The All Time NFL Draft Tournament: ROUND TWO BEGINS NOW
Brooklyn Zoo asked me to fill in for him this round, as he's out somewhere.
This is a tough matchup for either team.
Offense: Obviously Jim Brown is the guy in play here. VX's defense seems to be built to stop the passing game moreso than the run, so Brown will get a fair amount of carries here. His career ypc of 5.2 will be of significant benefit here, as I don't see that defense doing anything to stop that. The passing game will be a controlled type, as Dan Marino is a smart quarterback who can throw it anywhere on the field, and he'll be asked to keep passing routes short and to the sides, where Harrison and Lofton can excel. Maynard will catch the middle routes as well as Antonio Gates. Daryl Johnston would block for Jim Brown and Dan Marino, occasionally getting a few FB dump passes to keep the defense honest. The offensive line in front can neutralize the pass rushers of VX's defense because it's all fat fucks here, which guys like Seymour has shown an inability to get around. Basically the best offensive scheme here to use is the West Coast offense, which can offset any defensive advantages VX might have.
Defense: VX ain't gonna pull a 2000 Rams on this defense. The speed he has will be offset by Landry's Doomsday Defense, which Zoo has done a good job of assembling good personnel for. VX's only hope is a deep vertical passing game, which John Elway isn't known to be able to sustain for long stretches of time. The defense has a fair amount of heavy hitters to rattle his small receivers, and they WILL be rattled. His offensive line is good but the defense will be able to get through and sack Elway 3-5 times in the game, which is all that is needed. VX has no running game to speak of, because Marshall Faulk isn't a strong runner, and will be taken down easily by those guys.
Special Teams: Rob Bironas will kick from 45+ if needed to be, and he will convert most of them. Sean Landeta will do a good job of keeping Tim Brown's returns to a minimal with precise booting. VX has Matt Stover to do the field goals, which is okay, but he has no punters. This will mean a lot of short field opportunities for this team, and it can be exploited.
BZ 31, VX 14 is my estimated score.
