Billy, thank you for giving me a reason to live.

I'll be trying to answer these. No cheating, no Google lookups.

[ChuckyTheGoat]

what nfl team played in 6 super bowls never cashed a ticket?
...Honestly, not sure about this question. You're saying there's a team that went 0-6 ATS?
what 2 teams played together in 3 superbowls?
...Dallas/Pittsburgh. Two: Staubach vs Bradshaw, plus: O'Donnell vs Aikman.
BIggest favored win in sb?
...I believe it's the 1994 Niners. Closed somewhere around -18.

Biggest dog winner?
...Has to be the 1968 Jets. Something like +22 depending on the reports.

Largest margin of victory?
...I believe it's Niners vs Broncos, +45 pts. 55-10?

Highest total points?
...I think it's that Niner/Charger game in 1994. Niners built up a big lead, Chargers scored some garbage pts. 45-26 (if I recall) = 71 pts.

Biggest come back ever?
...I honestly don't recall a lot of HUGE comebacks in the SB. I think the 1986 Giants set the record. They trailed 10-0 vs the Broncos, but rallied after halftime to dominate the 2nd half.
...But my answer is the 2022 Chiefs. Think they came back from a bigger deficit. 11pts? Maybe even more. In the modern NFL, points come so easy. So, my answer is the 2022 Chiefs.

How many super bowls won by 1 point?
...1990 Giants beat Bills by 1 pt. Really think that's the only one. So, just one game.

lowest total score?
...I believe it's the Minn/Pitt game. 16-6 = 22 pts.

how many teams have never even played in a superbowl name them also
...This is a somewhat loaded question, b/c of Re-location and Expansion:
1) Detroit Lions.
2) Cleveland Browns* (* = original browns re-locating to Baltimore)
3) Jacksonville Jaguars. They were an expansion team.


worst QB in season to play in a superbowl?
...Hate this question. I always think about a Team win. How can a team WIN with a bad QB?
...The most common answer = Trent Dilfer on the Ravens. I differ b/c he played very well in the playoffs.
...Want to hear a name that didn't have a STELLAR career? Jim Plunkett. Won two Super Bowls, but he was on the fringe when he became starter in 1980 after Pastorini got injured.
...Worst QB to play on the LOSING side of a SB? Common answer would be Rex Grossman (Bears).

best defense ever in season that won a SB?
...Statistically, that answer has to be the Ravens (over the Giants). Great defense.

what team was only 1 to win after losing the sb year before?
...That would be the 1971 Cowboys. Lost to the Colts, then came back to beat the Dolphins.

ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm thtas all i have answers be given tomorry

New York Jets (+18-+18.5) over Baltimore Colts in Super Bowl III

Despite a Super Bowl record-tying 18-point spread, Jets quarterback Joe Namath guaranteed a victory before this game. It’s safe to say that worked out for Broadway Joe. The 13-1 Colts entered the game riding a 10-game winning streak and were fresh off a 34-0 victory in the NFL Championship Game. New York jumped out to a 16-0 lead before Baltimore added a late TD for a 16-7 final score.


New England Patriots (+14) over St. Louis Rams in Super Bowl XXXVI i had this one rams lost to tampa bay at home on mnf


yup only giants vs bills 20-19 dog giants won bills 0-4 s/u and ats in 4 superbowls boy was i rich those 4 years

I love you Chucky, you know this, but I can't help myself here...

Chucky, if NFL trivia is giving you a reason to live, then more power to you but you need to find other interests as well to go along with that.
Not for nothing, I knew most of those answers, but not all.

Good trivia list Billy Boy.

OK, Billy, my retort:

1) I understand your list of teams. Hard to include the OLD Browns...since they won a title as the re-located BALT Ravens. Not sure why I forgot about the HOU Texans.

2) I forgot about the Patriot rally vs Atlanta. I watched so much of the old Steve Sabol NFL Films. Sometimes, the more recent games are less memorable for me.

3) Really think your Ram stat is incorrect. They're not 0-5-1. Only five appearances, should be 0-4-1 (depending on what the closing lines were). I think they might even have two pushes, if you count the Ram/Titan game and the Ram/Bengal game. "Hey, Von. I'm Joe."

Good stuff, Billy. Thank you. Just a few more notes:

*I got the Niner/Charger score wrong. But that was in fact the highest-scoring game. Niners scored so easily in that game, that mercenary Niner team was truly one of the best SINGLE-season teams ever. Chargers were trying to steal one hell of a backdoor cover. But Humphries' last pass went out of the endzone.

*That Jet/Colt game was in the early spread era. Game was truly seen as a foregone conclusion. If you say +18, OK, I think it might have been even higher.

[ChuckyTheGoat]

One of my favorite Super Bowls that history gets wrong frequently = Super Bowl 14.

People think the Rams were overmatched. Really didn't play out like that. Rams played a great game.

Key play in the game was the Ram defense knocking Swann out of the game. This was the fourth Steeler Super Bowl game. Swann had already made the acrobatic catches in the first three games.

