I am going to guess Chad Pennington but with his loss this year he is 2-3 in the play-offs.

Lost: 2006- NE, 2004- Pit, 2002- Oak
Won- 2004- SD, 2002- IND

That's right. I forgot about Oakland. To be fair, it's hard to remember them as a playoff team.

It has been awhile since they were anything close to respectable.

If someone else has one go ahead and post it. I will try to get one up soon.

I was drafted by the Pittsburgh Steelers then released. Another NFL team picked me up when I was playing semi pro football. I would go on to win 2 NFL championships, 1 Super Bowl, 2 NFL MVP's, and end up in the Hall of Fame.

Bang on. I would guess that Johnny U would be rooting against the Indianapolis Colts in the upcoming Super Bowl if he were still with us.

- I was drafted to a Canadian baseball team in 1995
- I competed with a fellow baseball draftee to QB my college team.
- My career path could have drastically changed without the intervention of an obscure rule.

I finished third in Heisman trophy voting.

I was drafted by Pittsburgh, but never played for them.

I won four NFL titles.

I was on the winning side of the most lopsided NFL title game ever.

Could you find a link to substantiate this?

Here is a fairly recent list of father-son NFL players and Stallworth is not on this list:

Getting back on the subject... I am going to say that it was Brent Jones taking part in the 49ers 55-10 Super Bowl victory over the Denver Broncos.

...of course when I said Donte's 100% John's son, I meant he is not his son . Wow I just looked it up and you guys are right, he's not! Im a huge Saints fan and always loved Stallie during his time in New Orleans. And I couldve SWORN it was his dad, in fact Im pretty sure Ive heard media members talk about it before. But I looked it up and it just said he has John's bloodlines. If it was actually his dad Im pretty sure they wouldnt word it that way. Huh...learn somethin new every day I suppose.

While I am not a huge Saints fan myself (I'm a Cowboys fan), I was cheering really, really hard for them to play in the Super Bowl. I like Sean Payton and I think it would have been an amazing story to have the Saints go all the way the year after the Hurricane Katrina debacle. Even though they didn't make the big show there is no doubt that they sure represented themselves and their fans well.

Incorrect. Hint: NFL title game, not Super Bowl. Plus the Super Bowl you mentioned is not even close to the most lopsided NFL Championship game of all time.

Another Hint:

My coach is legendary.

I played my college ball at Columbia.

I didn't realize this would be so hard. I thought the reference to the most lopsided title game of all time would give it away. I'll go over the hints again.

I finished 3rd in Heisman trophy voting.

I was drafted by Pittsburgh, but never played for them.

I was on the winning side of the most lopsided title game (not Super Bowl) in NFL history.

My coach is Legendary.

I played my College ball at Columbia.

New Hint: I threw 7 TD's in one game (current NFL shared record).
