In your opinion, under most rule sets, can you have two different players in the same exact pose, number and name, who run lets say, the sweep left and the other, sweep right? this would confuse the opponent coach (atleast initially) into wondering how this "individual" can run sweeps to both sides.
ESPECIALLY IF HE IS ON A ROOKIE BASE.
you can do this (same player # on different figures/bases on the same team) and it will be cool, but after a couple of runs - the word would get out. I think in order to make this a success, you would have to make that player completely the same except for the base direction. you would need to usethe same base type for each of the same player.

My preference is to use different players altogether. For example, if I was using the Cowboy - no hate mail please it is only an example - and had an all time team, why wouldn't you have a Dorsett that does what Dorsett does...and have a M. Barber do what he does; and a E.Smith that does something different from both of them; then a R.Newhouse would block but can be used as a option QB on the trick play...etc

It's more fun for me to have a guy come off the bench and be the man for one game but team-wise he might be the 3rd or 4th RB off teh bench.
