If 2K was to name their football game after a coach...who would it be and why?

[Elway]

I'd say Lombardi. Lombardi 2K8.

At first I though Ditka but I'm pretty sure he already had a football game which sucked.


Vince Lombardi was a smart dude...perfect for 2K.

John Madden just spouts stupid obvious stuff...perfect for EA.

Martz 09.. He can be on madden.. and get injured

[QB_TARGET#24]

Coach to endorse: Marv Levy

Reason why: So close to winning the big one so many times, but always fall short!

[Darkheath]

How about:

Matt Millen 2k8!!



OK... so he's not a coach... but funny nonetheless.

[Trevytrev11]

Jim Mora....he was never good with the media

Very creative..I like that but I think 2ksports wants to be known as one that can win the big game...But I really like your creativity...

I would pick I believe it was a baketball coach for the Houston Rockets that said something about being The Heart of a Champion...I also like Jimmy V who said something like Never Give up, Never give up my memory a little vague in this area. But if I had to pick a football coach it would be have to be Vince limbardi because of his slogan....Winners never Quit and Quitters never Win...

[Jimmy42Jack0]

no love for the all-time winningst coach in nfl history? Don Shula is the man

[twsn88]

lombardi '66,
main reason: first and only coach to win three straight NFL championships
-revolutionized the running game and strategy that we know today.
-one of many coaches to have had a dynasty.

[OGGamer777]

Nick Saban - You never know what the hell is going on with that guy. Just like we are all in limbo on APF due to incomplete info.

Good suggestion. I also like The Bear.

Though Levy 2K8 sounds cool...his losing ways would be more joke fodder for everyone. :lol:

[brownster14]

i forgot the other coach's name...thnx brownster


no prob.........if i had to go w/ one guy, it would be lombardi

Essentially the Superbowl of Naming Rights would be Landry vs. Lombardi

[brownster14]

Essentially the Superbowl of Naming Rights would be Landry vs. Lombardi

i like that.....landry was a favorite of mine

[SuperFuzz]

It's got to be Shula 2K8
-Winningest coach in NFL History
-Only pro coach to go undefeated

You can't get much better than that. The question is why did EA choose Madden? I do remember I owned Jimmy Johnson Football on the playstation.....and just like Jimmy...it blew!

good choice fuzz

[elemental_fusion]

Bill Walsh or Paul Brown

Jerry Glanville for the sake of humor.

[baandje]

Bill Parcells. Then drop the price and market it with the tag line: This game will only set you back to the Tuna forty bucks!

[2KSPORTS FAN]

Bum Phllips 2k8....

a great master mind, a good person with the media and awsome with people he never sayed nop to9 an autograph, and he always stopped, to talk with evbery one.

a great person inside and out.

[J_Xtra07]

Jimmy Johnson. Just think how many SUPER BOWLS did this guy win, enough said.

[Enigmatic52]

if they were it would be named after a coach with charsima, not so much a coach that accomplished Hall of Fame type numbers.

So with that in mind I think of:

1. Herm Edwards
2. Jeff Fisher
3. Bill Cowher
4. Jerry Glainville
5. Jon Gruden

[sportsgeist]

Jimmy Johnson. Just think how many SUPER BOWLS did this guy win, enough said.
My choices would be either

1. Jimmy Johnson
2. Bill walsh


Madden only won 1 superbowl back in the early 70s and till this day trying to figure out why hes still respected when other coaches have won more.

[PS3=CHE]

Have people forgot the origins of this game already??? It's like MLB 2K7 used to be world series baseball..........http://image.com.com/gamespot/images/2003/all/boxshots2/916012.jpg

Jerry Glanville for the sake of humor.

No no no no ...no!


Glanville drove me nuts. He's not on TV anymore is he? Damm, he could say some innane things!

And his voice...

Make it stop!!!
