This team will put up alot of points. Very balanced offensive game. Defensively, stopping the run will be my hardest task, I will have to play almost everyone I play like they are run-oriented since most ppl pick gold RB's like Campbell. Thankfully Tatum and Browner are good against the run too so pass coverage will be my strongest point for a lacking defense. I play a cover 2 to make sure I don't give up the big plays and hopefully cause turnovers.

Its a nice team, but its basically the team u see everyone roll with online. Your D is seriously lackin so I hope you can score.

Using Barry is fun isnt it? I miss him on my new team

I have two bronze receivers, and a bronze H-back. My GT is above if you would like to play me.

They were offensive explosions in which I won 5-3 and 9-0 I managed at least an INT each game - and a TON of sacks. It wasn't uncommon for me to leave the other team at 4th and 15+ yard to go. Although, when I get the ball, I can't do crap. I rely on an INT for a TD or at least returned so I'm in FG range, and on Barney to run a kick off or punt back. My first game, I managed to force a fumble that left me in FG range - then in OT I actually won the coin toss and KICKED off. I managed to pin them deep on a nice kick - and drove them back for a safety. The next game I managed to get a kickoff return TD off the second half opening kick off. Then I managed a sack later on in the 4th. In the second game I gave up a whopping 45 yards I'm not sure what I gave up in the first game, though. Although, I only had something like 135 yards in that same game. I punted a lot It's actually a lot of fun with no offense. Because it means I have to play very carefully - and when I do get a big play, it feels awesome. When I run for 8 yards, it's a huge deal. I can't afford to mess up on D, though. If I do, I'm pretty much ****ed. Luckily, I've only given up 3 points in 2 games so far, while scoring 14 myself. I really like stacking one side completely. It's fun being unstoppable on offense - but then I'm wide open on D. I prefer having a great D, because a sweet INT or a sack for 5 yards makes me feel better than a 40-50 yard TD Run.

I had to try this, so I created the Portland Dragons:
Gold:
CB Night Train Lane
FS Willie Wood

Silver:
ILB Nick Bounicoti
K Jan Stenerud
SS Joey Browner

Bronze:
DT Leon Lett
DT William Perry
OLB Brad Van Pelt
CB Terry McDaniel
HB Christian Okoye
QB Bill Wade

I just couldn't commit to an all star defense, so I had to use two bronze for a QB and HB. I decided in close fought games that field position and FG kicking would be critical, so I spent the silver on Stenerud. Once I get to the opponents 40 yd line, I have shot of scoring!

Still, the defense gives up a few plays, and moving it on offense is really tough. I've been surprised at getting a couple passing TDs throwing to all the generics though, as long as they are covered by a bronze or generic -you have a chance.

I notice that a lot of guys don't use Star O-Lineman. I was curious to find out how a Generic O-line plays,because I'm thinking about making a team tonight with a Generic O-Line......I'm also looking for some people to play online as well....thanks fellas,hope to see you on the gridiron and here's my Team....

Gold: Russ Grimm
Glod: O.J Simpson

Silver: Anthony Munoz
Silver: Chris Doleman
Silver: Lem Barney

Bronze: Bernie Kosar
Bronze: Eugene Robinson
Bronze: Dexter Manley
Bronze: Alvin Harper
Bronze: Pepper Johnson
Bronze: Bill Curry

I love to run the footbal. I'm inspired by Joe Gibbs. I love the way the APF2K8 play's in the trenches,so running the football is fun for me. So I'm pretty old school with a Ball Control ofense and Good solid defense....And this squad I put together does fits that moled.

I've got Grimm on my run-based team, and he dominates. It's lovely. So does Muñoz. What's great about this game is that guys who excel at run blocking are great not just at the point of attack, but are noticeably active at the second and third levels as well. I'm amazed at how they implemented these skills, and they're really noticeable.
