeMarcus had an amazing 20 sacks in the season. However, it wasn't just sacks that he made a dent in. He had 84 total tackles, with 69 of them being solo. Joey Porter of the Dolphins had 17.5 sacks to be the runner-up.
10. Which quarterback took the unfortunate title of throwing the most interceptions with over 20 in 2008?

Answer: Brett Favre

The others didn't throw 10. Favre of the Jets threw 22 interceptions to match his 22 passing touchdowns. It was Brett's first season with the Jets after spending 16 seasons in Green Bay. In 2005, he threw 29 picks with the Packers. Bronco quarterback Jay Cutler was the runner-up in 2008 by throwing 18.
