Good game Keys, did you grease the game ball? my RB's couldn't hold onto it all day long.

Mmm, it's a delicate balance on how to 'get off the pass'/make it click and dominate. I can eliminate that no matter what you do on offense banging around a defense with # of plays, beat downs you can't batter a D into submission where a conga line of FL Hitches hit off on parade.

The set up wants you to play to parity/be diminished in play knowledge by rocking 40 offensive plays and an array of passing but that's to have you merge into traffic....Jobberville with the rest and not stand out.

Go-to plays are done.

It's a balance of pounding play knowledge and a tight array of passing while avoiding the sack traps.

I'll get there. With each new season set-up I'll dig deep to push past the sim barrier.

In my early years I played to a pinned 40 plays during v4.2......

You exposed us bad. 200 yds rushing in the 1st half

Whoa, crazy ending in a 6-3 nailbiter. Two 4th quarter interceptions allowed Loch Ness back into the game and with 5 seconds left, 1st and goal at the 8 they used their first timeout. I was 100% sure the kicker was going to come on and send us to OT. Instead they went for it all and came up short.


Good game Loch Ness, a key game in deciding the division this season. Still three horses in the race with two weeks remaining.

I'm calmer now but I think we can agree this is the exact problem with 1 bye. I couldn't have further proven that Game #1 was a nerf and now after 20 hard fought games working hard I don't get a bye.

Nov 30 @ Freedom Monarx (24-2)

*narrows eyes, shakes head* non-nerf clowning.

Great game, Mcarovil/Derweze!

Your QB played a great game, despite the pressure we brought.

I'm surprised by your record, but it's a tough league.

I don't disagree, but that's the way the NFL has gone - personally, I'd rather it was 8. Home field alone should be a big enough advantage.

On the other hand it does force teams to play hard until week 16 and generally keeps more teams involved in chasing down a playoff spot and thus keeping a League competitive.
