My only critique of your team is that it needs more depth. One injury and you're ruined.

No, these guys are not the wussy players of today. They play hurt, if they are too injured, my locker rooms are bustling with activity, namely 100 players who are waiting for their chance eventually, in the meantime they are eating bon-bons and playing Air Hockey.

"Wussy" or not, a player can still get injured.

Injuries occur every game, injuries that require a player to leave a game do not always happen. Plus the guys on my team were the type of guys who play through pain. Heck even though every defense was stacked against him, Jim brown never missed a game in his 9 year career.

True, but he didn't have to run through a front four of Bruce Smith, Deacon Jones, Joe Greene, and Merlin Olsen and then try to break linebacker tackles from Jack Ham, Dick Butkus, Lawrence Taylor and Jack Lambert.

Well he did run through some rather talented defensive hall of famers. He survived rather well, but quit to make B-Movies at the height of his talents.
