The 'NFL Turkey Leg/Galloping Gobbler Award winners' quiz
Inspired by John Madden, CBS began handing out the Turkey Leg Award in 1989 to the best player from the annual Thanksgiving prime-time game. In 1994, the award switched over to Fox when Madden began working there, and in 2002 it became the Galloping Gobbler Award once Madden's tenure at Fox was finished. For two seasons, it was known simply as the Game Ball. Then it was the Fox WWE Championship Belt. Now, it's the Fox Madden Player of the Game. Over that time, whatever the name, the award has been handed out 50 times. So with that in mind, how many of the winners can you name in five minutes? Good luck and Happy Thanksgiving!
