Bad arse. I will be tearing it up with Kosar, Mack, Newsome, Slaughter, Matthews, Wright, and Minnifield. I'm looking forward to this roster.

Hey Dolph ! Can't wait !

Man 1987, that has to be a tough one with replacement players playing part of the season.

Thanks for reliving history again.

Re: 1987 Roster

You've got no idea. Sifting through who should be there and who should go wasn't really easy. I tried one way, gave up on it and then went at it another way. You'll see a few new faces, as some of the teams actually kept some guys on their rosters after the strike, but very few.

What is going to be interesting is how the season plays out with the starters in there the whole year in franchise mode.

I've had some cool games (I play test like crazy to get the feel right). Bo Jackson destroyed a few teams. Okoye is a monster, but is susceptible to fumbles. The Mayes/Hilliard/Word combo in New Orleans is fun too.

I'm down to two conferences- NFC Central and East, and I already have a team from each completed.

Re: 1987 Roster

Ok I have seen enough. That was the motivation needed to start playing this game again. I usually get into this game starting every june, but we'll fire it up a few weeks early this year. nice vid.

Re: 1987 Roster

Chip Banks isn't on the Browns in this one. He was traded to the Chargers.

I always loved Mack when I was a little kid, he was just so big and bruising.

Re: 1987 Roster

Yeah, I replayed that game not too long ago. I actually had to go back and tone Bo down a bit- he torched me for 200+ yards twice.

For franchise guys- just so you know, Bo will not be available until baseball is over (he'll be injured in the franchise, but healthy in the roster).

Re: 1987 Roster

it would be nice to see a video of Bo running over Boz in Settle in game .

Re: 1987 Roster

Here ia a little snippet of LA playing Seattle. Ddin't have all night, so I didn't get the perfect Bo/Boz clash, but here is a little something. I really think the punt toward the end is the best part. Between that an a DE fumble for a recovery, Seattle was up 14-0 at half without an off. TD.
