#19: Maybe I misunderstood the question, but Ray Rice did run for an 83 yard touchdown on the first play. Anyhow, fun quiz today!

At least get the answers correct. On #17, Jay Feely, who punted for the Jets, is the kicker, not the QB. The QB is Mark Sanchez. So, your answer is wrong, and you did not even supply the correct answer. Come on, get with it.

As for #17, I picked QB because I got it mixed up with AJ Feely and that's probably what happened here.
