The Shocking Truth About Rookie Quarterbacks Who’ve Faced the Super Bowl Spotlight Revealed!
Shaun King, Tampa Bay Buccaneers (1999)
Like Roethlisberger, King only needed to start two games while reaching the NFC championship game in 1999. He let a really strong Tampa Bay defense do the heavy lifting as he threw for a total of just 320 yards with one touchdown and three interceptions. The Buccaneers beat Washington 14-13 in the divisional round before losing 11-6 to the “Greatest Show on Turf” Rams in the NFC title game.
King was a backup to Brad Johnson in 2002 when the Buccaneers broke through and beat the Oakland Raiders 48-21 in the Super Bowl.
