    I got a 52. It took me 3 minutes just to spell Edgerrin, 2 minutes before I figured Ahman Greens name wasn't Ahmed, and another 3 minutes to figure out KevAn Barlow spells his name like a jerk. That was actually fun.

    All you need is last names, which can get you multiples (ie Smith).

    ooooh no way! I probably should have read that. All you need to do is type in Smith, Jackson, Johnson, Brown, Davis and Williams.

    Actually, let me try that.

    I got a 20.

    I got 81. I didn't know many guys from the early 90s/late 80s and had trouble spelling some names. Good test.

    123/124 for me.

    There is an error. That's the one I got "wrong."

    In retrospect I should not have gotten it wrong anyway. What a dumbass.


    the error- Barry Sanders did not play in 1999. Yet, I answered Billy Sims correctly. At least with the Lions, I was paying attention to the years as opposed to the players. Again, though, what an idiot I was there.

    It's amazing which ones you miss sometimes on these quizzes. Or ones that take you a long time. LaDainian Tomlinson was my 115th entry.

    That's damn impressive, though unsurprising. I was lost on the last two for the Bucs, and missed several I should have known.

    Terrell Davis wasn't part of the list. Five Broncos eclipsed the 1000 yard mark since he retired.



    There was a second Davis on the list, though, but the quiz creator had the guy listed by his current name.

    SPOILER ALERT
    Domanick Davis ran for over 1000 yards for Houston in 2003 and 2004. His final NFL season was 2005. In 2006 he legally changed his surname to Williams. On this quiz he is listed as Domanick Williams.

    The Browns, Raiders and 90s Chargers gave problems.

    Chargers was easy for me, Natrone Means and Marion Butts for the 90's. Denver and a few others hurt me.

    Whoops! I'll admit, I typed Davis for TD and then said "Oh, right, Stephen Davis, too.". Funny thing is, I even got all the Broncos. I started by just typing obvious names before going to individual teams.
