Sixteen years, and whatta ya get?

Well, if your one three NFC North teams, a plethora of QBs.

I happen to be watching a replay of a 1995 matchup where Gino's Chicago Bears are hosting the Pittsburgh Steelers. Erik Kramer was the Bears quarterback on this day, and actually had a decent run with the Monsters of the Midway. But then I got to thinking: in '95, Brett Favre was in his fourth season as the Green Bay Packers starting QB. And for a 16-year period (1992-2007), that was the case (save for the first three games of the '92 season of course). Over that same time frame, my Minnesota Vikings called on fourteen different signal callers to start games for them. The Detroit Lions exceeded that by one.

But a shout out goes to the Chicago Bears for utilizing TWENTY ONE starting QBs from 1992 thru 2007.

To be fair, the Bears look like they finally got it right with Jay Cutler.
