6-Pack trivia challenge #1 - "The Old Uniforms"

Here's some trivia for you guys starting easier, then getting harder (copied from a different post):

1. The last time those uniforms were worn, vintage or throwback who was the opponent?

2. Who was the opposing team's head coach?

3. The last time those uniforms were worn vintage, who was the opponent?

4. What Bengals defensive player set a Bengals record in that game that has yet to be broken? What was the record?

5. The second most famous injury in Bengals history happened in this game, who was the player?

6. What did the opponent do that was special in winning this game?

how are u gonna pull trivia for just one game....

and im not old enough to know about that game.

Technically, it's just 2 games that are in question. Also, knowing history is part of being a fan. The world didn't start when you were born. I was not old enough to see the first game, but I know about it. Go buy Chick Ludwig's book and read on. :-)

I got out the big guns and looked in the media guide. Then I used my skills of deduction and memory (old age actually) to try to fill in the blanks. Is that cheating??? :lol:

Here goes,

Vintage

1/3. Last game-December 21, 1980 vs. Cleveland Browns

2. Head Coach Sam Rutigliano, the guy that replaced Forrest Gregg as Browns HC the year before.

4. Eddie Edwards had five sacks in one game.

5. I am guessing that the injury was the Thom Darden hit on Pat McInally that knocked him out. I think PM came back into the game and later caught a TD.

6. The final score was 27-24 Browns, but I don't remember anything special that they did. Last second field goal maybe? BTW, I think the Browns lost to the Raiders in the playoffs that year.

that's pretty good. the first 2 are definitely the throwback game week 3 of the '94 season. 3 is right, 4 is right, 5 is right, 6 is on the right track. Browns clinched the division in Riverfront Stadium. Paul had to be pissed...

Yeah but PB got his revenge next year when we actually made the Super Bowl with their ex-coach. Come to think of it, PB was their ex-coach too. Bet him and Forrest had alot to talk about.
