4 or 5 of them are obviously not correct.
I'll go out on a limb and say Falcons for the 3rd one.

Chris is correct-- Falcons are not referred to in the King James Version, though what the KJV describes as "vultures" in Isaiah 34:15 is referred to in some modern versions as hawks, buzzards, and falcons.

As to John W.'s guess, ravens get mentioned in one of the gospel versions of the Sermon on the Mount (Luke 12:24, "Consider the ravens, for they neither sow nor reap"). In the more familiar version from in the book of Matthew (the one about the lillies of the field that "toil not, neither do they spin"--- the birds are referred to only as "the fowls of the air".

Good guesses everyone.

I never thought I'd ever encounter a trivia question combining the NFL and the King James Bible. :o :lol:

These two players had the same last name and the same jersey number. Both were QBs in college. One player had a TD reception, the other threw a 95-yard TD pass. Name the two players.
