Well we hope you get to looking up those Packers than have done the leap on plays other than TDs!Manning MarinoBreesCulpepperBradyare my on the spot guesses without looking anything up
1999 and 2001Favre and Marino have to be on the list. I'd guess Warner but I'm not sure if he ever played 16 games.
There is one WTF, but another who has fallen from enough grace that you forget he was once had that type of production since in theory he should still at least an OK NFL QB.If Brady plays and throws a TD pass next week vs Miami, he becomes the 6th QB to throw a TD pass in all 16 games in a season. Who are the other 5? IMO, 4 you can just say "yeah, ok." The 5th kind of stunned me.
I guess they haven't talked about "the streak" in your neck of the woods.Favre did it once and also had seven seasons where he threw a TD pass in all 15 games he played in and two more seasons where he did it in all 14 games he played in.![]()
That's 10 seasons, 149 games played, 149 games with 1 or more TD passes.
Right. They will be rushing TD'sIn 2011, the answer will be Tebow. NOT.
Stump your friends and win some bets with these not so well known facts.Favre did it once and also had seven seasons where he threw a TD pass in all 15 games he played in and two more seasons where he did it in all 14 games he played in.![]()
That's 10 seasons, 149 games played, 149 games with 1 or more TD passes.
Given these clues, I'll try to go QB and yearcoolnerd said:There is one WTF, but another who has fallen from enough grace that you forget he was once had that type of production since in theory he should still at least an OK NFL QB.thejag said:If Brady plays and throws a TD pass next week vs Miami, he becomes the 6th QB to throw a TD pass in all 16 games in a season.

Lynn Dickey is not right -- he threw 32 TDs that year, but the Pack was held to 3 points in one of their games. That was my first thought for the "WTF?" guy.Given these clues, I'll try to go QB and year:
Dan Marino, 1984 & 1985
Kurt Warner, 1999
Brett Favre, 1997 or 1998
Carson Palmer, 2004 (the year he hurt his knee in the playoffs)
Lynn Dickey, 1983
That was 47 straight games that he played in, not 47 straight games played by the Colts. I think Unitas only had 1 season where he threw a TD in every game.JohnnyU said:Not sure, but Unitas did it in 47 straight games![]()
Also, the trivia question is for 16-game seasons. Unitas played 12-game and 14-game seasons.That was 47 straight games that he played in, not 47 straight games played by the Colts. I think Unitas only had 1 season where he threw a TD in every game.JohnnyU said:Not sure, but Unitas did it in 47 straight games![]()
Not sure I understand why he would be that guy. He had a string of great years for Seattle. He's still somewhere around #10 or #12 in total passing TDs.Hooper was right about Dave Krieg's 1984 ... I guess he was the "WTF?" guy.
I would guess that you are more familiar with Seattle than most of us. I think of Dave Krieg on a national scale as good QB with a couple of good years.Not sure I understand why he would be that guy. He had a string of great years for Seattle. He's still somewhere around #10 or #12 in total passing TDs.Hooper was right about Dave Krieg's 1984 ... I guess he was the "WTF?" guy.![]()
nah wasnt that culpepper's first year? with moss and cris carter, plus his ability to run for a score, by himself he won tons of games.....i dont think anyone would be a wtf guy, i mean it's not like you have to be awesome, just consistent, i'd bet more often that not krieg's games were not multi touchdowns.if Josh Freeman throws a td against new orleans next week, then he would be 1 game away (early in the season vs pitt) from doing the same thing.Confirmed via profootballreference:
Dan Marino, 1984 & 1986
Dave Krieg, 1984
Kurt Warner, 1999
Brett Favre, 2003
Daunte Culpepper, 2004
...
Still looking up the rest. Was Culpepper the "WTF?" guy, or is there someone more surprising?
EDIT: Hooper was right about Dave Krieg's 1984 ... I guess he was the "WTF?" guy.
He's thrown a TD in every NFL game he's startedfdctrumpet said:In 2011, the answer will be Tebow. NOT.
Another odd Dave Krieg factoid. He has the most games with 5+ TD passes (5 times).Dave Krieg is 10th all time in TD passes. Shouldn't be surprising to anyone.
