Way to many tipped ***** at the line of scrimmage. Would like to see the pass game being decided by QB, WR's and DB's abilities.

On topic of Line of scrimmage, Way to many dump off's to Blocking backs which are causing defensive holding or interceptions. Saw this in one of my games today and it made zero sense

http://mfn11.myfootballnow.com/watch/599#113499

WR's are breaking to many tackles thus increasing the big play dramatically. This needs to be cut down.

3rd and short runs. Way to many stuffs. The O-Line and lead blocking back know the point of attack by the HB and would seem they could be picking up the penetration but more often than not the FB runs by him and the O-Lineman doesnt even touch the Defensive lineman. I would love to see the success rate of completing a 3rd and inches compared to a 3rd and 10+ as I am thinking you have a better shot throwing for the first down then running for it.

QB's are completing medium and longer passes to easily. This needs to be cut down. Have 10-15 passes a game of 20+ yds is out of control

Blocking on a QB scramble. I have seen many times blockers just run right past the QB and not engage the pass rush once QB is out of pocket.

Late game blowouts. I would rather have the opportunity to have my players come off the bench instead of my players stop trying. An easy setting for this like the one used in preseason should do it.

Substitutions/Fatigue: I would like this to be set for positional setting instead of team general.

I am sure there is more but nothing coming to my thoughts at the moment

So you like 10-7, 9-6 or 14-13 games? They're OK BUT...............

Suppose you Drafted all of the players "LIVE" during the draft, and you had a very good Draft, instead of most others filling out the draft queue and having no 'real' control of who they draft, should you be penalized for having a suddenly GREAT TEAM? Because you know what you are doing? And do it right?

I think not!

Very good teams should be able to show they are great teams, No?

Not everyone does it the right way, if they did, EVERYONE would have a very good team OR a very mediocre team, which would be nice. However, that will probably never happen. At least, not till everyone goes thru quite a few Drafts and Picks. I wonder how many players look to lose games on purpose to get the top picks, honestly. Too bad you have to be a loser to get the top players. That is, until the trade offers begin.........Open Season!

Also, I still say that teams should be locked from trading after a certain number of trades each season, I'm thinking 2 trades per season. Too many times, I see people trading declining (-) player rating numbers, for 1st or 2nd round picks. That's BS! Taking advantage of lesser experienced players, it seems. You could maybe change the process as Leagues get older, say after 5 seasons open trades up to unrestricted dealing as everyone will have time to develop their own players and make SMARTER trades.

If you have 7 picks and you only want to use 3 or 4 of them, leave the rest, someone else could use them. One Descent player(they don't need anyway) and Picks #5,6,and 7 (they don't want) will get and have gotten them a 1st rounder.

I think his suggestion is to give the option to pull your starters if the game is out of hand to prevent the risk of injury. That is on the list of TODO's, and would be completely optional (you could still be the 2007 Patriots if you wanted to)

I didnt say i wanted low scoring games at all. Dont even know where that came from and if thats the case I would be going totally against what has made me successful in all leagues as I am at the top in scoring in pretty much every league I am in.
