Utilizing FBPro98 with the VPNFL files, rating system and renamed stock gameplans, I am currently playing a 12 team, USFL league.  I GM all 12 teams in regards to roster management, drafting, free agency, etc. The renamed stock gameplans take care of the gameplans and profiles) that started in the year 2000.  I am currently in week 9 of the 2001 season.  I am digging this league so much, I decided to share on this forum.  The first couple of posts will show the history of the inaugural season (season stats, standings, playoffs, etc.).  Then I will provide week by week results with interesting notes from that week.  Hope you will follow along!

It has been quite a while since I updated this thread, so let me bring you up to date:
- I am now using XEG Football to simulate the 2006 2KFL season which will be the 7th season I have simulated (2004 was finished in FBPro98; the 2005 season was actually simmed in Draft Day Sport 2021)
- Before the 2005 season, the 2KFL expanded to 18 teams (Memphis Showboats, Pittsburgh Maulers, Houston Gamblers, San Antonio Gunslingers, Oklahoma Outlaws and Jacksonville Bulls).  The Pittsburgh Maulers were the lucky team to win the number one pick and selected QB Aaron Rodgers.  Some other notable rookies chosen in the 2005 draft were QB Ryan Fitzpatrick  going to the Houston Gamblers, QB Alex Smith going to the San Antonio Gunslingers and DE DeMarcus Ware going to the Boston Breakers and CB Pacman Jones going to the Washington Federals who seem to love stacking their secondary with front-line elite prospects in the draft.
- The Washington Federals ended up winning the 2004 2KFL Bowl defeating the Chicago Blitz.  The 2004 League MVP was Tampa Bay QB Marc Bulger.  The Defensive Player of the Year was Philadelphia Stars CB Damon Moore.  The Offensive and Defensive Rookies of the Year were Birmingham Stallions WR Wes Welker and Washington Federals S Sean Taylor.
- The Los Angeles Express defeated Tom Brady (who also won 2005 League MVP award) and the Philadelphia Stars to win the 2005 2KFL Bowl.  The Defensive Player of the Year was Michigan Panthers S Earl Little.  The Offensive and Defensive Rookies of the Year were Oklahoma Outlaws HB Ronnie Brown and Washington Federals CB Chris Harris.  
As an aside, I will be providing weekly update recapping each game with interesting things that happened during the game
 
The 2006 2KFL Draft took place a couple of weeks and the results are below:
 
ROUND 1 ARI WR Brandon Marshall DEN G Chris Chester OAK QB Jay Cutler TBY LB Chris Greenway BOS WR Marques Colston HOU LB D'Qwell Jackson BIR DE Mario Williams OKL LB DeMeco Ryans SAT LB A.J. Hawk MIC C Nick Mangold PIT LB Stephen Tulloch WAS LB Rocky McIntosh CHI LB Thomas Howard JAX DT Haloti Ngata NWJ WR Greg Jennings MEM WR Santonio Holmes PHI DE Tamba Hali LAX DE Rob Ninkovich ROUND 2 ARI LB James Anderson DEN WR Delanie Walker OAK WR Jason Avant TBY HB Maurice Jones-Drew BOS LB Ernie Sims HOU S Antoine Bethea BIR DT Kyle Williams OKL LB Omar Gaither SAT DE Elvis Dumervil MIC QB Vince Young PIT LB Clint Ingram WAS LB Tim Dobbins CHI CB Tim Jennings JAX DT Domata Peko NWJ G Zach Strief MEM QB Tarvaris Jackson PHI LB Keith Ellison LAX S Donte Whitner As you can see, this draft was extremely Linebacker heavy, which was needed because the league had a TON of Linebackers retire.  The next few post will go by division with team info

Utilizing the very creative team creation tool located within XEG Football (which uses season stats to populate positional attributes), I converted a 10 team league I created with the Flash Football table top game into the TTFL utilizing the XEG Football engine for game play.  The game is free and located at https://xegstudios.com/.  Though XEG Football does not have the capability for season play yet, the game does have a very nice feature where you input the prior season stats for the teams and the game automatically ages the players, improving some or declining others based on their stats and years experience.  Utilizing Excel and the exportable CSV files the game generates, you can easily track weekly, seasonal, career stats, while letting the game engine play out the game (and the game designer provides very copious notes showing you what is underneath the hood for the engine and how the play results are determined).  Simply put, this game is tailor made for those looking to replay old NFL, College, USFL, etc seasons.  Build your rosters, input your team player stats and away you go.
 
