...Answer questions and create your own...Try not to cheat. Apologies if this is a DB.

I'll start with a four-pack. Answer these, make some more.

1) Four different receivers have the Super Bowl record of 11 receptions in a game. Name them and the Super Bowl in which they achieved the feat.

2) Four quarterbacks that were drafted first overall have won multiple Super Bowls. Name the two that did it with teams other than the ones they were drafted by.

3) Several players have recorded multiple interceptions in the Super Bowl, only one has two interceptions returned for touchdowns. Who is it?

4) Matt Millen won Super Bowls for four different cities, name them. (Hint: None of them are called "Detroit)

No. 2 is easy: John Elway, Denver (drafted by the Colts) and Jim Plunkett, Raiders (drafted by the Patriots)

And No. 3 is Tampa Bay safety Dwight Smith.

New question:

The final answer to No. 1 shouldn't take too much research.

As for the rookie coaches. George Seifert is definitely one but I think there was another. Ray Malavasi comes to mind but so does Tom Flores and both might have been second year guys.

4. John Fox is the other, I believe.

 

[Baron Scicluna]

I believe Don McCaffery was also a rookie coach when he led the Colts to the win in Super Bowl V.

Next Question While we're searching for a final number on the last question and whoever can complete Question No. 1:

[Flying Headbutt]

Dallas: Craig Morton, Roger Staubach, Danny White, and Troy Aikman
Washington: Kilmer, Theisman, Doug Williams, Mark Rypien
NYG: Simms, Hostetler, Kerry Collins, Eli Manning

 

[Huggy]

Wasn't Eli Manning drafted first overall by the Chargers?

 

[outofplace]

Wasn't Eli Manning drafted first overall by the Chargers?

Yes, but he only has one Super Bowl victory. The question was which guys have more than one.

 

[Huggy]

Ah, of course. Must read the question more closely.

I believe the fourth person from question one is Andre Reed ...

Reed has the record for most catches in the first quarter (tied with Darrell Jackson) but he's not the fourth on that list.

Are you thinking of Stanley Wilson? I don't think he was arrested. One of the assistant coaches found him coked up and they left him off the roster for the game. That led to a permanent ban from the league.

It was Eugene Robinson of the Falcons who actually got arrested the even of a Super Bowl, but that was for solicitation, not drugs.
