Wow, what a non-sequitur. On my phone late last night I was hopped on the forum. According to the highlighted listing, a new question was posed in the trivia thread. "Who started the only game Brady didn't?"
Not sure what was going on with the phone, the site, or the browser's cache, but that question seems to be from so long ago, I can't even find it. Odd.

Maple leaf. I was thinking the next question. Answer would have been Blaine Nye question would have been who was the first former Stanford player to play for the winning Super Bowl team
The real answer not Nye but Tony Hill for the Cowboys

Edit to my question #1. There are 5 multiple MVPs. Mick got 3 of them - Starr, Montana & Brady.
Brady actually won it 5 times. There was one other 3-time winner.
Answers for #s 3, 4, & 5 are incorrect.
Mick got 2 of the defensive MVPS - Ray Lewis & Harvey Martin.

If Starr is correct for #1, he has to be correct for #3. He only played in Super Bowl I and II.

Was the only MVP from a losing team Alan Page?
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 -
skip75 - 02-12-2023
compsci and terry are both correct.
So after my initial screw-up, we now have the 5 multiple MVPs, the 5-time MVP (a question I didn't ask, but should have), and the 2 back-to-back MVPs. Still looking for the 3-time MVP, the losing MVP, the co-MVPs, and 8 of the 10 defensive MVPs.

No. He's an NFC linebacker from the Alan Page era - early years of the Super Bowl.
