Just a little slide show I put together of the top 5 players at every position except for oline,kicker, and punter. They go in the order of QB,RB,WR,TE,DL,LB,DB. Nothing special but enjoy. Long live TSB.
David Fulcher and Steve Atwater were my favorite safeties, Derrick Thomas, of course LT and Singletary were the best LBs. Great era to start up a football video game.
I remember watching this video not too long after it was uploaded and jamming to the music. I still like to come back every once in a while for nostalgia
The Houston Oilers passing game was unstoppable. They had 4 great receivers, swesome QB, a great hitting power line, and a decent running back. They also had a good D with Childress and Richard Johnson. I hated playing D against that team.
The Niners were just unstoppable in this game (specially in the playoffs). -Montana's weapons were infinite in Rice, Taylor, Jones, Craig, Rathman. -And even if Montana went down you had Steve Young to run the show! -What was even more awesome is that it was EXACTLY like this in REAL LIFE for the 49ers back then... oh the good ole' days.
Awesome, awesome videos. I agree 100% with every player you chose! I've never seen many of these pictures, it is very nice to be able to put their picture to their game character. Thank you very much! Love live TSB!
The most blatant omission has to be Deion Sanders at DB. (I think he may have had 81 Quickness) No undeserving guys up there, but maybe split up CB and S? At any rate, lists like these never please everyone. Good work and nice presentation.
neither of those QBs were in the players association so they couldnt legally use their names...same with Montana when he moved to the Chiefs or Thurman Thomas on the SuperNES version....
Funny how legends seem to grow with time. In the 1995 TSB 3 Final Edition when I unlocked all the hall of famers, Joe Montana's stats blew away everyone else's. In this game here's merely a first among equals (and probably underrated).
he was not part of the NFL Players Association at that time the game came out (because of a contract holdout i believe), so they could not use his name
Deion not on there? I must have missed him but if not he deserves to be. Drew Hill was sick on that game, also Stephen Baker on the Giants if anyone ever used them, him and Mark INGRAM would catch every bomb you threw and were fast as hell, sick!
He’s on there, but crazy to think they had Drew Hill, Ernest Givins in the top 5 and then they had Haywood Jeffries and Curtis Duncan who were studs too. They were powerful in the passing game
No Primetime? Jerry Ball and Bob Nelson both dive further than anyone on the game.(You need to run shotgun offense if the other player knows what he's doing)
I hated stopping Anderson more. But a lot of credit goes to Muster and the O line bumpin you. Okoye was awesome to play with, but I always felt he fumbled more than his ball control would suggest and it felt like he always got injured.
QB Browns actually BARELY ranks higher than Dan Marino for the fifth spot, because of his max running speed, which is a critical stat for Tecmo QBs. Overall they're basically equal. Ole Browns just doesn't have Clayton, Duper, Jensen and Edmunds to throw to.
3 part post. All and all a pretty solid list. Can't argue with the QBs (might've put Elway in in place of Moon as a pure QB, but Moon's supporting cast makes all the difference) RBs on the money. I agree that Sharpe should be in place of Drew Hill (always thought Givens was the top guy in the Oilers squad). Anthony Miller and Andre Reed def. honorable mentions.
He was pretty fast, second only to Bo. Sanders did not have all out speed, he was just incredibly elusive and hard to tackle. It was difficult to replicate that in the game. Bo was the fastest back in the NFL at the time, so they were pretty accurate.
Fro didn't split the DBs into CBs and Ss, other than that the list is pretty spot on. Lott is (arguably) the second best safety in the game behind Fulcher.
I gotta say I was impressed Bob Nelson was remembered. However, where's Fridge? He was powerful as hell, and you could do that NT dive with him as well. Loved Neal. He could block like a FB, run like a TB, and catch like a WR. I could put him at FB, Bailey at TB, and Muster at TB to seal off the edge on the toss sweep.
LOL I used to be the Giants and Neal Anderson would always break one or two of those damn HUGE runs where I could not stop him or catch up, he was flat out SICK.
Okoye was in there, but he was after Neal Anderson lol... I always thought Okoye was the 2nd best after Bo in that game... He would truck over people to!!!
You could make DE and NT separate, but in either case, Jerry Ball was superior to Bob Nelson. It's sad what happened to Dennis Byrd, but NO WAY does he or Millard belong in there above Pat Swilling. BTW, they are at LB because TSB only allowed for a 3-4, so one down lineman of a 4-3 team would be shifted back) I recall Charles Haley also being a monster (that mighta been the SNES version though...)
