For a few seasons, I've teased about the 300 Club, but I do think it's important to preserve the history of this league. We have (on average) one or two teams rotate management each season, but many of us have been playing since early on. The flourishes like the twitter feed and news reports from Coif Jenshaw, the consistent team updates from dang, myself, and others, and the occasional statistical observations are what keep this league fresh when play isn't the most exciting. Hopefully, we are creating an investment in our simulated league that keeps people coming back.
The 300 Club represents a statline that cannot be easily achieved without consistency, endurance, and a modicum of success. It seems obvious but it would take at least 6 seasons of 50 TDs to get to that point, but it's far more realistic with the current game engine to do it in about 8 seasons. In 19 seasons, there are only five quarterbacks to have reached that threshold. Spinner will likely never be surpassed but he had the benefit of throwing during the halcyon days of 0.4.4 when the best threw 60+ TDs per season (Spinner threw 93 TDs in 2020). In any case, here are the inductees of the 300 Club and we have a few more on the rise in the upcoming seasons.
