In the second quarter, the Chiefs fought back scoring two touchdowns and not allowing the Lions to score. In the second half, the Lions restricted the Chiefs to a field goal each quarter, whilst scoring a touchdown in each quarter themselves. Lions won 21-20.

Answer: Philadelphia Eagles

The Eagles narrowly lost the previous season's Super Bowl 38-35. At the start of the 2023 season, they were mooted to be contesting it again in February. This looked good in week 12 when they were at 10-1, better than any other team in both conferences. However, they faded and lost five of their last 6 games. Some of their losses were blowouts. In week 14 they lost to divisional rivals Cowboys, 33-13. The week before they lost to the 49ers 42-19.

14. Who won NFC South in 2023?

From Quiz The 2023 Regular NFL Season Part 2

Answer: Tampa Bay Buccaneers

NFC South has some unusual statistics. Between 2002 when the current teams formed NFC South, and 2023, each team won at least three divisional titles and reached the Super Bowl at least once yet each team had an overall losing record. Their respective stats were Tampa Bay: 6, 2 (2002,2020), 267-424-1 New Orleans: 7, 1 (2009) 375-438-5 Atlanta: 4, 1 (2016) 365-461-6 Carolina: 5, 2 (2003, 2015) 195-204-1 NFC South is the only NFC conference that does not have any of the 12 franchises that predate the American Football League in 1960. In 2023, there was a closeness in competition between three of the teams. The Saints had led the first half of the season leading 5-4 to the Buccaneers and Falcons at 4-5. On the last game of the season against the Falcons, the winner was still a chance of making the playoffs if other results went their way. The Saints won 48-17, finishing with 9-8 knocking the Falcons out of the playoffs. The Buccs were inconsistent: they had a good start at 3-1, lost four straight and six out of seven but then won six out of their last seven finishing the same as the Saints on 9-8. Both had 4-2 records for their division but Tampa Bay had a better conference record: 7-5 against Minnesota, Chicago, Detroit, Green Bay, Atlanta, Carolina, Houston, Tennessee, Jacksonville, and Indianapolis, while New Orleans is 6-6 against the same teams. Tampa Bay was seeded fourth in the playoffs, and New Orleans finished ninth behind Seattle who also finished 9-8.

16. The league leader for most rushing yards in the 2021 season was this running back for the Indianapolis Colts.

From Quiz NFL 2021 Season

Answer: Jonathan Taylor

Jonathan Taylor led the league with 1,811 rushing yards. He rushed for 18 touchdowns on the ground and also added 360 yards receiving with 2 touchdowns for a total of 20 touchdowns during the season.

From Quiz 2021 NFL Passing Leaders

Answer: Jalen Hurts

Hurts threw a 91 yard pass to Quez Watkins in a 17-11 loss to the 49ers in week 2. Hurts helped the Philadelphia Eagles to a 9-8 record, earning a trip to the playoffs. They were defeated in the Wild Card round against Tampa Bay with a final score of 15-31.

18. The Los Angeles Rams did not have a good first half of the season in 2023 (3-9 W-L record), yet they won seven of their last eight matches. Which team, perhaps not surprisingly, was the only team to defeat them in those last eight games?

From Quiz The 2023 Regular NFL Season Part 2

Answer: Baltimore Ravens

In 2022 the Rams went 5-12 for the season and looked to be having a similar season in 2023 when they were at 3-6 going into their bye week. However, in their last eight games, they beat all three of their divisional rivals. This included a week 18 one-point win over divisional leaders the 49ers (21-20) to leapfrog over the Seahawks in week 17 to come second in their division. Their record of 10-7 was enough to be seeded sixth in the NFC playoffs. The Seahawks were travelling comfortably at 6-3 at the halfway point of the season but they then lost four in a row to the Rams, 49ers (twice) and the Cowboys. This meant that they needed to win their last four games to stay ahead of the Rams and clinch second place. However, a surprising loss to the Steelers in Week 17 meant they finished 9-8 which meant they came eighth in the NFC and missed the playoffs.

19. Which quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs won the 2022 regular season AP NFL Most Valuable Player award?

From Quiz NFL 2022 Season

Answer: Patrick Mahomes

Patrick Mahomes led the Kansas City Chiefs to a 14-3 record and the #1 seed in the AFC. He threw for a league-leading 5,250 yards and 41 touchdowns during the regular season.

Aaron Rodgers was traded to the Jets for the 2023 season so backup QB Justin Love became the starting quarterback.
