OK, this one was tough. Because EA only released two Backyard Ballers that get Steelers chemistry (and both only get X1 Backyard Ballers chemistry), it's tough to make this squad and it requires that you use the greasy fast Peyton Manning at QB. That said, it's a lot of fun. Every single lineup spot must have a Steelers player or a Backyard Ballers player (unless you use a Steelers defensive or offensive playbook, which I do not). Here it is, folks...
The above squad is really just for fun, as it's not as complete as my high-end 98 OVR 50/50 Steelers team. That said, the defense on this team is probably even better, as you get the best, tallest secondary in the game with Randy Moss (Outside CB, 6'4", 99 Speed, 97 Acceleration), Julio Jones (Deep FS, 6'3", 99 Speed, 96 Acceleration), Jimmy Graham (Sub-LB, 6'7", 98 Speed, 95 Acceleration), and Tiki Barber (Slot CB, 5'10", best Ability mix for a slot CB in Under Pressure & Acrobat, 99 Speed, 97 Acceleration). You also get a ridiculous edge rusher in Barry Sanders with 98 Speed and 97 Acceleration. The offense ain't bad, led by 92 Speed Peyton Manning (LOL), with a one-two punch of Micah Parsons (97 Speed & Acceleration) and Derwin James (98 Speed, 96 Acceleration) at running back, along with Trevon Diggs at WR (6'1", 99 Speed, 98 Acceleration, Route Technician), Warren Sapp at RG (1 AP for Post Up), and Trent Williams at FB (91 Speed, 98 Acceleration, great at lead blocking at FB & doing it all as my TE2).
It'll be fun to take this team into WL and see how I do. I think my offense may be a shade worse, but the defense should be as good or better. We shall see.
