That's too much of a blanket statement, though. I know what you are saying, but knowing a team is going to pass and knowing who's going to be where on the field and exactly when are two COMPLETELY different scenarios.

1958 was a very good year...

In Techmo Bowl, if you can see your opponent's fingers, you'll win no matter what your Techmo Bowl skill level is.

Again, blanket statement. yes, it's a success when you execute your play.. But what about the other guys on your side of the ball? 10 players on offense can execute their play flawlessly, but if the WR getting the ball doesn't, it's a fail.

Another example; 11 guys on offense execute their play flawlessly. But this time, the other 11 guys on defense ALSO execute their play flawlessly. Hmmm. That COULD mean a net gain of 60 yards and a TD, or 0 yards.

Anyway, I digress.

Probably the only computer game other than Zork that I had success on.

Rodgers could have the D in the huddle with him and it wouldn't have helped them anyway. The plays were options. Unless they know what Rodgers is deciding at the line of scrimmage pre snap, they don't know where the ball is going, if it is in the air or on the ground, what routes the receivers are going to run or which of the 5 eligible players are going to get it. Even the routes are options, depending on where the DBs line up, where the safeties are and who has a step on whom.

Yeah, the type of offenses being run is also a difference maker.

Lots of variables.

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)
Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing
Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Zero, I think I preferred my offer: your 1st for my 15th rounder

Martha Careful (2-Aug) : Congratulations Sterling Sharpe. He was terrific and I loved watching him play.
beast (2-Aug) : I believe it's technically against the CBA rules, but Jerry just calls it a simple unofficial chat... and somehow gets away with it.
beast (2-Aug) : Jerry Jones is infamous for ̶n̶e̶g̶o̶t̶i̶a̶t̶i̶n̶g̶ chatting with players one on one... and going around the agent.

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Do the Commanders risk losing a top WR with an emerging QB just because he's turning 30 and potentially risk damaging the rebuild from
Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Turns 30 this September, plays at a high level and Washington has some cap space I believe
