I assume there's some specific wording in the question, but... why isn't Norm Standlee the answer to this question too? He had four touchdowns in the 1941 NFL postseason. Granted, two of the touchdowns came in a divisional playoff game that came about only because the Bears and Packers were tied for the division lead at the end of the regular season (as opposed to a game that was preplanned before the season began.) But based on the wording of the two questions, I'd expect the differentiation to be a player scoring four touchdowns in the AAFC postseason or AFL postseason

The 1940 Bears had 3 pic sixes in the 73-0 whitewashing of the Redskins. dunno if that was the first time of 2 or more.
