Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

Answer: Bobby

The Chiefs front office (then with the AFL) was so sure that Bell would sign with the Minnesota Vikings, that they didn't consider him at all in the 1983 draft. He was still available in the seventh round and Kansas City nabbed him. Bobby played from 1963-1974.

He helped the Chiefs and Len Dawson get to two Super Bowls. Bell had nine career touchdowns along with 26 interceptions. He was the first Chief ever inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1983.

Answer: Greg

Greg was involved in one of the largest trades in NFL history. The 10-player trade came on Halloween Day in 1987 that involved the Colts, Rams, and Bills. The main player that caused it all was the Rams' Eric Dickerson, who ended up in Indianapolis.

The trade took Greg from the Bills to the Rams. Bell's only Pro Bowl season was in his rookie year in 1984. He ran for 1100 yards with the Bills and caught 34 passes in the season. He retired in 1990 as a Raider with 51 career rushing touchdowns.
