FOF (any versions) : all-time career records for your team

Darkiller · 06-13-2003, 07:30 AM

What are they ? I'm interested in knowing yours.

Here are mine, for the San Francisco 49ers (FOF2) :

Passing Yards : 61 479 (Brock Sheriff)
Touchdown Passes : 525 (Brock Sheriff)
Rushing yards : 9 461 (Oliver Ramirez)
Touchdown carries : 78 (Olibver Ramirez)
Receiving yards : 13 987 (Dave Samuelson)
Touchdown catches : 132 (Dave Samuelson)
Tackles : 1013 (Skip Heffernan)
Interception : 55 (Luke Gardner)

For the record, I use a West Coast offense style of gameplan.
How do these numbers compare to some of your all-time career leaders ?

Fritz · 06-13-2003, 07:59 AM

Dar - I will have to see if I can get into FOF2001 on an old machine. The QB who helmed my All-Air-Attack (or Air Fritz) project retired with around 98,000 passing yards.

scooper · 06-13-2003, 08:11 AM

Skip Heffernan was a beast.

QuikSand · 06-13-2003, 08:18 AM

A few from my "Island of Misfit Toys" team in FOF4:

Passing: Jumbo Hou - 45,949 yds, 295 TDs,
Rushing: Carlos Stewart - 11,320 yds, 61 TDs
Receiving: Fred Bauer - 809 receptions, 10,766 yards, 87 TD
Defense: Jon Tobeck (safety) - 97 int, 1,228 tackles, 279 passes defensed
Sacks: Everett Money - 85.5

All these players were free agents I picked up after they went undrafted (as was my whole team)

Darkiller · 06-13-2003, 08:30 AM

too bad FOF2 didn't keep track of Sacks for franchise records.

cthomer5000 · 06-13-2003, 08:32 AM

I'll definitely fire up my 2001 game when I get home. I have a shitload of QB's with insane stats. I was thinking of starting a thread like this the other day, I would really like to know the best season/careers anyone has ever had on the hardest difficult settings.

Off the top of my head I can only recall:

Passing TD's (season): 47

cthomer5000 · 06-13-2003, 08:40 AM

I run a pretty pass-heavy offense, details of how I run it are on the old board:

this offense cannot be stopped

To maximize proficiency in a few areas I skimp on special teams and essentially max out:

split back
i-form
weak
strong

man-to-man defense
3-4 defense
goal line defense
nickel
dime

edit: for clarification I do not use any other formations on offense or defense.

Receiving becomes a complete group effort, the ball really gets spread around evenly. Generally 3-4 players are close to the same for tops in team receptions. fullbacks can put up insane receiving stats in this offense.

QuikSand · 06-13-2003, 08:48 AM

Just to help avoid confusion for relatively new FOFCers, cthomer's commenbt above apply to him playing in FOF 2001 (or 2002) - the generation-old game. You won't find training settings like those in FOF4, if you're looking.

cthomer5000 · 06-13-2003, 09:03 AM

QS, thanks for the needed clarification.

When I get the chance this weekend, I'll also post the details of a career for one of my players who I feel was royally screwed in not being selected for the hall of fame.

When I started playing my current career my goal was to take a marginal, or even bad, player and make him a hall-of-famer. I reached for a marginal RB in the draft who I thought would be just good enough to go the distance. He retired the leagues all-time leader in rushes, attempts, and rushing touchdowns, and was shut out from both the league and team hall of fame. That was 2018 or so. 50 years later, he is still in the top 10 all-time for rushing.

what about his YPC?

it totally sucked, but cut the guy a break!

He had a few of the all-time best yardage seasons, but only had about 5 league-honors. He was generally the #3 or 4 back for 12+ consecutive years. Think Curtis Martin in real life, always good, never the best.

edit: And still, to be ignored for his own team's hall of fame? that seems pretty extreme.

scooper · 06-13-2003, 09:24 AM

How was the O-line. I've found with a good line, just about any running back can be a good back.

Darkiller · 06-13-2003, 09:29 AM

Well to me that's already quite an accomplishment to earn 5 of these over the course of a career...
incredible that he got snubbed like this by everyone. He probably got himself into big time off-field troubles which the league AND the team didn't feel like being associated with...lol

scooper · 06-13-2003, 09:30 AM

Yeah, did he ever gamble?

cthomer5000 · 06-13-2003, 09:38 AM

It was amazing. My whole career was geared around this single player, so I built the best line money could buy, had an outstanding fullback that was racking up tons of all-league honors blocking for him, and ran the offense just for my running back. I didn't care about anything except running like crazy and making the playoffs.

In FOF2001/2002 I'd agree that any RB who's at least decent can put up passable numbers. Only truly great backs can keep their YPC near 5. My guy was probably 3.5 YPC or so for his career.

Senator · 06-13-2003, 09:40 AM

I had a running back in FOF2 that had over 20,000 career rushing yards. I have never had anything close to that since. I have a screen shot somewhere if I can find it.

scooper · 06-13-2003, 09:41 AM

Sounds like his best attribute was being durable, able to handle a lot of carries which slowly brought his stats up.

