Good heavens! What happened in 2041? Did the coach go pass-happy or something?!

Amazing player.

I think his retirement may be the timing I needed to switch teams. I've just been rolling along with this team, perhaps it's time for a new challenge.

I also might want to immediately sign away my old QB... who is a free agent.

What about his standings in the all time rushing seasons? Does he hold all 10 spots?

I don't believe so. I'm pretty sure his 14 years are all in the top 16 season records though.

My running back before him had 1,999 yards the year before Zach entered the league, and one other back finally broke 2,000 in 2041 (thereby relegating Zach to 2nd team RB for one season).

And now this story ends with a unanimous selection to the hall of fame.

Congrats, Zach.

I know this may be a bit much to ask, but how many 100 yard games did this guy have. Perhaps even easier would be to ask how many sub 100 yard games he had

games played:224
non-100 yard games:49
100 yard games: 159
over 200 yards: 16

If I weren't so lazy I'd count up his 150-200 yard games seperately. He broke the 150 mark so damn often...

That is the best back I have ever seen in this game.

No argument from me. Again, I thought the most interesting thing was the fact that my AI gameplanning become so damn run heavy. I had a great back before him, and we were still a pretty balanced team. With Langen, I also had an outstanding (Hall of Fame) QB, yet we ran it constantly. I think the conservative game plan led to a couple playoff upsets (we went 16-0 and got bounced in our first playoff game at one point ) but overall the team was incredibly successful. I think Langen is the single greatest FOF player I have ever seen, regardless of version. His stats against the #2 players in most categories is just ridiculous, he has no peer.

His 886 receptions would put him at #6, between Irving Fryar and Art Monk on the all time list.

Had he not run the ball a down in his life, he would have still had the best ever career as a receiver out of the backfield. Larry Centers has only 808 career receptions.
