Trivia for December 9, 2020

Question

When Ben Roethlisberger started his first Super Bowl game (against Seattle) he completed only 9 of 21 passes for 123 yards. Who are the only other two active quarterbacks who’ve started Super Bowls and not completed more than 50 percent of their passes?

Answer

Jared Goff and Cam Newton. Newton in a 24-10 loss against Denver in February 2017 completed 18 of 41 passes, with an interception and 6 sacks. Goff in a 10-3 against New England in February 2019 completed 19 of 38, with an interception and 4 sacks. The Patriots (who now have Newton at quarterback) and Rams are scheduled to play on Thursday; it will be their first meeting since that Super Bowl game.
