Problem: at the Georgia Dome, Atlanta, Georgia Coming off their season-sweep in Tampa over the Buccaneers, the Falcons went home for a crucial Saturday night fight with the Dallas Cowboys.  In the first quarter, Atlanta trailed early with Cowboys QB Tony Romo completing a 7-yard TD pass to WR Terrell Owens for the only score of the period.  In the second quarter, Dallas' lead increased with OLB returning an interception 41 yards for a touchdown on the very first play of the period.  Fortunately, the Falcons fought back with QB Michael Vick throwing a 1-yard TD pass to FB Justin Griffith and a 9-yard TD pass to WR Michael Jenkins.  It was after the second touchdown that an NFL record was set.  After kicker Morten Andersen's extra point, he became the league's all-time leading scorer with 2,435 points.  His total after the game would be 2,437 points. After Atlanta's second score of the game, the Cowboys jumped back into action, with Romo completing a 51-yard TD pass to Owens.  Fortunately, the Falcons managed to tie the game going into halftime with Vick's 8-yard TD pass to WR Ashley Lelie.  In the third quarter, Atlanta took the lead with Vick's 5-yard TD pass to Griffith.  However, the joy was short-lived as Dallas took over for the rest of the game with kicker Martin Gramatica's 48-yard field goal and RB Marion Barber's 9-yard TD run.  In the fourth quarter, the Cowboys wrapped up the game with Barber's 3-yard TD run.  With the loss, the Falcons fell to 7-7. Fortunately, not all was bad.  Along with Andersen's record-setting night, Vick also managed to set a record for the most single-season rushing yards by a quarterback with 934 yards at game's end and would appear in only one more game.  Also, the entire Falcons rushing corps broke the single-season rushing record that they set two seasons ago (which was 2,672) with a new record of 2,697 yards.

Who threw the longest touchdown pass of the game?

Problem: Osman II designated Öküz Mehmed Pasha once again for the eastern front. Abbas learnt the Ottoman plan was to invade via Azerbaijan, take Tabriz then move on to Ardabil and Qazvin, which they could use as bargaining chips to exchange for other territories. The shah decided to lay a trap. He would allow the Ottomans to enter the country, then destroy them. He had Tabriz evacuated of its inhabitants while he waited at Ardabil with his army. In 1618, an Ottoman army of 100,000 led by the grand vizier, invaded and easily seized Tabriz. The vizier sent an ambassador to the shah demanding he make peace and return the lands taken since 1603. Abbas refused and pretended he was ready to set fire to Ardabil and retreat further inland rather than face the Ottoman army. When the vizier heard the news, he decided to march on Ardabil right away. This was just what Abbas wanted. His army of 40,000 commanded by Qarachaqay Khan was hiding at a crossroads on the way and they ambushed the Ottoman army in a battle at Sarab on 10 September 1618, which ended in complete victory for the Iranians. The beylerbeys of Rumelia, Diyarbakır and Van were among thousands who lost their lives. The new Grand Vizier Damat Halil Pasha took command, continued the invasion. When the Ottoman army started to threaten Ardabil the Safavids sued for peace. The terms of the treaty was similar to those of treaty of Nasuh Pasha with several minor rectifications of the border line. Also, the annual tribute of the Persian side was reduced from 200 loads to 100 loads of silk.

Whose army ambushed the Ottoman army?
Answer: Abbas

Problem: Without Brian Westbrook, but coming off their dominant defensive performance over the Steelers, the Eagles flew to Soldier Field for a Week 4 Sunday night duel with the Chicago Bears. The Bears started quickly, forcing a three-and-out, then scoring on three passing plays.  DeSean Jackson was responsible for gaining 66 of the 74 yards traveled on the next drive, including a 22-yard touchdown reception from Donovan McNabb to tie the score.  Kyle Orton passed to Marty Booker for a 23-yard touchdown to make it 14-7 Chicago in the second quarter, but the Eagles came right back with a quick drive ending in Correll Buckhalter scoring from a yard out.  After a missed 50-yard field goal by David Akers, the Bears used the short field to set up a 20-yard touchdown pass to Devin Hester. Akers missed another field goal in the third quarter before making two short kicks that came after Kyle Orton fumbled.  Robbie Gould booted a 41-yard kick to make it 24-20 Bears in the fourth quarter. McNabb then took the Eagles down the field, and with 5:40 left to play, Philadelphia had 1st-and-goal from the 4-yard line.
