Trivia for October 3, 2021

Question

Tom Brady and Bill Belichick won Super Bowls together. Tonight, they go against each other for the first time. Who are the only other three quarterbacks who have started and won Super Bowls, then later started games against that franchise, with the Super Bowl winning head coach still in place? One of the three should be pretty easy. For the other two, each won one championship, and there was only one Super Bowl played between those games.

Answer

Joe Montana, Trent Dilfer and Brad Johnson. In 1994, Montana directed Kansas City to a 24-17 win over San Francisco (with George Seifert still coach). In 2005, Brad Johnson and the Vikings opened the season by losing to Tampa Bay (with Jon Gruden). Later in the 2005, Trent Dilfer and the Browns went to Baltimore (Brian Billick) and lost 16-3. Other quarterbacks have won Super Bowls and then played against those teams, but without the head coach element, including: Jeff Hostetler, Jim McMahon, Brett Favre, Kurt Warner, Mark Rypien and Peyton Manning.
