Question
In the Super Bowl era, what are the only two teams that have started Hall of Fame quarterbacks in consecutive games? That is, one week they started a quarterback who went on to be enshrined in the Hall of Fame, and the next week they started a different quarterback, who also went on to be inducted at Canton.
Answer
49ers and Chargers. San Francisco, I trust, most were able to sniff out (with Joe Montana and Steve Young). San Diego is more difficult. Johnny Unitas is best known for his work with the Baltimore Colts, but his last four starts came for the Chargers in 1973. Then they turned things over to youngster Dan Fouts, who went on to have a great career of his own. The Colts and Chargers, of course, will tangle tonight on MNF.
