Name the dumb obscure player....

Player #1: I played two years in the NFL. The only 'stat' I accumulated was I once recovered a fumble. And I returned the fumble 94 yards for a TD.

Player #2: I led my team in INTs as a rookie. My second year I got hurt after playing in three games, and never played again in the NFL. My team would eventually win the Super Bowl that year without me.

Player #3: I played 3 full seasons in the NFL as a backup TE, then I played as a replacement player in 1987. I never scored a TD and had only 6 career catches, but I was a good special teams player. I have a soundbite in a prominent NFL Films video. I was also a TE in college, and had 37 receptions in my career.

Player #1 is Greg Best.

Player #2 is Ricky Churchman

Churchman and Best are correct!

Player #4: This linebacker had two 'win-sealing' INTs in the last 3 minutes of a postseason game against an opponent who lost only 1 game in the regular season.

Lance Mehl?

Correct!

Ohhhh! Tricky! I was racking my brain on this one thinking of non championship 13-1 and 15-1 teams that this question would apply to and didn't even think of 1982.

#MeTwo ... haha. Was going all the way back to the 53 Browns to find a team with one loss!

Me three. I started thinking maybe it was a trick question like one of the interceptions was called back by a penalty.
