Easily the GOAT of football sim games. The baseball one was pretty cool too, but the Football games ('95 & '98) were unmatched and would still be fun to play today.
The only knock I can think of is as seasons went on, teams would be heavy in QB positions (why would a team draft a QB when it has 6 already on its roster).
The create a play was VERY immersive and a really cool feature.
