Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What team was the last undefeated club, winning its first six games?

Answer: Miami Dolphins

The Dolphins began 1992 6-0, and supplanted the Bills as AFC East Champions. But Buffalo would get the last laugh in January.

2. What NFC team won its first four games, won its final four games, and finished 3-5 in between?

Answer: Philadelphia Eagles

The streaky Eagles started hot and finished hot, even winning a Wildcard game in New Orleans, but lost to Dallas in the Divisional Playoffs.

3. Who was the 1992 NFL Defensive Player of the Year?

Answer: Cortez Kennedy

Kennedy, part of a 1992 Seahawks team that finished 2-14, led a defense that was actually rather respectable. The offense, on the other hand, was one of the most inept of the 1990s.

4. Who did not attempt a pass for the Atlanta Falcons during the 1992 season?

Answer: Bobby Hebert

Hebert played on a Saints team that reached the postseason in 1992. Atlanta, on the other hand, was plagued by inconsistency at the quarterback position one year after making the playoffs themselves.

5. The 11-5 San Diego Chargers won the AFC West in 1992. In what game did the Chargers achieve their first victory?

Answer: Fifth game

The 1992 Chargers began 0-4, then caught fire to win 11 of their final 12 games. After shutting out the Chiefs in the Wildcard Round, San Diego was shutout themselves the next week in Miami.

6. What team sent four linebackers to the Pro Bowl in 1992?

Answer: New Orleans Saints

New Orleans was the classic example of underachievement in 1992. The 12-4 Saints sent Rickey Jackson, Vaughan Johnson, Sam Mills, and Pat Swilling to the Pro Bowl. They were only a handful of points away from being undefeated, losing all four games by a total of 13. And in the end, they allowed 26 4th quarter points in a 36-20 Wildcard loss at home to Philadelphia.

7. What team lost 24-3 at home in the Divisional Playoffs?

Answer: Pittsburgh Steelers

The Steelers, in Bill Cowher's first season as head coach, finished 11-5 and secured a first round bye, but lost to the Bills by three touchdowns one week after Buffalo overcame a 35-3 deficit against Houston.

8. Which of the following statements is true about the 1992 AFC Championship game?

Answer: Buffalo's Bruce Smith had 7 tackles, 1.5 sacks, a forced fumble, and a blocked pass

Smith was the games star, as he helped lead the Bills to an easy victory over AFC East foe Miami, 29-10.

9. Which of the following statements is true about the 1992 NFC Championship game?

Answer: Dallas & San Francisco totalled over 800 net yards

The first of three straight NFC title game matchups between the two teams, Dallas and San Francisco's offenses came to play, netting over 800 yards. The visiting Cowboys won the game 30-20.

10. Which of the following statements is true about Super Bowl XXVII?

Answer: Buffalo commited 9 turnovers

The Bills commited 9 turnovers in this lopsided 52-17 defeat, the last of which was a fumble returned nearly for a touchdown by Leon Lett until a hustling Don Beebe caught up to strip the ball away at the 1 yard line. Dallas also wore its white jersey in this Super Bowl; the only time the Cowboys wore their blue jersey was in their Super Bowl V loss to the Colts.
