Bad Moon Rison Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 VS. Round 3 result: Bo Jackson defeats Mark Carrier 27-14 David Fulcher defeats Derrick Thomas 25-8 Jackson can get past Carrier, but can he get past Fulcher? Fulcher plowed through the late DT. This should be an interesting matchup! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lhopital Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 I like Fulcher - fast, hard-hitting, lots of interceptions, and what he brings to the PR game (without the PR fix). I use him a lot. With that said, I have to go with the guy that can more readily impact the game. Interceptions and defensive stops are great, but they don't always put points on the board. In a shootout, it's a tough choice between a homerun guy and a drive-stopper. But, I'll take the (2nd best) offensive weapon over a defender.

orgg099 Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Here's how I see it...Bo just got the ball and popcorned Fulcher...TD!!!!Nuff said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomTupa Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 If you look up the name "Tecmo" in Webster's dictionary, you'll notice a little picture of Bo Jackson next to it. How can you argue with that?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkCarrier20 Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Wow, incredible match-up. Now we are really getting into the not so obvious portion of the bracket! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edisaurusrex Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 This pick made my insides hurt, had to go with Bo even though Fulcher is my fav on defense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ApolloSpeed Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 damnit ....I don't think I will be able to vote this round!!! how do you pick between best RB -vs- best defender?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shinybehiny2477 Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 i voted for fulcher cause to me he is the most dominant player in the game. yes even over qb eagles, jerry rice, bob nelson and bo jackson. guess i need a name change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
segathonsov Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Great match up, but eventhough Fulcher is a maxed out stat defender and rivals Bo on the defensive side. I really had no idea he even exhisted as a tecmo stud til 8 years after this game came out, because of a roomate in college puting the hurt on me with on day with the seldom used Bengals. And if you asked a lot of novice tecmo players, I'm sure many would miss fulcher.Got to go with Bo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lhopital Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 speaking of missing a player ... I got the game at age 13; I noticed Bob Nelson my first year in college. Now, I can't use him. Same could be said for Seahawks' Green or Cardinals' Young. To be honest, I played with Dallas at least half of the time ... trying to do everything with Danny Stubbs - yeah, ignorant.

TomTupa Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 You know how the HOF voters often won't vote for someone because they don't want it to be unanimous? Well, I'm changing my vote to Fulcher because it shouldn't be this much of a blowout. Any guy who's arguably the best defender in the game - and you can shake hands with at a Tecmo tournament - shouldn't get beat this bad.

wampus Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Bo Jackson has a huge impact on the running game AND passing game! I love Fulcher but he can only control so much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomTupa Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 Bo Jackson has a huge impact on the running game AND passing game! I love Fulcher but he can only control so much!Doesn't Fulcher have a huge impact on the opponent's running and passing games? I don't think Bo does much on D.
