I researched several of the players in this game and went with the players that had Stamina Bonus to try out. These are the players I tried out.

Art Donovan DT/T : We know what we will get at DT but I had him playing against a computer team with Gino Marchetti Gold DE playing against him and Art shut him out.

Otto Graham QB/P/FS : Best QB in this game period but as a punter and Free safety he sucked badly.

Chuck Bednarik OLB/C : Great OLB and a lot better and smarter than a Generic Center. If Bednarik got beat on a move he would comeback to try and make the block again! Worthy as a Center IMO.

Pete Pihos WR/DE : Played him next to Art Donovan but he didnt make any plays but he held his own and did use the Rip move on many occasions. Not worthy as a DE IMO.

Lou Groza K/C/T/G : Played him at guard between Bednarik and Donovan and he did amazingly well LOL. I like him as a Guard more than I do as a Kicker. He kicked the ball the same distance as a generic so I would just make a bronze pick on a guard if I had to choose. His only attribute is Stamina Bonus but you would think they would have given him a better leg than a generic.

My Impressions is that on legend difficulty and against a Gold DE that this 2 way O-Line players did great. I think that Art Donovan's Leadership worked on both sides of the ball since even my generic RT & RG played well. Art played Left Tackle and played smart like when a OLB blitzed he picked up the OLB while Groza picked up Marchetti :eek: When Art had no one threatening his side he double teamed Marchetti :eek: For this alone is worth a pick in my book if I can wreak havoc with Art on defense and than have Art stop your Reggie White & Elvin Bethea's than this is the pick worth the most IMO.

Groza has a weird step. I can hit 50 yarders with him and get good kickoffs..thanks for the scouting report, im going to put him at guard on every team i have him on :dance:

Yes I could also but at the same time I can kick 50+ FG's with generic kickers also. I thought you would be happy about Donovan more than Groza LOL.

I dont know you guys kick anything over 35 yards with these generics. They flat out drive me nuts..to the point of I dont just use them anymore lol. Heck I'll use Donovan and Groza both on the OL lol

Art did great but there are a few things I was wondering with 2 way players and some attributes they have.

1. Does Leadership work on both sides of the ball for someone like Donovan?

2. Does Signal Stealer work on both sides like Sammy Baugh?

signal stealer works on both side, so leadership probably does too

I put William Perry in as Fb. He does a really good blocking job and gets at leat 3 yards every cary. I have only used him inside the red zone though. Just Like the bears.
