NFL Mixture Trivia Questions

2. The Chicago Bears had a mediocre 8-3 season in 1940. They would go to the NFL Championship game and win with an embarrassing 73-0 blowout. Which team was on the losing end of this?

From Quiz Outrageous NFL Games

Answer: Washington Redskins

None of the other teams were in the NFL in 1940. The Bears scored seven touchdowns from the ground, one from the air, and two via interceptions. It was 28-0 by halftime, and 54-0 at the end of the third quarter.

3. This New Year's baby in 1967 became a Hall of Fame great in the NFL. He played for 11 seasons with the Kansas City Chiefs, and led the league once with his 20 sacks in one season. Who was this linebacker?

From Quiz American Football For Brits

Answer: Derrick Thomas

The others were all quarterbacks in the NFL, long before Derrick was even born. Thomas was drafted fourth overall in the 1989 NFL Draft. Derrick was a nine-time Pro Bowler and had 126.5 sacks in just 11 seasons, but unfortunately died in 2000 as a result of complications from an automobile crash. He was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2009. Namath made his name as a quarterback with the New York Jets (Super Bowl III), Unitas with the Baltimore Colts, and Dawson with the Kansas City Chiefs in their Super Bowl I endeavours against the Green Bay Packers.

4. NFL officials are well known for their black and white striped shirts. What color are their pants?

From Quiz Football Zebras

Answer: black

The NFL uniform for field officials consists of a black and white striped shirt, black knickers (pants), black belts, and black shoes. The referee wears a white cap while all other officials wear black caps. During the 1920s before the striped shirts were adopted, they wore white dress shirts, black bow ties, black dress pants, and black dress shoes.

5. In 2007, quarterback Brett Favre set a new career passing yard mark when he threw his 61,362nd passing yard. Whose career passing yardage record did Brett break?

From Quiz Pigskin Soup

Answer: Dan Marino

The others were 30,000 yards short of even Marino. Dan was a career Miami Dolphin from 1983-1999. He set a season passing record in 1984 when he threw for 5084 yards. Marino was a nine-time Pro Bowler, and was not jinxed with his jersey number 13.

6. Which NFL franchise won their first Super Bowl in the 1980s?

From Quiz NFL by the Numbers

Answer: Chicago Bears

The year that the Chicago Bears won their first Super Bowl was in the 1985 season. Miami won it in 1973 and 1974, Denver in 1998 and 1999, and Green Bay won it in 1967, 1968, and 1997.

7. After 13 seasons with the Giants and Rams, defensive end Bubba Smith left the NFL in 1981 to pursue an acting career. It didn't take long for him to gain a starring role in the television series, "Hunter". Where's the error?

From Quiz NFL: You Find the Error

Answer: The player/actor was Fred Dryer

Dryer made the Pro Bowl only one time, and that was in 1975 in his seventh NFL season. Smith was also a defensive lineman and played for the Colts and Oilers in seven seasons, retiring in 1976. Smith co-starred in a series of movies, "Police Academy".

8. Which quarterback led the Broncos to their first ever Super Bowl appearance?

From Quiz Football Fanatic II

Answer: Craig Morton

In Super Bowl XII following the 1977 season, the Broncos played the Cowboys only to lose 27-10. Number 7 Craig Morton was the quarterback. Hard to imagine anyone other than Elway wearing number 7 in a Broncos' uniform.

9. Which Bear set a quarterback record for rushing 968 yards in the 1972 season?

From Quiz NFL Stuffings #2

Answer: Bobby Douglass

The others were all kickers. Douglass was in his fourth NFL season with Chicago when he grew wings. His arm didn't function as well with his 38% pass completion rate. The Bears finished 4-9-1 for the season.

10. In a stretch of 11 seasons beginning in 1967, this team reached the AFL or AFC Championship game an amazing nine times. In this stretch, they also made it to two Super Bowls. Which team was this?

From Quiz Seasoned Pork Rinds XII

Answer: Oakland Raiders

The other teams did not exist in the 1960s. Under the helm of John Madden in nine of those 11 seasons, the Raiders won a Super Bowl and lost one. In this run, Oakland had an amazing team record of 119-28-7. Their Super Bowl loss was at the hands of the Packers, and their win was over the Vikings.

11. In 1975, the World Football League signed which three Miami Dolphins away from the NFL?

From Quiz Seasoned Pork Rinds X

Answer: Paul Warfield, Jim Kiick, Larry Csonka

All three had played for the Dolphins, were major players, and were on the 1972 perfect-season Dolphin team. They would all come back to the NFL in 1976. Csonka came back to the Giants, Kiick to the Broncos, and Warfield to the Browns.

12. The 1972 Miami Dolphins were the first team to go undefeated in the regular season and the playoffs. Which team went undefeated twice in regular seasons prior, but lost in both championship games?

From Quiz Seasoned Pork Rinds VIII

Answer: Chicago Bears

In 1934, the Bears went 13-0, but lost to the Giants 30-13. In 1942, the Bears went 11-0, then lost to the Redskins in that NFL Championship game 14-6.

13. Who was the first player in NFL history to rush for an average of 100 yards per game in a season, and did it seven times?

From Quiz Seasoned Pork Rinds IX

Answer: Jim Brown

The others never averaged 100 yards per game in a season, even once in their career. Brown, a career Cleveland Brown, did it first in 1958 when he rushed for 1527 yards in only 12 games. Jim would do it six more times, including his final season in 1965. Brown was a nine-time Pro Bowler.

14. Which kicker missed a 47-yard field goal with seconds remaining in Super Bowl XXV, that would have given his Bills the title?

From Quiz Seasoned Pork Rinds VII

Answer: Scott Norwood

The other kickers retired 10 years earlier. Instead of Buffalo winning it all, the Giants pulled out the squeaker, 20-19. The Giants defense weren't tired because the Bills had the ball for less than 20 minutes in the game. Scott lasted only one more season with the Bills and the NFL, retiring in 1991.

15. Which Viking quarterback joined the "30 Interception Club" in his final season in 1978, by giving up 32?

From Quiz Seasoned Pork Rinds V

Answer: Fran Tarkenton

The others were quarterbacks, but never played for the Vikings. In 18 seasons, Tarkenton had thrown over 20 interceptions only twice. In the middle of his career, Fran went to the New York Giants for five seasons before coming back home to Minnesota. In his final season, Fran still threw for 3468 yards and 25 touchdowns, but had the 32 interceptions.

16. The 1972 Miami Dolphins were the first team in history to have two 1000-yard running backs in a season. Who teamed up with Larry Csonka to reach this milestone?

From Quiz Seasoned Pork Rinds III

Answer: Mercury Morris

The others were all big offensive linemen. Csonka rushed for 1117 yards in the season, then Morris finished it out with 991. A couple of days later, a statistician found that Mercury was mistakenly credited with a nine-yard loss, thus, 1000! The Dolphins went 14-0 and took the Super Bowl win against the Redskins.

17. The Rams never regretted grabbing this offensive guard in the 1966 draft. He went to the Pro Bowl 11 times, including his final season in 1978. Who was this former college player from Michigan who wore the number 65?

From Quiz Seasoned Pork Rinds I

Answer: Tom Mack

The others listed were all defensive backs. Mack protected such greats as Roman Gabriel, Bill Munson, John Hadl, James Harris, and even Joe Namath. Tom never went to a Super Bowl, and the Dallas Cowboys squelched his chances four times.
