Another game for the truly bored (1 Viewer)

[dgreen]

As a spinoff of Doug's game, find the best combo (1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE) by franchise that played their entire career for that franchise.

For example, Redskins:

QB Sammy Baugh 22,211

RB Larry Brown 8,360

RB Cliff Battles 4,057

WR Charley Taylor 10,598

WR Hugh Taylor 5,240

TE Jerry Smith 5,496

Total 55,962

Of course, you'll probably either need to go way back or use current players that just haven't played for another team yet.

Frank Gifford totaled 9043 yards. You could probably even justify using him at WR over Manuel, since he played both RB and FL. If not, he at least beats out Hampton.

That's going to be tough to beat. If Denver can use Elway, they have Elway (54882), TD (8887), and Rod Smith (11737) totaling 75506.

I made the school boy mistake of forgetting that Doug's excellent Historical Dominator goes back no further than 1960.

Wow, only 1618 yards for Clark. It seems like he should have more.

 

[Doug Drinen]

ColtsPeyton Manning 38287

If Manning ends up playing for another team at some point, then the Colts will be left with Art Schlichter at QB!Well, more likely the slot will just end up rotating to whoever is starting at that point, but right now my calculations have Schlichter as the #2.

 

[Doug Drinen]

According to my calculations, the Seahawks' QB is Seneca Wallace. Either him or Kelly Stouffer (who was drafted by, but never played for, the Cardinals). Am I missing someone?

 

[Bri]

but right now my calculations have Schlichter as the #2.

that name sounds/reads like an insult

 

[Doug Drinen]

Is the Vikes' QB really Ron Vander Kelen?

Is the Raiders' QB really Andrew Walter?

This game is fun too. Nice job dgreen.

 

[mightymorse]

Is the Raiders' QB really Andrew Walter?

Yeah, looks like he surpassed Todd Marinovich last year. Raiders squad looks pretty miserable in this game:

QB Andrew Walter 1707
