What is 'Celebrity Family Feud' without some fun banter and awkward questions. The latest episode of 'Celebrity Family Feud' hosted by Steve Harvey featured NFL Legends going head to head against NFL Pro Bowlers. NFL Pro Bowlers was led by Cam Jordan of Saints fame, while the Legends team was headed by former Saints player Adrian Peterson.

The show kicked off with Steve Harvey introducing each of the teams. He then proceeded to ask awkward questions like what does a stripper take off first, etc. Although NFL Legends team, which comprised of Torry Holt, former Titans running back Eddie George, former Steelers wide receiver Hines Ward and Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb, started off strong, they began fumbling a bit in the middle of the game. After getting three consecutive strikes, it was NFL Pro Bowlers' turn to shine.

The bowlers did not fail. They answered each of the witty questions with even wittier responses, thus racking up the points for their team. But NFL Legend player Hines managed to save their day with his quick thinking in the final round. During the final round, Steve Harvey asked the contestants of both the teams the set of questions, and their answers were recorded on the board, alongside the number of survey responses that matched the player's response. Whoever had the highest score by the end of the round would be taking home the grand prize of $25K, which the players had already pledged to donate to a charity of their choice. 

Hines managed to answer most of the questions very well, but it was his final response that won the team the prize. When Hines was asked which animal would be shelterless without a shell, he immediately responded with a turtle. When Steve Harvey asked him to come up with another response because his opponent had already answered that, Hines then changed his response to crab. Luckily for him, crab turned out to be the most popular survey response, which led to their victory. The NFL Legends pledged their prize to Fisher House Foundation, a charity and foundation that builds comfort homes where military and veteran families can stay for free while their family members are in the hospital. 

'Celebrity Family Feud' Season 6 airs every Wednesday at 8/7c only on ABC.