Haddix is BEAST in this game! Dude can pick anything thrown period. Also Craig "Ironhead" Heyward shoulda been on the list for rb's instead of Neal Anderson. When Heyward's condition is excellent only Okoye is harder to bring down imo.
Yeah Atwater, Deion and Lott should have been 1,2 and 3 in whatever order you wanted to put them.... They were unstoppable... This list is good, but def flawed
You could spend days pissing your opponents off with Bo Jackson, going back and forth. He was invincible, like he was in REAL LIFE! ... that is until he got injured :(
quickness does nothing....it is a programming glitch. to prove this, try using Jets' Mcmillan....and then try Miami's Oliver... They both have the same RS, RP, MS, but Mcmillian has 81 quickness verses oliver's 56 quickness. You will notice NO diffence, "speed" wise.
He was great at what he did, and that was lay you the hell out and put fear into you like someone said earlier, he was a pro bowl safety. Intercepting is not all things, you could get 2 a year and still be great on coverage and tackling etc., int's are not everything.
top 5 tho? we're talking montana, marino, okoye, rice, lott, deion, wayne haddix for da bucs(they sucked as a team but he caught everything), dave waymer (safety for da 49ers), L. Taylor....Dude, NEAL ANDERSON??? TOP 5??? WOW!!!!
Jensen has 19 more reception than Edmunds. And to the guy that said Doug Williams, well he's not in this game. And I won't even comment on Elway being better than Moon in this game.
Different styles. Bo was just so explosive and fast. Barry was incredibly elusive and hard to tackle. If Bo did not get hurt early and play for more than half a season (which he still got 1000 years every year) he probably be the GOAT. As it is now, Barry is GOAT in my opinion. I had 3 posters on my wall as a kid - Bo, Barry, and Marino (Dolphins fan)
Winning the Super Bowl for the first time was so exhilarating....Loved that game!
David Fulcher and Steve Atwater were my favorite safeties, Derrick Thomas, of course LT and Singletary were the best LBs. Great era to start up a football video game.

Yes Houston and SF were basically cheat mode on offense.
Darrell Green & Deion Sanders are missing. Also, Ozzie Newsome got snubbed in attributes and should've been on this list.
Rod Woodson had the same Maximum Speed as Bo Jackson: 75!
Phil simms, ottis Anderson, Andre Reed, Steve Jordan, Eric Metcalf, Greg Townsend, Ronnie lott, Deion Sanders..
ROD WOODSON WAS THE BEST CORNERBACK IN TECMO SUPER BOWL. HE WAS SUPER FAST & SUPER STRONG WITH GREAT HANDS. THE ULTIMATE BALL HAWK.😃😃😃😃😃😃
Awesome, awesome videos. I agree 100% with every player you chose! I've never seen many of these pictures, it is very nice to be able to put their picture to their game character. Thank you very much! Love live TSB!
LT is easily the most dominant player in the Tecmo games. Anyone who knows how to use him properly can stop ANY offense.
Okoye's maximum speed is less than his running speed.
The most blatant omission has to be Deion Sanders at DB. (I think he may have had 81 Quickness) No undeserving guys up there, but maybe split up CB and S?
At any rate, lists like these never please everyone. Good work and nice presentation.
Whoa whoa whoa...Ronnie Lott? Where the hell was he?
Christian Okoye is a beast in the game! Fast as hell and you can't tackle him. I like using him more than Bo Jackson.
Cornelius Bennett should be in the linebackers. I got 300 sacks in one year with him once.
No way. Fulcher was a maniac. Woodson would tackle in the endzone on kickoffs. I'd play with TB for the sole purpose of getting picks with Haddix.
Running speed and maximum speed are messed up.
I like to think of running speed as acceleration
Bob Nelson was shitting as nose tackle in Tecmo bowl, insta sacs all the time
neither of those QBs were in the players association so they couldnt legally use their names...same with Montana when he moved to the Chiefs or Thurman Thomas on the SuperNES version....
Funny how legends seem to grow with time. In the 1995 TSB 3 Final Edition when I unlocked all the hall of famers, Joe Montana's stats blew away everyone else's. In this game here's merely a first among equals (and probably underrated).
where is Deion Sanders and Lawrence Taylor
Tecmo BO is the greatest athlete in the history of the world! theres no contest.
