User Created 1958 Season for PBF Version 1.0 | Pizza Box Football

Here are the PIZZA BOX FOOTBALL (PBF) game ratings for the 1958 season (Version 1.0). This is a user created season-the company was notified about this and I want it to be clear that they are in no way involved in this.
Since I don't know the formulas and numbers in back of the charts they use for their different teams, this 1958 season is totally subjective and is just my 'Guess' as to how they might be rated.
I use the 2005-2006 teams charts to play with. PBF's different seasons have subtle differences in the charts from year to year-I guess based on league avgs. etc.
I believe the 2005-2006 charts reflect a 59% completion pct. provided the proper ratio of Short and Long passes are attempted and against the 'average' defenses, whereas 1958 the completion pct. was 49% I believe and much lower interception rates.
There was more downfield passing in 1958, so I tried giving teams ratings in a way to discourage or encourage selecting certain plays.
Anyways for some it might be fun.
Any comments/criticisms are welcome.
Thanks
Joe Geistwhite

We originally created our base system for PBF in the late '80s, but the version published in 2005 represented the contemporary league.

We do update teams each year. We haven't gone back to previous eras to re-balance the game. I applaud Joe for his efforts. I hope folks enjoy using his teams.
