Trivia for January 7, 2018

Question

Buffalo plays at Jacksonville today, and it’s a fun matchup in that neither team has been in the playoffs in 10 years (the Bills go all the way back to 1999). This has happened only one other time in the Super Bowl era. Who were the teams involved in that 1978 game? One of those wild-card teams was playing in its first-ever playoff game. The other was playing in its first playoff game since winning a league championship in the distant past. Neither one of these teams has ever won a Super Bowl.

Answer

Looking for Atlanta and Philadelphia. The Falcons were formed in 1966, and that was their first playoff game – a 14-13 win at Fulton County Stadium. The Eagles won their last NFL title in 1960 against the Packers (and missed the postseason in the 1961-1977 seasons).