Needs Dave Waymer, but still a great collection.
he was not part of the NFL Players Association at that time the game came out (because of a contract holdout i believe), so they could not use his name
I remember this music from somewhere! Man, that rocks!
Deion not on there? I must have missed him but if not he deserves to be. Drew Hill was sick on that game, also Stephen Baker on the Giants if anyone ever used them, him and Mark INGRAM would catch every bomb you threw and were fast as hell, sick!
Ronnie Lott
He’s on there, but crazy to think they had Drew Hill, Ernest Givins in the top 5 and then they had Haywood Jeffries and Curtis Duncan who were studs too. They were powerful in the passing game
This is the greatest game ever created... simple.
I love how Rod Woodson is white in the game
He is in real life
Straight up awesome man
No Primetime? Jerry Ball and Bob Nelson both dive further than anyone on the game.(You need to run shotgun offense if the other player knows what he's doing)
I hated stopping Anderson more. But a lot of credit goes to Muster and the O line bumpin you. Okoye was awesome to play with, but I always felt he fumbled more than his ball control would suggest and it felt like he always got injured.
Great video.... Good job man
QB Browns actually BARELY ranks higher than Dan Marino for the fifth spot, because of his max running speed, which is a critical stat for Tecmo QBs. Overall they're basically equal. Ole Browns just doesn't have Clayton, Duper, Jensen and Edmunds to throw to.
true but metcalf,slaughter and langhorne were still solid receivers in the catching field just wasnt as fast.
This game is GOATED
Ronnie Lott???
Also Okoye should be at least higher than Thurman. Thurman coughed the ball up and Okoye didn't.
and where is Sterling Sharpe
I know that’s right
3 part post. All and all a pretty solid list.
Can't argue with the QBs (might've put Elway in in place of Moon as a pure QB, but Moon's supporting cast makes all the difference)
RBs on the money.
I agree that Sharpe should be in place of Drew Hill
(always thought Givens was the top guy in the Oilers squad). Anthony Miller and Andre Reed def. honorable mentions.
whast with barry sanders being slow on this game??
He was pretty fast, second only to Bo. Sanders did not have all out speed, he was just incredibly elusive and hard to tackle. It was difficult to replicate that in the game. Bo was the fastest back in the NFL at the time, so they were pretty accurate.
Ronnie Lott??
Fro didn't split the DBs into CBs and Ss, other than that the list is pretty spot on. Lott is (arguably) the second best safety in the game behind Fulcher.
Nice job, loved it :D
Nostalgic
Ronnie Lott Andre Reed C'MON MAN
QB Bills is a force to be reckoned with. The pass play B Right is unstoppable, nobody can cover Lofton or McKellar.
I gotta say I was impressed Bob Nelson was remembered. However, where's Fridge? He was powerful as hell, and you could do that NT dive with him as well. Loved Neal. He could block like a FB, run like a TB, and catch like a WR. I could put him at FB, Bailey at TB, and Muster at TB to seal off the edge on the toss sweep.
u could do that with practically every dt. you just have a better shot for one thats quick.
Nice vid Fro, although it lacks Jeff George....
I dunno about this list.
LOL I used to be the Giants and Neal Anderson would always break one or two of those damn HUGE runs where I could not stop him or catch up, he was flat out SICK.
Yep, I used to keep stats manually, what do you want I was 11 when this game came out.
Neal Anderson is a beast in Tecmo bro... Plus he has one of the best FB blocking for him in the game... Bears running game is HARD TO STOP....
Okoye was in there, but he was after Neal Anderson lol... I always thought Okoye was the 2nd best after Bo in that game... He would truck over people to!!!
you put neal anderson in the but no okoye?
Okoye always coughed up the ball. Against the CPU if you happen to let Thurman go, he was gone. You could catch Okoye.
i think the cb and safeties shouldve been their own thing in the top 5
neal anderson absolutely whooped my ass on this game, glad he got some love
You could make DE and NT separate, but in either case, Jerry Ball was superior to Bob Nelson.
It's sad what happened to Dennis Byrd, but NO WAY does he or Millard belong in there above Pat Swilling. BTW, they are at LB because TSB only allowed for a 3-4, so one down lineman of a 4-3 team would be shifted back) I recall Charles Haley also being a monster (that mighta been the SNES version though...)
