Joe Burrow And Matthew Stafford Making Rare Super Bowl History

Joe Burrow and Matthew Stafford are easily two of the most likable quarterbacks in the NFL.

The fact both are set to square off in the Super Bowl means it will be hard for neutral fans to pick a side.

Both signal-callers have a unique story on how they got this far.

But one thing they have in common is that they are both former No. 1 overall picks in the NFL Draft.

The Cincinnati Bengals took Burrow at No. 1 in 2020 and he has turned the franchise around in record time.

Stafford was drafted No. 1 overall by the Detroit Lions in 2009 and is finally experiencing postseason success in his first season with the Los Angeles Rams.

This means we have two former top picks fighting for Super Bowl glory.

Has this ever happened before?

Yes, on one occasion.
