You're right. I knew the number difference, but I guess I forgot that in the Genesis version (I didn't like the SNES version), Bledsoe wasn't in the final roster and it was Zolak as the starter. I guess that makes the passing success even stranger.

I'm up for a ladder as well.

Yeah. You could edit the colors in the DS version of the game. I don't know why they took it out of the XBox Live version. Doesn't make any sense, unless they are hoping to upgrade it and sell it to us again.

Cowboys numbers are accurate. Though the players the NES version have listed, don't match up with the 1993 rosters I pulled up from online. For example, Cowboys had 3 QBs, and Jason Garrett was one of them (if it's the 93-94 season), but there's only 2 spots for a QB.

It's as expected. Easy at start, and progressively harder as you win more games.

I can get past the helmets. But not the colors. I don't understand why this isn't in the game, when it was in the DS version of the game. Doesn't make any sense...

Reason being, if those are rosters then a file might be shared via Xport (which is what I use) and also using the Microsoft transfer cable (I purchased the 120 gb some time back). I'm guessing the answer is probably no, but I thought it might be worth asking.

The save file appears to be your season stat file, not the Roster file. If there is a roster file there, they are hiding it, or it's being saved somewhere else.

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.
