Holy Cow (excuse the pun)....the game is supposed to be fun...right ? I'm not here that long, but not sure I've ever encountered silly stats like that!!!!!


I have. Same thing happened to me in beta. Twice.

There are a lot easier ways to get me to quit without messing up my teams JDB.

I’m sure it’s an outlier. Either that or extremely poor defense. But there are much worse games out there if you want to see truly unrealistic games. As far as I have seen, this game is as good as it gets. Or it’ll be as close as it gets as no game will ever be perfect.

Completely agree. IF you guys think this is bad you should see how horrible Pigskinempire stats look.

With 0 play knowledge. I find it pretty hilarious.

I'm actually going to stick with him all the way through pre season to see if he completes ONE SINGLE PASS. :)

My QB's play knowledge of the 4 most common pass plays after the first pre-season game:

Slot Crosses 15%
WR Corner 5%
FL Hook 3%
Spread Flats 12%

Next preseason game, I'm only going to throw passes that he has 90+% knowledge of and compare the difference. In game 3, I'll go back to a spread game plan. In game 4, back to full play knowledge book.

Let's see what happens. :)

I'm ripping off the band-aid and scrapping everything to go with the new philosophies. Since I play with some of the Beta guys, it's just a matter of copying them, then tweaking. I'll be behind since I've never run these playbooks, but I don't see the point of waiting.

Am I wrong to scrap the plays my guys had familiarity with to go with the shorter possession/west coast gameplans now? Or am I jumping the gun here by throwing away entire seasons? It feels like a drastic step to take, but it looks like a drastic change in MFN.

...and here's the quandary. How do you differentiate yourself to win if EVERYONE is doing the same thing?

Also, if you scrap and go with the flow (removing years and years worth of impactful plays to start anew) you're way behind the 8-ball on the new plays which work. (play knowledge)

Basically, you have to think of an angle beyond that and in 4.4 shrugs not sure there is one.

Save your gameplans BEFORE you scrap them!!! I can't stress this enough.

Lol, I guess "scrapped" was the wrong phrase. I still have my old game plan. "Starting anew" would've been better. New coaches, new playbooks, new styles.
