| Anyone know of any great books or DVDs about the really early years of the NFL? I was watching the NFL Films "Lost Treasures" series and there was a lot of interesting footage from the pre-merger era. It's tough to find good footage from that era since NFL Films (and television in general) was just getting started. |

| I am dumbfounded by the fact that Steve Beuerlein didn't do this in 1999 for the Panthers. |

| never thought i would see weinke's name on any list that was of high passing stats. |

| Weinke surprised me, not just because he was the one who did it, but also because I thought he'd mostly faded out by 2006, figured Delhomme would have been the guy to do it at that time. |

| Beuerlein did do it for the Panthers. Weinke was never close. |

| @FastEddie: Beuerlein did throw for 431 yards as a member of the 1993 Phoenix Cardinals, but "only" got as high as 373 yards as a Panther. Weinke surprisingly did throw for 423 yards in his first of three starts as a Panther. It's amazing what a little fact-checking on pro-football-reference.com can do. |

| I know the Lions haven't had a great quarterback since Bobby Layne, but it took them until 1995? They've been in existence since 1934! |

| @Caedus, to me the shocker was that it was Scott Mithcell who did it for the Lions. He must have had a lot of protection that game because he was not known for being mobile, a lesson Brian Billick learned early on as head coach of the Ravens. |

| As a Lions fan, my favorite Mitchell quote came from a Baltimore reporter who said that he had "the decision-making of a Vinny Testaverde, the arm of a Trent Dilfer, and the mobility of a Tony Siragusa". That guy was freaking BRUTAL. |

| @barnztormre,
That sounds like something Mike Preston would say. He's been known to be "brutally honest" during his years at The Baltimore Sun. |

| Thank you for putting these is chronological order. Far too many quizzes put the most recent first. Sports did happen before 1980 (hint hint espn) |