My league has 10 Teams:
Eastern Division - Madison (WI) Pandas, Newark (DE) Bees, Norfolk (VA) Swans, Orlando (FL) Warthogs, Rochester (NY) Cockatiels
Western Division - Albuquerque (NM) Gazelles, Aurora (CO) Coyotes, Eugene (OR) Frogs, San Jose (CA) Mandrills, Wichita (KS) Cheetahs
The league plays a 9 game schedule and the top 2 teams from each division make the playoffs.  I have currently completed Week one of schedule with the following results 
Newark Bees 27 @ 34 Aurora Coyotes Albuquerque Gazelles 17 @ 21 Rochester Cockatiels Orlando Warthogs 35 @ 28 Eugene Frogs Norfolk Swans 9 @ 48 Wichita Cheetahs San Jose Mandrills 45 @ 49 Madison Pandas  
The next few posts will give a broad overview of the teams.

Here are some screeshots from the developer's website:
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks, we've added a page for this, https://gmgames.org/pro-strategy-football-2021/

I have really enjoyed your posts, as I remember playing as USFL when I had this game and still have some fantastic gaming memories. To this day I don't think I've put in more hours with any game(s) than the Front Page Sports football series. 

The 2000 Final Standings are below:

The New Jersey Generals, Michigan Panthers, Arizona Wranglers and the Washington Federals were the 4 playoff teams.  Arizona and Michigan advanced to the championship game, the 2K Bowl.
Arizona Wranglers defeated the Michigan Panthers 27-20 to win the 2K Bowl behind the huge efforts of HB Thomas Jones, who ran for 185 yards on the day with 3 TDs, earning the 2K Bowl MVP.

I love your passion for this league.

good

The much anticipated matchup between the Broncos and Raiders, both 8-5 and tied, along with the Chargers, for the AFC West lead coming into the stretch.
Hollas threw for over 350 yards in each of last season's 2 games (354 in Denver a 41-21 Raider victory, and 387 yds in Oakland, a 42-14 Raider victory). The Denver personnel are a bit banged up coming in. Starting HB Michael Bennet however, acquired in a trade with the Vikings before the season, is having a stellar year for Denver, averaging 4.9 yds a carry on 220 carries thus far and has rushed for 15 TDs. The Raider pass defense has had issues, but the Run defense has yielded an NFL low 2.7 yds/carry... a very large part of the Raider success, and the reason they have still looked good on defense.
The weather at game time was blustery, with a temperature of 53F and a brisk wind of 16mph.
The Broncos won the coin toss and took the field at their own 20 after a touchback on the kickoff.
A quick 3-and-out as Bennet carried twice for 4 yards and a sack on the lone pass play.
Hester fielded the ensuing punt at his own 36 and turned on the jets. After a 42 yard punt return, the Raiders scored on a one play strike from Hollas to WR Graddy, and it seemed that the Raiders would dominate this game.
At halftime the Raiders led by a 24-3 score. Bennet had been held to 13 yds rushing on 8 carries. The Raiders had played turnover free ball, and had converted 7-8 third downs...two of their more serious questions coming into the game.
In the third quarter, defense dominated, as both teams only managed  a FG, and the Raider lead going to the 4th Quarter stood at 27-6.
In the 4th Quarter, the Broncos staged a furious rally, with TD drives of 6 plays 72 yds, and 5 plays 58 yds. At 4:50 left to play, the score was Oakland 30 Denver 20. The Raiders punted from their own endzone, and Denvers PR, CB Brown, slipped into high gear, and brings the ball all the way back to the Red Zone with a 28 yard return to the Oakland 19.
4 plays later Bennet carries it in from 3 yards out, and the score is 30-27. Denver still has all their time outs, and their coach elects to kick off with 2:56 to play.
Raiders McCallum carries 3 yards- Denver Timeout #1. 2:49 to play, 2nd and 7 at the Raider 26. 
Raiders Hollas back to pass, no receiver open, he takes off on a scramble...2 yard gain, Denver Timeout #2 2:38 to play, Raider 3rd and 5 their own 28. Denver with one timeout remaining, plus the two minute warning.
On the Raider side... a coaching decision between running the ball to force another timeout, but low odds of a first down, or throwing the ball and if incomplete, only using a few seconds.
We opt to throw the ball. Hollas back to pass a quick out pattern...but the routes break down, and as he dumps it to the safety valve RB, the Broncos RLB steps in front, and the first Raider turnover of the game proves very costly. LB Jenkins sprints 14 yards before running out of gas. Denver 1st and 10 at the Oakland 17 YL.
Raiders D steps up and stuffs Bennet on 1st down for -2 Yds. 2nd and 12, a Fade route by the Broncos. WR Speece open in the End Zone, and the Broncos have their first lead 34-30 1:58 to play and the 2 minute warning.
Broncos kick a squib ball. Raider football, 1st and 10 Raider 38 Yard Line.
Hollas back to pass, sacked for a 9 yard loss. 1:47 2nd and 19 Raider 29.
Hollas back to pass...pump fake to WR2 Deary, WR1 Graddy streaking and UNCOVERED! Hollas hits him in stride at the Denver 48...40...35 brought down at the Denver 32 YL a 39 yard strike, Raider timeout #2. Raider 1st and 10. Graddy is winded and is replaced by WR 4 Erik Thomas... a speed improvement of 82 vs 78 but dropoff in "Hands" of 96-90.
Raiders line up with an empty backfield, 3 Wide Left 2 Right. Thomas on the Right goes in motion to the Left, the snap, Hollas back, throws into traffic in the middle of the field, Hester has it and is tackled immediately, gain of 11 moves the chains, first down Raider! First and 10 at the Denver 21. Raiders use their final timeout.
Hollas back to pass, sacked at the Denver 27, but this play will be brought back, Holding against the Defense, 5 yards and a first down...Raider 1st and 10 at the Denver 16, 1:01 to play.
Hollas back to pass, Deary in the endzone, TOUCHDOWN Raiders!
Raiders 37-34
San Diego 9-5 Oakland 9-5 Denver 8-6

