awesome!
gonna load it up and give my 76 Raiders a try.

Unfortunately they did not have great RB's.. would of loved to have the 83 Raiders with Marcus Allen, or early 90's Raiders with Marcus and Bo in the same backfield.. now that was a 1-2 punch!

will provide some feedback.. thanks!!

just played Raiders (me) vs Bucs.. love the old orange bucs colors

the game defiantly plays different.. I will give you that.
and I got destroyed!
The Bucs ran and passed all over me. I could barely stop them.

I am liking the amount of pressure vs being able to run the ball. I think you are on to something here.
Running felt good.. I was able to run, and got stuffed at times.. and even got in with some pressure also a few times on defense.

But my biggest complaint though is that Ken Stabler was wildly inaccurate. If I threw any kind of bullet pass, it was way off target, and even wide open receivers were missed on standards throws.. it was brutal.

Stabler couldn't hit the side a a freakin barn..
I will try some other teams next, and see what kind of results I get.. but Stable definitely needs a ratings boost.

but I can tell you put a lot of work into these ratings.. the game certainly plays different!
thanks again

thanks man, I appreciate it. The Bucs were a GREAT defensive team, ( Allowed 237 points (14.8/g), 1st in the league), though weak offensively. That could explain Stabler's skittishness. The Raiders meanwhile had a weak pass defense, so that probably allowed the Bucs some passing room.

Please tell me what settings you played on, and please post stats!!!!

Try Stabler against another team and let me know more specifics, so i can dig in for V2...if he needs a boost, no problem, he will get it!
thanks,
MJ

I had some accuracy issues with Simms against the Eagles last night, where he'd overthrow receivers running routes towards the sidelines. I had some success running the ball, but it wasn't great by any means (20 carries, 46 yards). However, I realized I was running the ball the way I had been before (holding RT and the right stick down), which is no longer necessary, so I was able to get some 4-6 yard runs up the middle once I stopped doing that!

It definitely plays different, and there was certainly alot of work put into it, great work thus far!

Hi mj sorry for taking forever to get back w/you.heres my thoughts.The running seems good but guys like barry sanders can break long runs on hard very easy on hard i can i mean.The one thing weird is i noticed the wr's and cb's have 50's spd and run in slow motion compared to say derrick thomas.I know you made stars fast so they stand out which is awesome but the wr's and cb';s need at least 75 plus spd.75 being for slow guys.I think this rosters has tons of potential if that is addressed.Remember in the nfl wr's and cb's are generally and have always been the fastest position on the field.I know your stars at these positions are fast enough but if i have say 58 spd as a db and im against rice he can run past me and be open everytime.

Just played the 84 Phins against the Eagles.. I had to shut the game off early, so dont have stat lines.. but again it was kind of difficult to pass with Marino, or it was more difficult than it should of bee i think.

I could tell the accuracy of Marino vs Stabler though.. Marin did throw a harder bullet pass, and was more accurate, but her still miss on quite a few routes.

Again, the Eagles pretty much moved the ball up and down the field on me at times.
CPU offense definitely appears to be better than my defense at times, and I noticed a lot of broken tackles with these rosters also.. yet a had some nice pressure, and even a few sacks.. its a strange mix.. i have to play some more to get a better feel.. I have only had a few minutes here and there to play.. (I'm married with a kid, so not lots of free time here).

So far, QB accuracy is standing out as an issue.. but going to play some more, and try different teams/matchups.

Thanks, I really need to know your settings and get a bit of stats to really understand what you're seeing.
When you get a chance...

Added real life videos of all teams in post #1.
It's fun to see your team in real historic action and then compare to how they play in the game...

I know you said you tested these on Medium, but do you think they would work well on Hard too? I just can not get enough of a challenge out of the CPU on medium no matter what rosters I use. Played two games with these so far and that seems to be the case. Overall though the game does play alot better with this roster, running game is much better and the pass rush still seemed to be there, great job man.

Edit: So I played a game on hard, 1998 Denver Broncos(me) vs the 1978 Pittsburgh Steelers. I won 14-7. Here are the stats:

Total Yards
DEN- 240
PIT- 101

Passing Yards
DEN- 111
PIT- 72

Rushing Yards
DEN- 129
PIT- 35

1st Downs
DEN-12
PIT -5

J. Elway- 9 of 23 128 yards 0 td 2 int
T.Bradshaw- 10 of 21 83 yards 1 td 1 int

T.Davis - 25 carries 125 yards 2 tds
F.Harris- 14 carries 25 yards

Like I said human running game is obviously better with your roster. Running inside is still difficult, but I was able to pick up some short 3 to 4 yard gains. Unfortunately I may have to put the game down for good simply because the CPU offense is anemic no matter roster I use or difficulty I play on. The CPU playcalling logic is pretty awful as well which doesn't help things whatsoever.

Still think you did a great job on the roster and it certainly plays better, but there are just things that are wrong with the game that can't be corrected by rosters.

It should work on hard. Try it out. Another thing you can try is lowering your team focus by 10 points for each of the players on YOUR team and see if that helps.
That oughta make it real hard on yerself!
thanks,
MJ

edit: to your edit, I see in your next post you found quite the opposite...

Re: MrJordan's Historic NFL Teams POST PATCH File For Download (Xbox360)

Hmmm maybe I jumped the gun on the CPU offense being anemic because the 1999 Rams just lit me up playing as the 1980 Chargers. I lost 34-14 and they certainly looked like the greatest show on turf.

Total Yards
STL- 349
SD- 214

Passing Yards
STL-251
SD-162

Rushing Yards
STL- 98
SD- 52

Kurt Warner- 12 of 18 for 268 yards 3 tds 0 ints
Dan Fouts- 16 of 32 for 215 yards 1 td 2 ints

Marshall Faulk- 15 carries for 78 yards 1 td(3 catches for 78 yards and 1 td)
Chuck Muncie- 17 carries for 52 yards 1 td

I.Bruce- 2 catches for 103 yards 2 tds
T.Holt- 4 catches for 63
