What kind of football background do you have?

[Bruffalo]

I saw Thurman Thomas at a car dealership once.  I'm basically in the NFL. 

[Heitz]

1 x Super Tecmo Bowl Champion, thank you. 🤷‍♂️

 

I Dominated our league one year in the early 90's thanks to the play "Throw to Jerry on the bottom!".  I will forever feel fortunate that I got to work with such talented athletes back then and that I was able to out think, out coach and out handshake every other exec in our league.  

[Royale with Cheese]

HS and played WR.

 

I have no clue how to watch film inside the trenches so I rely on them for their insight.

 

I watched film as a WR but there's not really much there.  The guy covering you....get away from him.  The only time film was important to me is if I played the slot and we had a toss sweep or jet sweep on my side and either had to take out the DE or linebacker.

I used to play college football at South Central Louisiana State University for the  Mud Dogs. Mother was not agreeable to the whole idea of me playing, but I was a natural at my position. Don’t get me wrong, I loved my job as a hydration specialist, but foozball was my true calling.

Just so long as you stayed away from that Vickie Valencourt.

The poll results on coaching experience explains a lot

I’ve been playing Madden since 2001 and BBMB/TBD since 2005. What does that get me?

How is Madden proficiency not considered here?

 

It’s how Tyreek preps for games… and he’s pretty good

Coached a YMCA football team, was asked not to come back the next year, my team doing coordinated celebrations after we destroyed teams was frowned upon.

I can't do that, but I do believe strongly in time travel.

It's Pole, and I am none.  German, Austrian, Dutch (wooden shoes, wooden head, wouldn't listen).  Although the Austrian bunch was figured out to really be Hungarian since they were born before the borders were redrawn.

I'm a long-time TBD lurker, although I prefer 'legitimate peripheral participant'. I was just thinking about this the other day. This is a great question and should be pinned as it would help me know who I should be listening to. Personally, I ran cross country in high school, but played tackle football after practice without equipment. Fortunately, everyone that played weighed somewhere between 115 and 125 pounds in the day.

I never played organized football, so I really have no idea how to break down what's going on during a game, and I refrain from criticizing players for what might look like bad football skills. But I was otherwise a pretty dedicated athlete, so I at least feel qualified to gripe about dudes being out of shape.
