This may be a stupid question but what is this punt block exploit everyone is talking about. I guess I vulnerable to it because I havent changed anything to prevent it.



I'll believe this when I see it. If I ever get a chance to block a punt against you, it probably won't matter.


Please do....I would love to know if I'm vulnerable to it....I would have to breakdown and load it up on my computer to do the overrides on all my teams and that would really ****.

I tried messing with overrides a while ago and they didnt work on my phone...not sure why. I set my depth chart for special teams with my best blockers so I dont understand why the need for overrides in the first place.

That's why I asked the question

I never bothered with it either,I just try to get good punters, I have blocked a few punts without
setting anything up and have had some blocked on me!

I dont care about being able to poke holes in the sim to block the punts, I just want to know how to defend it if at all possible. It's unrealistic to block multiple punts in multiple games so I dont really get how it can be defended as a viable strategy in a game that should be fun. Last season in the HOL, I had two punts blocked in the championship game but still came away with a win. I was a little irritated at the second one and I woulda felt a little screwed if I had lost due to that.

And I know people in the opposite win at all cost camp will be able to make some kind of argument, but for me personally, I dont devote enough time to this game to figure out loopholes of subbing this guy on this particular formation to beat a particular play. Do I deserve to be screwed over when the rest of my gameplan and/or roster is better than the other teams in that particular game?

I have an opinion about this, but I'm making a new place for it. The thread will be called, "Punt Block Controversy."

I'm going to need about 5 cups of coffee to figure this one out. Good thing time freezes on Sundays in MFN Land. LOL

I guess a positive slant is I have play makers on the threshold of entering the Hall of Fame as they age out.
