Singleback Empty 4

By dashingtonv

When I filter by Empty 4 wide, I get a bunch of 1 TE / 4 WR personnel formations. That's good. When I filter by Singleback Empty 4 all personnel, I also get a bunch of 1TE/4WR personnel formations.

I don't have a way to select 1 RB / 4 WR plays.

Anyone else see the same?

Are you sure? 1TE/4WR means the backfield is empty and the TE is on the OL to block or be an eligible receiver.
1RB/4WR means the TE is not on the OL to block or be an eligible receiver, but the RB is in the backfield.
I've never had the issue you are claiming to have when filtering plays.

Yes, I'm sure.

Fortunately, I can just put all formations / all personnel and look for and select 1RB/4WR plays that way. I am owner in two leagues (Head coaches with West Coast Offense and Pass Focused Offense) and both teams have this behavior with that filter.

Your link didn't work.

I just tried simulating your issue. It performed as expected for me, separating the plays correctly.

Is it possible you are mistaking the RB for the QB? I've tried this in two separate leagues. The plays are separating as they should be for my teams.

In your screenshot you have selected Singleback Empty 4 and it shows the 1TE/4WR formations. That's what it should be. Could you make another screenshot with Singleback 4 Wide? This should normally show the 1RB/4WR formations...

Thanks for looking into this.

I do have shotgun 4 wide which will show me 1RB/4WR formations. Yay! No single 4 wide selection available.

Crazy, what result are you getting from my link?

Am I reading something wrong? Guy, you say that Single back Empty 4 should be 1 TE / 4 WR. I pictured single back Empty 4 as one RB and four wide receivers.

In your first post you said that you cannot select 1RB/4WR formations. Now you say you can do it with shotgun 4 wide.
And in your screenshot you have selected singleback 4 empty and it shows (in your screenshot) the 1TE/4WR formations.
Now i am a little bit confused because I don't understand your problem anymore.

No worries on tbe link. Guy Debord fixed, so I could see it.


What you are doing is confusing your words.
Singleback Empty means exactly that. Backfield is Empty.

It is easier to sort these type plays by "personell" at the top of the gameplan lists. Sort by 1TE/4WR & 1RB/4WR.