I am going to set this up by bringing it from its beginning through the past few days in a couple of paragraphs.
Played with Sierra's FBPro98, using the VPNFL99 mod with some later additions of plays and game plans from VPNFL02.
 
The first season played was the 1998 season. The Raiders clawed their way to a 9-7 season, just missing the AFC Wildcard berth on the last week of play, after a 2-5 start. Week 17 saw them play a snow bowl playoff game for all intents and purposes in New England where the winner would be a playoff team the following week, and the loser would be finished for the year. The Patriots jumped to a 20-6 halftime lead before I made some halftime adjustments.  In the end they edged the Raiders 27-26 as the Raiders tried a 53 yd field goal on the game's final play after a 3 yd sack on 3rd and 8 from the 33. I was happy with the way my first season went overall.
The Raiders went 12-4 in '99 scoring 526 points, highest  in the league. That season after a 1st rd bye, they lost in their first playoff game 34-31 to the same Patriots who had bested them at the end of 97...a rivalry was brewing.
In 2000 the Raiders finished 10-6 and struggled most of the second half of the season as our starting QB Hostetler was injured in week6 against the Chiefs, then again in week9 immediately after coming back, against the Dallas Cowboys, out for the rest of the season. The team made the playoffs as a wildcard, but quickly exited in the Wildcard game against the Miami Dolphins 21-10.
2001 saw the Raiders return to excellence, with starting RB McCallum rushing for 1382 yds and starting LCB Woodson intercepting 6 passes in the season's last 5 games (9 overall) the team won their last 8 and finished 13-3. Playoff victories against the Steelers (27-13) and the Patriots in the AFC championship (28-27) they prepared to face the 15-1 Rams in the Superbowl. The hype of the AFCs top offense and the NFCs greatest show on turf was well deserved as the Rams won 42-38 in a game with 7 lead changes.
The 2002-2005 Raiders were always right around .500 (9-7, 8-8,8-8,9-7) and only made one playoff berth as a wildcard in 2004 in a subpar AFC with an 8-8 record and a quick loss to....those $#@** Patriots lol.
2006 saw the Raiders make a serious bid for an undefeated season, winning their first 12 before losing 2 of their next three. They finished 14-2 and breezed through playoff wins over the Cin. Bengals 38-6 and the New England Patriots 34-10...a Super Bowl matchup with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers was also overhyped as the Raiders destroyed the vaunted NFC repeating champions 42-13 to win the superbowl.
2007 saw the Raiders picking up where they left off, winning their first 10, and finishing 13-3. In the process setting a league record with 567 points scored, as well as a league record for point differential with only 210 points allowed. They once again destroyed their postseason opposition 41-10 over Miami, 44-3 over Denver in the AFC title bout...and 41-0 in the Superbowl victory over the Dallas Cowboys. At that point they had scored 40+ points in 11 straight games!
 
