I was wondering who the who has been the worst QB (talent wise) to lead you to the FOF Bowl championship?

For me its Marques Tuiasosopo.

Playing as the Houston Texans I drafted Julius Peppers with the first overall pick, then snagged QB Joey Harrington with the first pick in the 2nd round. Harrington's stats didn't look that great, but I figured he'd be a servicable starter and possibly be a steal. After 3 years of struggling with injuries he broke out in 2005 and had a great season throwing for 39 touchdowns, starting all 16 games, and leading the team to the AFC championship before falling in the championship game. 2006 started out with High expectations, but in the first game of the season Harrington went down with a season ending injury. My backup who steps in to replace him: Marques Tuiasosopo At this point I figured the season was over and started thinking about the high draft pick I would have. The losing record through 5 games just confirmed that. Then things started turning around. Behind a decent core of players and an awsome DL anchored by DE Peppers and the DT I drafted 1st overall in 2003, the Texans ended up winning the division. Of course I still expected to fall early. To my surprise, Tuiasosopo led the team to the championship. Because of this I've kept him on my team (paying more than I usually pay for a backup QB) and he is still a very good fill in. Harrington has only played all 16 games one other time, 2009, when he finally won a ring on his own.

I don't remember the stats, but I won the FOF Bowl in FOF2 with free agent Paul Justin picked off the scrape heap after that piece of crap Elvis Girlbac went down for the year.

Same here, I once won a championship in FOF2 with Paul Justin as my starter...replaced him the very next year though with Doug Flutie and went on to win a 2nd straight title :-)

I remember in 2015, or so I had this great quarterback, we were 7 and 0 than he fractured his leg, plus my backup broke his clavical. So i had to release my last qb to sign 3 scrub rookies. We proceded to lose the last 9 games of the season but by a stroke of god we won our division. Than we got lucky with playing teams with injuries and won the FOF bowl. The guy had a QB rating of 60 or so.

in FOF2001 I won the super bowl once with a team made up entirely of undrafted free agents. I know others have done the same. I remember my QB being "ok"

For me it was Eric Zeier(sp?). It was one of those draft things where everyone gets 1Million in salary cap room after the draft, and I had Mr. Eric as my QB. Won 2 SuperBowls, and then Warner was a Free Agent, so I picked him up :D

i once did it with a QB rated and 3/20 if fof2001...the sad thing was he was my starter....during free agency forgot about the cap and signed right up to it with my other positions...he was my 3rd stringer the year before with my star QB leavin for a sucky team...ended up having to sin 2 other sucks, and by divine intervention he won the job....but we were loaded at the other spots, and i rarely allowed him to throw, because everytime he did it seemed the other team got a TD....
