Question

Tampa Bay plays at Chicago tonight, creating the unusual situation of two quarterbacks who started in a Super Bowl against each other (Tom Brady, Nick Foles) facing off with now both on new teams. This kind of rematch has happened only once before; who were the quarterbacks involved? In said game, one of the quarterbacks didn’t start but came off the bench and passed for 258 yards and 2 TDs.

Answer

Kurt Warner and Steve McNair. The Rams beat the Titans in Super Bowl XXXIV, with Warner leading the way. In 2007, they were with the Cardinals and Ravens. With Arizona trailing, it pulled starter Matt Leinart and plugged in Warner. In the 1993-94 seasons, one of these matchups was in play, with Joe Montana and Boomer Esiason, but Kansas City and the Jets didn’t play in either one of those seasons. Nor did Trent Dilfer and Kerry Collins cross paths in the remainders of their careers after Ravens-Giants Super Bowl (the year after Warner-McNair).
