Re: Looking for a QB
I think Chris was asking about all interceptions but you're just talking INTs run back for a touchdown, right?Wendell02 wrote:There are many "twos", but only three "threes". Bart Starr to Lem Barney, Charley Johnson to Bobby Bell and (if you count playoffs), Donovan McNabb to Ronde Barber. As for Pastorini and Riley, none. Pastorini was picked by Andy Russell, Bill Thompson, Glen Edwards, Jimmy Warren, Barney and Ronnie Lott. Riley picked Brian Sipe, Jack Thompson, Jim Plunkett, Lynn Dickey and Pat Sullivan.
Couple more tidbits. Tom Landry pick sixed Otto Graham twice. The Woodson's, Rod and Charles, stole from the most QBs (11), but no one beats Willie Brown for quality. All five came against HOF QBs (Tarkenton, Dawson, Bradshaw and Griese (twice), and three were in the playoffs.

Re: Looking for a QB
I remember hearing some time ago that Dan Fouts to Steve Foley topped the list.ChrisBabcock wrote:Just curious... What is the most occurring QB to interceptor combo in NFL history?I compiled a list for those returned for TDs. So far I have 2,803 in the regular season. With the Dorow answer, I'm down to 49 missing passers, all before 1937.
I would think Dan Pastorini to Ken Riley has to be pretty high on the list.

But note that Anderson was the right halfback, not the QB.Sonny9 wrote:Wendell02 wrote:I only have 2 of 6 involving Buffalo teams, either the All-Americans or the Bisons. Not sure if these teams are considered the same franchise.

Thanks! I should clarify that I'm looking for the passer, regardless of position.Sonny9 wrote:Wendell02 wrote:I only have 2 of 6 involving Buffalo teams, either the All-Americans or the Bisons. Not sure if these teams are considered the same franchise.
