	i swear, testaverde is an answer in every quiz...that guy sure got around

	Yeah, that whole Vick thing gives you a lot of room to talk about the JETS. In their 42 years of existence, the Falcons have compiled a record of 262–386–6 with division championships in 1980, 1998 and 2004. Most impressive. Enjoy your upcoming 8-8 record.

	I hope they make a quiz for Eagles' QBs next

	does anybody else remember former Jet Punter/QB great Tom Tupa?

	i do remember tom tupa, best quarterback/punter ever

	Wow, I'm surprised that more people have gotten Pennington than Favre considering that Farve going to the Jets was all everyone was talking about last year

I wouldn't hate on the Jets...they are going to be good next year. Rex Ryan has done some good things over there. Only real hole I see, ironically, is the QB position. We'll see what Sanchez can do.

	@montecarlo: also being a Falcons fan, I'm not sure how you or I have the right to say being the fan of any other team sucks. At least 29 of the other 31 teams, including the Jets, have had consecutive winning seasons at least once in their histories.

	Ben, might I suggest a quiz on Cardinals starting QBs since they moved to Arizona? They've used more than the Bears, I believe, which also have a quiz, including two people who played the majority of their careers as punters.

	Poor Jets. My college roommate is a Jets fan so Ive got kind of a soft spot for them.

	Ben26:	May 19th, 2009 at 19:44 GMT	6 points
	damn, was hoping sanchez would be a bonus

	Living in New York, people give me a hard time for liking the Ravens instead of the Jets, but I still did pretty well. Hopefully one day we can get a Ravens QB quiz, even though there would only be like ten answers :)

	Fun quiz - would love to see a pre-Brady Pats QB quiz next; I'm sure there are some pretty interesting names on it!

	dudes, please read the sarcasm in all of my sporcle posts ever. as a born-n-raised ATL fan, ive had to endure the falcons, the hawks, and the braves (in the 80s). through 29 years of living, my teams have 1 national championship (braves make 14 straight postseasons, and win just once), falcons made it to the superbowl once and got busted for hookers, and the hawks, well... i still get pissy about wilkins getting stiffed in the dunk contest against jordan. i mean seriously, my teams are so bad, i dont whine about actual meaningful games, i whine about dunk contests. so please read my original comment more as a sympathetic-self-loathing post to the jets fans out there.

	I remember Tupa too, but he was nowhere close to being the best quarterback/punter. That would be Sammy Baugh.

	Just End The Season

	JohnJF:	May 19th, 2009 at 20:50 GMT	3 points
	I got Rick Mirer and did not get Brett Favre. What is wrong with me?

	RyanUR:	May 19th, 2009 at 21:04 GMT	3 points
	I don't think I can think of the Jets without thinking about Mike Greenberg anymore. Also, any team that would hire Rich Kotite as a head coach deserves its losing ways.

	elgato10x:	May 19th, 2009 at 21:13 GMT	2 points
	Interesting fact: Tom Tupa was the first player in NFL history to score a 2 point conversion.

	MikeW:	May 19th, 2009 at 21:15 GMT	-1 points
	Only the Jets are dumb enough to come out of the draft having traded away as many players as they drafted (three). In other words, their draft netted them zero players. Has that ever even been done before?

	@tinoman: QBs after Namath is the title of the quiz... That's like saying, sandwiches other than PBJ and wondering why peanut butter & jelly isn't listed.

	Morbo:	May 19th, 2009 at 21:36 GMT	2 points
	Retread city, man. I only know of four of the top 10 who started their careers as Jets. And most of the guys toward the bottom of the list are in the Who's Who of 1980s and 1990s backups.

	J-E-T-S, Jets, Jets, Jets

	When you're a Jet, You're a Jet all the way. From your first cigarette. To your last dyin' day...

	danzam:	May 19th, 2009 at 22:46 GMT	5 points
	I didn't know Frank Reich started for the Jets. I'll always remember him as the starting QB for the Bills in "the comeback" playoff game against the Oilers where the Bills overcame a 35-3 deficit in the third quarter to win the game in overtime.

	drn211:	May 19th, 2009 at 23:25 GMT	2 points
	This game has an error. Richard Todd only started 94 games (98 if you count his playoff appearances)

	SowCrates:	May 20th, 2009 at 00:17 GMT	3 points
	As a Bears fan, I can sympathize with Jets fans...if it weren't for Cutler, I'd be saying that they should be sympathizing with me, since Chicago's list is even worse

	I tried typing Namath at least three times before looking up and seeing the "since Namath" qualifier.

	Maybe Someone Can make a quiz about all the Primary QB's, that play in the NFL now.

	Nuclear_Knuckles:	May 21st, 2009 at 22:37 GMT	4 points
	Maybe Someone Can make a quiz about bizarre, capitalization and Grammar, .

	poor Jets

	Blackhawks:	May 24th, 2009 at 17:10 GMT	0 points
	I meant it like this: Patriots : Tom Brady Colts: Peyton MAnning Giants: Eli Manning and so on.. maybe someone can do this, it would be interesting

	While this is pretty bad, I would say it's nowhere near as bad as the Bears. They got a lot of games out of a few of those quarterbacks, and I believe Esiason, O'Brien (who they got a good number of years out of), and Testaverde all made Pro Bowls with the team. Not every team can have an All-Pro, MVP-caliber, Super Bowl-winning quarterback. I'm a Steeler fan, and between Terry Bradshaw and Ben Roethlisberger (over 20 years) we basically had a long list of bad, mediocre, or decent quarterbacks who were one-year wonders (Maddox, Kordell).
