Question

Three starting quarterbacks this week have the same last name: Josh Allen, Kyle Allen and Brandon Allen. This hasn’t happened since Week 14 of the 2000 season. What was the last name of those three quarterbacks?

Answer

Johnson. In Week 14 of the 2000 season, Brad Johnson started for Washington (losing 9-7 against the Giants), Rob Johnson started for Buffalo (losing 44-20 at Indianapolis) and Doug Johnson started against Seattle (losing 30-10 to Seattle). A fourth Johnson has also started games in this century: Josh Johnson (most recently last year with Washington). There have been five Smiths who have started at quarterback since 2000, but never with three in the same week: Alex, Akili, Troy, Geno and Rusty.
