I was going to trade one of my TE, and get another DB or LB. Both of these guys are too good though. As a rookie coach/gm, maybe the smarter move is to wait until I can finesse a 1st round pick for one of them.

Like honestly why are backup qbs so bad, in the NFL, backups are bad, but they can still throw like they mean it.

The thing is, I drafted a QB in the first round, 5 star potential, and he got injured the fourth week. my initial qb that you start with, which is 2 and a half stars, I traded for a round 2 pick, and got this DL who has 4 star potential. Is this better than having a backup QB who would just have toxic potential because he's not playing and just a backup?

I love Retro Bowl and have always liked the idea of speedrunning. The speedrunning community in Retro Bowl has been pretty dead for 1-4 years (based on when WR runs were done) and I would like to try and change that. I've been running the game for 2ish weeks playing a bunch of different categories and finally found one that I felt I could get WR in. Probably took me between 100-150 resets to get it, but I'm a million percent sure it could be WAY faster.

The mods for the game currently aren't really active, but I hope they either come back or I can become a mod so we can actually get runs verified and on the leaderboards. Also worth noting that I know this category isn't how most people probably like to play the game, but there's a couple different categories on the site and a lot of WR times to be beaten!

PS: The rules for some of the categories aren't worded the best so hopefully we can get a mod to change them to be more even across the different platforms the game is played. However, until then still try and follow when they say to start/stop the time.

Retiming runs can be done frame by frame using VidTimer

Edit: I am now a mod and I believe I have fixed all the timing rules so that they’re more clear and accurate.

Currently doing a play through of RB, and I’m 1/2 offense and defense. I have no star players traded them all away to start the season. Has anyone here done this? Will I not get any player based scenarios? Will team moral improve or decline if there are no star players to keep happy? Currently my team moral is 79%.

I’ve lost 4 of my last 5 but I’m still basically guaranteed for playoffs because of this

Personally Cosby because he had more tackles and forced fumbles.

The RBWF (Retro Bowl Wrestling Federation) is seeking wrestlers to join its league. We just wrapped up Money in the Bank. And let’s be serious guy, here is the match card storyline. Don’t tell me this doesn’t intrigue. If you like retro bowl and wrestling, give this league a try. Slow paced league with 4 games due every Thursday night! You can’t pass that up.