Fritz · 06-13-2003, 09:53 AM

I just wonder if YPC is part of the HOF criteria.

---
In FOF2001 I noted that I had a QB that would often pass for 5000 yards+ & 40+ TD in a season. During this same time I rarely ran the ball. Over the course of 20 years not one OL made it to the HOF. I chalk that up to a lack of Key Run Blocks. Obviously, your RB was missing something the system needed.

A-Husker-4-Life · 06-13-2003, 01:09 PM

I recruited a WR for my Husker Dynasty, his name was O.J. Oceann... Here are his 4yr career stats;

512 catches 128 avg per year

8,759 yards 2190 avg per year

98 td's 24.5 avg per year

Also, I played with the bowl system, not the playoffs. So he only played 13-14 games a year.... He is hands down the best player in my 75 year dynasty.

Happy29 · 06-13-2003, 01:21 PM

I had a Qb for my Notre Dame Dynasty named
Sam Hendricks Green Valley HS
he had like 12390 yds passing in 4 seasons
sad thing is he would have broken the all time record for passing yds but got hurt his final 2 games .
His successor didnt really pan out

that is HUGE production, man O man...whaou...
In what kind of offensive system did you play then ? very vertical favouring the deep balls ?
I'm never seen a WR with such production...

Bishop · 06-13-2003, 05:08 PM

Best I've had with a QB is

Ralph Easter -

97,630 career passing yards

1,007 career passing touchdowns

on 3,378 completions.

Was all passing offense after he developed, his career QB rating was about 85 even though he averaged about 30 INTS and had a career completion percentage of 38%.

cthomer5000 · 06-14-2003, 03:50 PM

EDIT: This is all for FOF2001

This career is in 2066, and I've been a pass heavy team pretty much since 2015 or so. Here are some of my biggest records

Passing
Passing Yards (career) : 60,754 - Alan Bell
Passing Yards (season): 5,036 - Julio Greer
Passing TD's (career): 482 - Wendell Myers
Passing TD's (season): 47 - Marshall Gillespie
Passing Td's (game): 7 - Marshall Gillespie
Passing Td's (playoff game): 7 - Wendell Myers

other
Rushing yards (game): 352 - Marcus Janes
Receiving Toudhowns (career): 126 - Oliver Ancheta

nilodor · 06-14-2003, 04:01 PM

For FOF 4 here are mine:

what version was this? How can he possibly have thrown for so many yards/Tds?

assuming it was a 20 year career, that would have been an average of 4,881 yards & 50 touchdowns?

Fof2k2, all passing offense... He played 287 games.. tds per season were...

76
76
74
68
68

65
60
58
56
51
50
47

42
40
39
28

Didn't bother to go through all passing yard records to get those together, but he had 10 seasons with 5000+ passing yards, with his highest being 6,609. 13 games with 7-8 touchdowns thrown, and 29 games with 500+ passing yards. Needless to say I've got several recievers with some high career recieving stats.

Most amazing cornerback I have ever seen. Played 18 years and had a high of 16 and only one season less than 6.

Doug5984 · 06-15-2003, 06:10 PM

From an FOF2001 career that lasted up until about 2090 when FOF4 came out.

Rushing- All by Marty Singleton, player 16 years started 256 games. Was a first round pick in the first draft.

Carries- 5,779
Rushing Yards- 2,4423
Rushing TDs- 204
All League Honors- 30

My team was very running oriented while he was on the team. Also, as he started getting older and his skills decreased I kept him as the starter even when he probably shouldn't have been.

Passing- Eric Cooper.
Inducted into the HOF in the year 2045. Played 18 years started 277 games.

Completions- 5,059
Passing Yards- 63,512
Touchdowns- 440
All League Honors- 12(???)

It has been a very long time since I played this career so I dont really remember a lot of the details about it, but I think he was just a very very consistant QB and never put up *great* seasons. While he was my QB my offense was more passing oriented.

My best TE (inducted to the HOF with 100%)
Clyde Cobb- 13 seasons, 208 games.
Receptions- 662
Recieving Yards- 9,053
Touchdowns- 66
All League Honors- 10

And strange enough I have never really had WRs who have had very productive careers, all the best ones I have only have around 12,00 or so yards...good but nothing spectacular.

Ryche · 06-16-2003, 08:52 AM

Baltimore Ravens through 2020 (FOF4)

Passing Yards - 33,588 (Monty Farmer)
Passing TDs - 226 (Monty Farmer)
Rushing Yards - 7,924 (Bernard Bond)
Rushing TDs - 40 (Brock Belyeu)
Receiving Yards - 15,230 (Mercury Mills)
Receiving TDs - 114 (Mercury Mills)
Interceptions - 46 (Percy Griffin)
Tackles - 802 (Burt Curtis)
Sacks - 69 (Shaun Lacasse)

Farmer was just elected to the HoF but was never all that spectacular. Mercury Mills has definitely been the star of this career so far, easily the best receiver I've had in any version of the game. He just retired this season and has the TD record by 34.

Sacks have been my biggest problem so far, Lacasse is the only one to ever get as many as 13 in a season but he retired after only 7 seasons.
