Re: Lou Groza and other Iron Men

Trojan Man and others,

its been a "secret experiment" of mine to find out all of the legends on this game who played more than one position to make the ultimate hybrid team, capable of playing any style of play on both sides of the ball. my source of info: old head Sonny at my job. he told me about bednarik, lenny moore, groza, and some other old school guys i never heard of. i do remember him mentioning one of the gold qb's who passed, ran, played d, everything. maybe it was baugh i cant remember

Re: Lou Groza and other Iron Men

Great! Let's put a list together. It's totally legit--why else would the game makers give a kicker a stamina bonus if he weren't made to be used for more than kicking? Same with Chucky and probably Otto Graham. I'm gonna make that team today! This game is ridunculously amazing!

Two Silver WR's also played as RBs earlier in their career, I forget their names.

Re: Lou Groza and other Iron Men

Seems like the only players in the game that played two seperate positions on 2 of 3 areas Special Teams, Defense or Offense and was voted All Pro at both was Bednarik and Groza.

Bednarik - All Pro at LLB, MLB (Defense) and Center (Offense)
Groza - All Pro at K (Special Teams) and LT (Offense)

Now there are some players in the game that played lots of different positions on offense and many different positions on defense. Also there were some that played offense and defense. However those that played offense and defense did not reach the hieghts those two guys did.

Example Art Donovan played DT and T. However I don't think he received All Pro honors as a T on offense.

Baugh is considered by many to be the second greatest safety behind Mr. Lott! and still holds records for longest avg. for punts over a season.

But plays nowhere near those standards in this game for either of those positions.
