I got O.J. To fumble twice in the same game on Legend

[catcatch22]

Here is the first fumble from O.J., caused by Leonard Marshall and recovered by Lawrence Taylor.



Here is the second fumble by O.J. on back to back consecutive drives. This time Taylor causes the fumble and Erik Howard recovers it.



Taylor and Howard are my created players of the 86-90 Giants by the way. This was during season mode against the Cyclones with my Giants team.

Nice stuff, REAL nice stuff. Could you send me how you did your Giants squad? I REALLY would appreciate it. Do you have 5 star gold created? If so then I can't make them.

[grunt]

I like that hit by LT. I wonder if the rain played a factor in the fumbles. How are you liking season mode.

I will answer after I get back from my best friends wedding, probably this weekend. Will give a much indepth answer then.

Yeah I definetly think the rain played a factor, but one thing that is definetly apparent in this game is the momentum and homefield advantage. There's gotta be some hidden momentum meter in this game cause when it turns one way, especially for the home team it really turns one way for an extended pereiod of time. Touch back kickoffs, sacks, big hits, there is definetly some momentum progammed in the game causing a play here or two to turn the tide of the game one way or another.

The game turned my way with my kick coverage team and Stenerud not allowing them anything past 20 yards and I was at home close game and my team in the 2nd half turned it on and boom on consecutive drives 2 fumbles by O.J. and 2 touchdowns by me. In the first half O.J. was doing his thing. Taylor must have ripped into his D-mates at halftime and told them to got out there and "Run them M*** and chase them like wild dogs"

Man, Jeff Hostetler stinks. I hate using him... he's so frustrating to control.

I like him, he runs real well and I don't have to set my feet when I throw and run outside the pocket. His arm is also surprisingly strong that I can zip balls in tight spaces with him.

I rarely put the game on his shoulders. I use Meggett and Anderson as my double punch running duo while Ditka bails me out of tough stretches here and there.

Usually I just try for turnovers and field position. I've never been a fan of big time QB's.
