There have been 49 Super Bowl champions. But only one of those teams managed to win it all with a quarterback that was in his first season with the team. Can you name that team?
Trent Dilfer with the 2000 Ravens remains the only quarterback to win a Super Bowl in his first season with a new team. Dilfer, the 6th overall pick in 1994, spent six years in Tampa Bay before joining Baltimore in 2000. At the time, Tony Banks was the Ravens quarterback, but Dilfer took over during the team’s 8th game.
There have been seven other quarterbacks who have won Super Bowls in their second season with a team. How many can you name?
