    5 play-off wins as a franchise. That stunned me.

    That was awesome. Right guy, Jackie Roosevelt Robinson, played his first game that counted at Roosevelt Stadium, Jersey City. There's a plaque in the gated community there now commemorating the event.

    And since they’ve made two Super Bowls, there must be at most three seasons where they won a playoff game. That’s brutal.

    Exactly. I'm born in 1971, so I remember them having two really good QBs and making two SBs. I thought they were decent.

    They had one in the bag against Pittsburgh a few years back, until Burfict and Pacman decided to be complete clowns in the fourth quarter.

    Seven different quarterbacks wearing No. 12 have combined to win 18 Super Bowls. How many can you name?

    And which jersey number is second on the list of Super Bowl victories?

    Yogi and Dale Berra and Ray and Bob Boone are two. The Virgils are not.
