The Greatest Career Ever?

[PhantomLord]

I just got to the year 2021 with the Chicago Bears in my fantasy single player dynasty, and just won my 6th straight championship. My QB was picked #2 in the draft in 2008, and look at what his career turned in to...

In real life this person would be the standard against which all QBs would be judged, and would vie with Jerry Rice for greatest player ever.

Very impressive. By the way, what difficulty setting was your career on?

Can I "no comment" this one? :-P

[PhantomLord]

WOW... Even AFTER Reeder left, my backup QB (38/48 now) lifted the team on his shoulders and won me my SEVENTH STRAIGHT TITLE.

[Raiders Army]

The Raiders were screwed in 2015. I can tell.

[DolphinFan1]

Wow, that's incredible TD to interception ratio for the career.

:eek: :D

[Kozure]

not trying to be too negative, but if they won all those consecutive championship, he probably has an amazing team around him, so amazing that i doubt any real football team would be able to create and then maintain it.

Other than that, good lord, he was a monster. :)

[SFL Cat]

Did he slap any kids?

Bump it up a level. Then the Bears can go back to being the team they really are, a 1 good season in 20 years kind of team. ;)

After winning our 7th consecutive title with our horrible new QB, we went 8-8 the following year to return to reality. Yay. Most of my best players are retiring, so I have 75 million plus in cap room to work with.

This team is who I thought they were.

[MrDNA]

I would like to crown that team. Er... for an eigth time.

I tend to think his career was too short to be considered the greatest ever. In my career, I've had and seen the AI have QBs with very impressive numbers over a longer period of time. My second stud QB won 7 titles for me and played 17 years with nearly 65K yards and 425 TDs. This guy's QB rating is artificially high because he didn't play out his career. A stud, no doubt, but I'm not sure you won't see a few better.

[RedKingGold]

He's got nothing on Dean Houston.

[Green Caesar]

What happened in 2015 & 2017? Can you post what Buchanan & Lutz did to win POY those years? your boy, Reeder, had his best year QB Rating-wise in 2017 and didn't get POY.

[dj_morton]

Great QB!

I'll check tomorrow and get back to you.

I had a guy, whose name I'll never forget -- Brett Wacholz -- who would have given your guy a run for the money. He was still starting in his 15th year when the game corrupted. He had won 6 championships and had been named player of the year multiple times. He might have won a few more.

There was also another guy who was maybe even more spectacular. He started his first 8 years at another team. He won four straight championships there. Then I got him in FA and he won four straight championships for me. I can't remember other particulars, but he was a great QB, obviously.

These guys are "in the game" but they've got to have the right circumstances to really shine. I've seen a few of them languishing on terrible teams. They do pretty well, but without the supporting cast we give them on our teams, they don't put up the awesome numbers.

There have been a few of them in my currently running game, but nobody who compares to Brett Wacholz, or that other guy whose name I've forgotten.

Excuse me, I get a little verklempft just thiking about them..

[QuikSand]

Ever is a long time.

[Greyroofoo]

Did he ever beat Tom Brady?

[dj_morton]

Brady is garbage! Boo!

[Chubby]

I'll have to take some screens of my QB that just retired. His stats are insane and I went to a running attack his last 5 seasons after I drafted a 93/93 RB

[devynd]

I have to ask: since Reeder was the #2 overall pick, who went #1?

I notice that twice in four years you went 16-0 yet lost to the Falcons in the NFC Championship Game. Ouch.

A better QB would have won those games... ;)

My current QB doesn't have especially great stats, but he's 8-0 in Superbowls and has won MVP in all eight games. I think that's a cool stat, especially since I run more of a running offence.