For some reason, the programmers made Nelson incredible.
finally, someone else who realizes how good wayne haddix was in this game.
All the other QBs listed were in fact better.
No deion sanders or steve atwater for defensive backs, thats weak
Mark Bavaro?
jerry rice was number one on there lol , pay attention , wheres deion
That was supposed to be Muster at TE.
Da moment I saw Neal Anderson, I left the room
HAHAHH WORD, Atwater was just FLAT OUT SICK on that game.
Ok...L.T.
Haddix is BEAST in this game! Dude can pick anything thrown period. Also Craig "Ironhead" Heyward shoulda been on the list for rb's instead of Neal Anderson. When Heyward's condition is excellent only Okoye is harder to bring down imo.
Yeah Atwater, Deion and Lott should have been 1,2 and 3 in whatever order you wanted to put them.... They were unstoppable... This list is good, but def flawed
You could spend days pissing your opponents off with Bo Jackson, going back and forth. He was invincible, like he was in REAL LIFE! ... that is until he got injured :(
WTF where was Andre Reed
tim brown was way better than any of the oilers. nice vid though!
Walter Payton and Dick Butkus aren't even on it
WTF where is Ronnie Lott man
And on top of that where’s Steve Atwaters
quickness does nothing....it is a programming glitch.
to prove this, try using Jets' Mcmillan....and then try Miami's Oliver...
They both have the same RS, RP, MS, but Mcmillian has 81 quickness verses oliver's 56 quickness.
You will notice NO diffence, "speed" wise.
not saying he belonged in the top 5, but roger craig wag a greek god come playoff time. just sayin.
love the music. lol
Walter Payton isnt in Tecmo Super Bowl and although Ronnie Lott is a very good back in this game he isn't a top 5 DB.
He was great at what he did, and that was lay you the hell out and put fear into you like someone said earlier, he was a pro bowl safety. Intercepting is not all things, you could get 2 a year and still be great on coverage and tackling etc., int's are not everything.
I meant to say "Long Live TSB" but I do love it haha
Anderson has more speed though... Muster blocks well and will buck some tackles but he's slow... Speed is HUGE in Tecmo bowl...
TOUCHDOWN THURMAN THOMAS
You must be an Eagles fan Mark Bavaro is not in the top five in tight ends the f*** out of here no Giants on this list very interesting.
top 5 tho? we're talking montana, marino, okoye, rice, lott, deion, wayne haddix for da bucs(they sucked as a team but he caught everything), dave waymer (safety for da 49ers), L. Taylor....Dude, NEAL ANDERSON??? TOP 5??? WOW!!!!
Jensen has 19 more reception than Edmunds.
And to the guy that said Doug Williams, well he's not in this game.
And I won't even comment on Elway being better than Moon in this game.
Emmitt Smith Troy Aickman Micheal Irvin were ha they the best so
I AM THE ALL-TIME BEST TECMO BOWL PLAYER. I WILL BEAT ANYONE. i want to have a huge tecmo bowl tournament, is anybody interested?
Me
@@Joe-k9m8p I'm Ready!
@@84slaughter we just need to figure out how to play online and we could set up a tournament that would be pretty dope
@@Joe-k9m8p That Would Be Sweet. I Was Just Playing The 1990 Season Last Night On An Emulator.
but good luck bringin okoye down- 95% of the time your guys would just bounce off
I loved it when he was in excellent condition. Unstoppable and fast to boot.
There aren't 5 plyrs in each position and Neal Andersen is not better than Thurman thomas
dont think there is an order in the listing of the top 5 shown here.
Novacek is better than Jackson. Just look at the stats. The only position in Tecmo that the Cowboys have the best player at.
jackson wasnt even the best catcher for the eagles. that would be keith byars with a 69 and their no.1 rb.
Oh and hell, Brad Muster (the fb u mentioned) is a better player on there than Anderson...
Bob Nelson is GOD on TSB.
Barry > Bo.
The man could not be stopped in the playoffs.
Different styles. Bo was just so explosive and fast. Barry was incredibly elusive and hard to tackle. If Bo did not get hurt early and play for more than half a season (which he still got 1000 years every year) he probably be the GOAT. As it is now, Barry is GOAT in my opinion. I had 3 posters on my wall as a kid - Bo, Barry, and Marino (Dolphins fan)
