PrintAnother Tuesday, another Tuesday Morning Bills Trivia. Normal disclaimer: feel free to try and look up facts and cheat, but all I ask is this: If you do feel the need to cheat, please do not post your ill-begotten answers in the comments section. Give others the chance to figure them out honestly. It really annoys me to see all the answers filled out early by somebody who cheated. Cheat if you must, just hold off on posting your answer.
Also, a side note; I will now be using former Bills coaches as well. I have been doing this long enough that it can get tough to find players that I haven't already used, so I will now throw coaches into the mix. Good luck.
Mystery Player/Coach 1
- I attended Furman College.
- I was involved in the 1988 AFC championship game.
- I played for five different NFL teams during my career.
- I played for the Wheeling Ironmen.
Mystery Player/Coach 2
- I attended IUP.
- I was originally a fifth round draft choice.
- I played for two NFL teams, finishing my career with the Bills.
- I am currently the head coach of a NCAA Division I FCS school.
Mystery Player/Coach 3
- I attended EMCC.
- I scored 54 career touchdowns.
- I was a first round draft choice.
- I was on two Super Bowl winning teams.
Mystery Player/Coach 4
- I was a Gator.
- I played for two different NFL teams.
- I scored nine career touchdowns.
- I was drafted in the ninth round.

#2
I know because I know him…Jim Haslett.
I know the first 2 as well but seeing I’m first, I will not post.

ooops
“currently a an NCAA coach”….rules out Haslett although he did go to IUP I need more coffee.

I totally cheated on #1, but wow, is that cool. Wheeling Ironmen – what a great team name.

Why is there a picture of C.J. Spiller at the top of the page?
No weekend spent pantsless is a wasted weekend.
Because every post needs a picture.

yeah. it’s not a Bill….but the pic works well for this me thinks.

Completely agreed.

I must be missing the point
But how does Matt Schaub fit?
~K
"As the governor of Louisiana once said, the only way Chris Kelsay can lose his job is if he got caught in bed with a dead girl or a live boy."
The silhouette IS Schaub.
The picture works well because it’s a guess-the-player trivia game, and if you didn’t have the “this is Matt Schaub” photo caption, you’d be guessing who the silhouette in the pic was.

I can see the #8 in a Texans uni
So I guess it was a question of whether it was Schaub or David Carr. Carr would be funnier too!

"As the governor of Louisiana once said, the only way Chris Kelsay can lose his job is if he got caught in bed with a dead girl or a live boy."
Only players I know of that were drafted from IUP long enough ago to be coaching now are Jim Haslett and Chris Villarial. Don’t know if either is an NCAA coach though…
if you posted an actual guess i could tell you if you are right about it……
No weekend spent pantsless is a wasted weekend.
well apparently haslett is not an ncaa coach… so that leaves me with Chris Villarial, final answer.

In 2009, Villarrial was named head coach of the Saint Francis Red Flash football team. The Red Flash compete in the Northeast Conference of NCAA Division I FCS.
So yes #2 is Chris Villarrial

You are going to cry when you see the offensive line posts for the All-Decade team… FYI

Got all but number 3 – it’s giving me fits. Which EMCC is the question…
by BuffaloRepresent on May 4, 2010 10:53 AM EDT up reply actions
Does the 54 touchdowns include playoffs/college, or is it NFL reg. season? Or is that asking too much and I’ll have to wait until someone else gets it?
by BuffaloRepresent on May 4, 2010 11:57 AM EDT up reply actions
I got it now too – though I believe he had 57 if you count the 3 receiving TDs – that’s what threw me off. Not that I knew these totals by heart or anything – just verifying.
Pro football reference! Good questions as always – I’m usually always stumped even with the internet’s help

OK
- Sam Wyche

OK got two without cheating
The other two, I would have had no idea.
I got that first one based on the 1988 AFC Championshp clue… Good one
What exactly is EMCC? Eastern Michigan CC? Eastern Mississippi CC? Must be the fake clue.
~K
"As the governor of Louisiana once said, the only way Chris Kelsay can lose his job is if he got caught in bed with a dead girl or a live boy."
EMCC stands for East Mississippi Community College. It isn’t a false clue. He attended it before transferring to the college he was drafted from.

OK, I know who it is now
I hate New England.

Agree
Anytime you can work the Wheeling Ironmen into the convo it is awesome.

Its 10:00 pm
Someone tell me who number 3 is lol
The player I would like least at #9 would be my sister’s cat, Captain Creamsicle. She does have a great work ethic and agility, but I’m really concerned that at 9 lbs., she’s too small to play safety in the NFL. She also bites way too often on play action and is easily distracted by someone waving string in the crowd. Lastly, her wonderlic score was pretty awful, answering "meow meow meow" for most of the questions- Dr. Brackish Okun
