Times called: offensive plays

I'm assuming this represents the number of times the play has been called during the season. If this is true then it seems it is also including preseason games in this. It would be nice to either not include these during the regular season or have a toggle to make it only include regular season games.

that's correct - and a good idea, I'll put it in the list.

I've noticed that if you look at the play on the main screen and then click the play and look at the times run on the individual plays pop-up screen, the numbers are different sometimes. What is going on there?

Also, on the plays pop-up screen, you can see the breakdown of times used/average per down. It would be nice to be able to have a way to view all the plays used/avg per down as well. Only way to do this now is to click each play and write the info down or try to remember it.

The popup is only looking at regular season. The scouting used preseason just to help you give something to scout when a league is brand new, once the first pre-season game has been played.

I like your other ideas, btw, just hadn't gotten around to responding.

It'll also be different, of course, if you're scouting, because you're looking at your opponent's numbers there.

Thanks man, I knew it had just slipped your mind to respond since you are so quick and thorough answering all the questions that pop up around here. Hope you didn't take offense to my smart *** reminder. I was coming back to this area of gameplanning again and wanted an answer. Thanks again!

Not at all :-)

So, just to make sure I'm understanding this correctly......

The popup stats are only the stats for the regular season? And, the times used/avg that shows on the screen that shows all the plays, with the little check boxes in them, is only last season and current season pre-season games? What confuses me is that a play will show something like 5 times used for X average, but when I click on the play, the popup box will say something like 11 times used and a different average.

Let me make sure we're both looking at the same thing - are you on the gameplanning offensive and defensive plays? Those should show more times used on the main page than they do on the popup page. If you click it from the scouting list, the numbers won't match because the scouting page shows your opponent's usage, but the popup shows your own.
