The 'Multiple playoff game-winning drives by NFL QB' quiz

Happy 76th birthday to two-time Pro Bowler, 1982 Walter Payton Man of the Year, 1983 NFL MVP and Super Bowl XVII champion Joe Theismann!

After starting two years under center for Notre Dame, Theismann was selected in the fourth round of the 1971 NFL Draft by the Miami Dolphins. Instead of playing for Miami, he decided to sign a deal with the Toronto Argonauts of the Canadian Football League. He played three seasons in the CFL before Washington obtained his rights from Miami and he joined the NFL. 

Theismann eventually played 12 NFL seasons with Washington, leading them to two Super Bowl appearances and one victory over the Dolphins in 1982-83. He’s known for having his career abruptly ended after a gruesome injury in the 1985 season while getting sacked by Lawrence Taylor. 

Which brings us to today’s quiz. Theismann is one of 35 quarterbacks with multiple playoff game-winning drives to his name. How many of those NFL quarterbacks can you name in five minutes?

Good luck!