With Swann out of the game, Bradshaw had to resort to Stallworth as his deep threat. Those passes normally would have gone to Swann. People knock Noll as a guy with a championship roster, but he made the key decision in the 4th qtr.

Noll was very familiar with the Ram's tight bracket coverage. The hard-hitting coverage that knocked Swann out of the game. Noll told Bradshaw that they had to hit a home run to win the game.

Man, Bradshaw was good in the clutch situations. He threw an inch-perfect pass to Stallworth for the touchdown. And after Ferragamo threw the INT, Bradshaw hit Stallworth AGAIN on the long-gainer that set up the Franco TD (which also got them the cover).

Here's one.

What franchise has never had a WR selected to a Pro Bowl?

[asiagambler]

Here's one.

What franchise has never had a WR selected to a Pro Bowl?

Baltimore Ravens

[stevenash]

^
Yes

[asiagambler]

Patriots won Super Bowl 53 after losing the year before

[asiagambler]

^
Yes

That franchise is cursed at drafting wide receivers. Some real bad ones over the years

Breshad Perriman, Travis Taylor, Mark Clayton (not terrible but nowhere close to 1st round worthy), Patrick Johnson just to name a few

Who's the best WR they ever drafted? Torrey Smith ? Brandon Stokley ?

Unless you count Darren Waller though that's another tragic tale for Baltimore considering Gruden basically stole him off their practice squad

[asiagambler]

Baltimore Ravens

Wow I just realized this is incorrect

Devin Duvernay made Pro Bowl in 2021 and 2022 but as a returner

So in the future, the question should be worded as "What franchise has never had a player selected to a Pro Bowl as a wide receiver?"

[stevenash]

I knew that but not a WR selected as a WR though.

That's valid.

[asiagambler]

That's valid.

Just being nitpicky lol. I think most people would understand what the question's asking either way

What do you think about Zay Flowers ?

Can he make a Pro Bowl ?

I like Flowers, not quite Pro Bowl talent (yet)

Tell you who I do like.
Darren Waller as my starting TE for my Gee-Men.

He gives my guy Daniel Jones a quality target to go to.
I love everything about Bellinger, but given the choice, it's a no brainer.

This is the thing that annoys me.
People that say he can't throw a deep and accurate long ball, which is so untrue.
I'd love to see what Joe Montana could have done with the Swiss Cheese o-line and hands of stone wide outs DJ had to deal with his first couple of years.

When you're running for life on virtually every down one of these three things are going to happen.
You're going to get smashed from behind or worse and fumble, you're going to get picked because you're running for your life and have to get rid of the ball, or you're going to get concussed.

All three did happen by the way.
Officially DJ wasn't concussed, but was in protocol numerous times.

Watch what Dimes does now that he has decent blocking, a TE that can catch, and some young studs that have talent at WR

[asiagambler]

Waller was a very good signing. About time Giants got a pass catcher for Jones. NYG one of the worst receiver rooms last several years

[ChuckyTheGoat]

Nash, what do you think about the Giants +3 in week 1?

One of those tricky games. It's a game where people could say EITHER team is over-priced. I'm a huge Barkley fan, not sure people realize how unique his talent is.

I'm a homer, so take this with a grain of salt.
NYG + POINTS.

Nashy, think I'm like a lot of guys. Going stir-crazy without Football.

I thought the Cowboys were fortunate to get such a good run with the backup QB. Think the Giants showed some things last year. As the game plays, I believe the +3 will play out like a pk-em.

[Otters27]

0-6 has stumped me.

Vikings Bills im not confident

I pointed out that Billy was wrong on that one. Rams (btw Los Ang and St Louis) won the NFC 5x. 0-4-1 ATS in five SB appearances.

[stevenash]

Dan Marino played 17 seasons all with the Dolphins.
Only once in those seventeen years did the Dolphins have a 1000 yard rusher.

Name the RB?

OK, I'm going thru the names in my head.

Who I DON'T think it is. Tony Nathan or Keith Byars. They caught more passes (than ran).

Only one name sticks out to me. And I could be wrong for sure. Sammie Smith? If memory serves, I think he had at least one good year.

No worries, Billy.

I hope you're getting revved up for NFL season. I'm marking down all your theories and testing them out.

I do think there's a chance that Marc Lawrence jinxed the Dolphins. It's just that it will likely take injuries to derail the Dolphins. Might not take much for Tua (or Hill).

Giants have the most horrendous wr core in the nfl. Every year I hear giants fans get hype about their team. It's amazing how some teams continue to make the same mistakes again and again and again. They had an opportunity to go out and get beckham and they didn't. They have an option to get hopkins and they're not doing it.

You actually think someone like Darren Waller is gonna carry you to a title? Lol. The guy isn't good, he had 1 good year in his entire career and ppl think he's a great player or something. Darren Waller will be forgotten 15 yrs from now.

Billy, you're anti-Giants?

Guy made the Giants relevant for first time in a while. A lot of Coughlin's players hated him...until he won.

[jackpot269]

Patriots won Super Bowl 53 after losing the year before

So did Dallas there were 2 of those

[jackpot269]
