Move the Bills and Oilers to 3 & 4 as they had both good QB, WR's and RB. If the Eagles had ONE good WR then they would be number 3 but they don't. Oilers had FOUR GREAT WR's and a great QB and a decent RB (who fumbled every other caryy but hey!) Redskins would be a top 3 team if QB didn't suck so bad; ditto for the Raiders!

Bo Jackson is the best running back in the game, bar none. And Marcus Allen is probably top 5. However, if I pick a running play every time and force you to beat me with one of the most inept passing games in the game, I'm going to beat you every time. Now if you're playing against the computer you may have a point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EasternOHBillsFan Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Sorry, but your list sucks. Here is mine: 1. Bills (Kelly, Lofton, Reed, Beebe, AND Thomas) 2. Raiders (Bo Jackson's speed) 3. Chiefs (Okoye's power was legendary) 4. Oilers (The receivers!) 5. Dolphins (Marino and receivers, but the running game sucked with Byars)* 6. 49ers (See Dolphins - great passing game, weaker running game) 7. Giants (clone of last two) 8. Eagles (Great defense and passing game) 9. Bears (Great defense and tricky RB) 10. Redskins (Best balance) *I personally caused Marino to fumble so often by calling the rollout play and blitzing with Biscuit that it is a fatal weakness...

C.Biscuit97 Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Awesome topic. The greatest video game ever. Luckily, we have a working NES (complete with a vidoe game on top of the Tecmo and my Bills' Relentless Book on top of the Nintendo to counterbalance). My roommates and I play all the time and will be having a Tecmo tourney soon ($10 buy-in, pizza and beer, winner takes the rest). IMO, there's no way the Bills are lower than #2. They are the most balanced team in the game. They don't have a weakness. I refuse to use them because they are 2 dominant. QB Eagles is the ultimate weapon and is a female dog to play against. Also, Robb Thomas of the Chiefs (white wr) is sneaky good. There's nothing as depressing as your friend catching a bomb with Thomas and singing one of Robb Thomas' many cheesy songs. Quick trivia: there are 2 active players in TSB? Also, there are at least 3 former or current head coaches in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Former Canisius High School great Phil McConkney is the starting kick returner in the original Tecmo. IMO, that would be better than catching a touchdown in some meaningless Super Bowl.

I scored 100 points in a game. I would prove it to you if I could. 1. Call the Marino rollout play every time. 2. Use Bennett to blitz up the middle and sack Marino. 3. More often than not, Marino fumbles, scoop up, and score fast. The Chiefs with Okoye were crazy good- he'd break tackles like crazy, and the passing game was good. I'm not on crack...

auburnbillsbacker Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 The eagles were unstoppable. Here is all you had to do. 1) Pick a pass play 2) If your opponent covered your receivers than you ran Cunnigham 3) If your opponent used the controlled player to attack Cunningham, you passed the ball 4) td ever time If things the bills were the 3rd best team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
My Friends Call Me Tebucky Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Ahh, the old nose tackle dive play. I'd put Chicago into the top 5 teams because you couldn't stop Refrigerator Perry on the nose tackle slant dive at the QB. The NT from the Packers was really great at that too. The Chiefs and Giants were very underrated in that game because you block like 70% of field goals and extra points with Derrick Thomas and Lawrence Taylor, it seemed.

Yes, he's damn good (that's why I have the Eagles ranked 4th), but by no means unstoppable. The cliche response when discussing Tecmo is, "oh Bo Jackson is sick" or "Cunningham is unstoppable," but don't forget there is a lot of defensive strategy going on in a good game of man vs man Tecmo Super Bowl. And second, yes, the NT dive is literally unstoppable and is a glitch in the game. Should never be used between two consenting players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