2008... the current season being played. The Raiders won their first 5 in much the same fashion, but a few cracks appeared. In week 3 the San Diego Chargers discovered a hole in the Raider pass defense and exploited it for 430 yds through the air from QB Rivers. The Raiders won 33-31 but it was the first time in 2 seasons +, they had yielded over 30 points, and was the most yds they had surrendered passing in our 10 years. The scouting report seems to have been not noticed by the next opponent Philadelphia, which we beat 44-3 to improve to 4-0. We next had our bye week. In week 5 we went back to work...against the same Cowboy team we had beaten in Superbowl. This time they had seen game film and we were in for a fight...they constantly beat our aggressive defense, burning blitzes for TD passes of 71 and 64 yds, and another stopped at our 3 by Asomugha that gained 45. The Raiders still pulled it out in a 37-34 OT win, but now WE needed to be the one adjusting.
2008 Week 6...a 34-23 defeat to the NY Giants...Eli Manning passing for 370 yds. We were 5-1, but suddenly much less secure in our future.
Week 7...26-14 victory over Buffalo, as the rain and wind made the hole in our defense less noticeable.
Week 8 a 33-27 loss to the Patriots in which Brady threw 4 TDs and 388 yds. We were 6-2 and still leading the AFC West by two games, but suddenly nervous.
Week 9 the second place San Diego Chargers in town for the rematch. They had been the ones to suddenly pounce on our weakness back in Week 3. This time they jumped early, and never let up...our 45-24 defeat was even more one sided than that score appears as we scored 21 in the fourth quarter after already being down 38-3.
We were suddenly 6-3 and only a game ahead of the Chargers and Broncos both.
Week 10, a matchup with the Arizona Cardinals who defeated us 33-30 in OT. The Chargers won their game as did the Broncos, and suddenly we are one of 3 6-4 teams on top of the AFC West.
Week 11... a revamped defense from the ground up in the playbook, a lot of bump and run, man-coverage...a bit fewer blitzes, and continuation of the basic play calling philosophy of "Put them into must pass situations" by being aggressive on 1st and 2nd downs, then backing off some and playing safe on most 3rds. The next team, the Redskins, were struggling offensively anyway as well (24th overall, 29th passing) so we had a "easy run through" to test our new plays. It was not easy though...the final score was a win, but not as much as I hoped after putting hours into the new plays...We won 31-26.
We are now 7-4. This is the current situation.

Tremendous stuff. Loved this game back in the day and reading your league recaps makes me want to fire it back up!

This has been a joy to follow!

2002 2KFL BOWL
Michigan 28 -- Denver 24 Mile High Stadium 44 degrees, sunny Denver wind N 17 mph, humidity 50% Michigan Panthers (7-5) 10 7 3 8 -- 28 Denver Gold (9-3) 7 7 7 3 -- 24 First Quarter Michigan - Becht 8 pass from Brooks (Lindell kick), 3:43 Denver - Enis 6 pass from Griese (Brown kick), 7:34 Michigan - Lindell 47 FG, 13:18 Second Quarter Michigan - Bryson 12 run (Lindell kick), 11:03 Denver - Faulk 3 pass from Griese (Brown kick), 14:03 Third Quarter Michigan - Lindell 18 FG, 5:34 Denver - Thomas 1 run (Brown kick), 10:01 Fourth Quarter Denver - Brown 30 FG, 2:58 Michigan - Bryson 8 run (Looker pass from Brooks), 11:50 2KFL Bowl MVP - Michigan WR Antwaan Randle-El With 5:17 left in the fourth quarter and Denver leading 24-20 from their own 26 yard line on 3rd and 18,  Denver QB Brian Griese throws a crushing interception into double coverage to Michigan CB Fakhir Brown, who returns the ball to the Denver 35 yard line.  Griese had WR Brandon Stokely matched up one-on-one going down the seam and he had FB Rock Cartwright in the flat wide open, yet he makes the awful decision to throw to a double-covered WR Dane Looker and it cost his team the title. 
In the ensuing drive, Michigan HB Shawn Bryson, a game day starter when HB Shaun Alexander was a late game day scratch due to his injury, was able to punch the ball in from the Denver 8 yard line for the game winning touchdown, on the road in Denver, for the 2KFL Bowl championship.  3 Denver turnovers (2 int, 1 fum) were really the difference in the game as everything else was really evenly matched (Michigan gained 319 yard in total offense, Denver gained 317 yards in total offense, Michigan was 5/13 on 3rd downs, Denver was 6/13, etc.).
Denver should be very disappointed in their loss, but those 2 late season loses, after a 9-1 start, was foreshadowing their weaknesses.  The Denver safeties in their secondary will need to be address for this team to stay strong.
Congratulations are in order for the Michigan Panthers.  They were a study in perseverance as their up and down season showed.  To go on the road twice and beat heavily favored home teams was a testament to their ability to rise to the challenge and fight through to the end.  Michigan has a strong offensive roster and a good defensive roster but they need consistency in order to defend their title next year.

History say no.  
New Jersey, despite sacking the Philadelphia QB 9 times, was not able to sustain much offense today.  This loss for New Jersey puts their hold on the wildcard spot (much less the division) in danger as Arizona, with a win, would tie them for the final playoff spot.
