        Would be awesome if someone could find it, edit it, and give us real teams, if only for offline play. I'd pay $$$ for it.
        i haven't started a season...i've only edited rosters and played two pre-season games. i'm wondering if this is my roster saves... and if so, they might be able to be shared. just poking around today i've already edited 5 teams. keypad is a HUGE help...

          Well... I went undefeated in my first day of Tecmo lol. I guess all those hours of playing TSB as a kid didn't completely go to waste! Who would've thunk that all those little tricks I learned 10 years ago now prove useful?

          I ran into only 1 NG glitcher. I ran 1 under center pass to make sure it's possible. It definitely is. I still beat him, but I had to call my single shotgun pass, my playaction pass, or run plays. He did exactly what I expected: called run plays and ran NG dives. Fortunately he had no skill on offense and didn't stand a chance. Still, a good player could use the NG dive real well unfortunately. It'd render some playbooks completely useless.

              TSB only ever had 2 QBs on each team's roster.

              Speaking of graphics after toggling between the two I can't play this in 2D. I can't believe we had to get by with graphics that bad.

              For those complaining about floating passes try playing with Miami or Denver there should be a noticeable difference. Marino had an 81 passing speed and Elway a 75.

                why would you in the first place?
                Yeah, I don't plan to. I just wanted to see how often it would work and then quit doing it. I forgot the J/K about it ruining the game because I love it. I don't really plan on playing online except maybe against friends or ladder games. I was playing the original Tecmo Bowl on my Wii last week and am now shell shocked for the change. I started strong and am getting my butt beat by the CPU now. I guess I played more NES TSB and will have to adjust.

                So far the game is a blast. Maybe I am getting old but the rosters/team colors don't bother me a bit. I know who most of the players are from back then so its good enough for me. I'm just going to enjoy some Tecmo Bowl for Tecmo Bowl! I think this is the first time I ever was a little excited for the release of a XBLA game.

                    Maybe I missed it, but I thought there was going to be an online tournament mode. I don't see it anywhere.

                      Sounds good. I'll create it tomorrow. Let me keep playing games here and get a good feel for the game so I can come up with a good set of rules. Basically, what I'm thinking right now is the only rule being you can't control a defensive lineman. Also, I'm thinking quits will cost negative points to deter it from happening (don't think it'll be a problem here though).

                      Anyway, I'll have something preliminary set up tomorrow.
                      Sounds good CreatineKasey. Count me in. I'm loving this game. It was worth the wait. If Tecmo plays it's cards right and adds online leagues and more customizable options in the next iteration the skys the limit for this franchise!!!

                        You can basically select a team, and go down player by player and modify them to match the team. That way you don't have to worry about if you are editing the right player or not. Can't remember who provided the link to the file originally, but thanks for posting it!
                        The only issue with the GameFaqs page is that the Denver Broncos roster isn't listed. Here's a web site I found that gives the Broncos 1993 roster:

                          hey does this game lag online for anyone? My runners are way less responsive. Offline is great, but online is unplayable for me because I cant zig zag or anything. It seems like the kickoff meter works fine, but when I start a running play for example, my players are very unresponsive =(.

                          I just moved and my xbox is pretty far away from my router and Im wondering if it is an issue with that, or if the game is just laggy. Modern Warfare 2 didnt really seem to lag at all when we tested it.

                            No lag for me, could be your internet connection. Are you using DSL? Hope you can fix the problem because this great game is made even better with online play. I'm having so much fun!

                              Fun game but I won't play it enough to justify spending $10.

                                Be careful on the run and shoot teams like Atlanta as a few players are listed in different spots. Like Mike Haynes as the 2nd RB instead of a WR slot. Just check the numbers from the preseason menu and you can edit them correctly. Love this game.
