Alright y’all let’s be considerate of CJ’s health here. He’s already requested this stuff be moved to PMs.

GG CJ. Put on a masterclass as usual, and my lack of 4th down rules cost me.

Did you use the dreaded 1 play defense again? haven't had time to look at the game log...If so, it looks like it worked for a half before I broke through.

Not that it bothers me if you did....If I can't beat a 1 play defense then I should probably quit. I don't change my offense regardless of opponent....I run the same offense versus everyone and it either works or it doesn't. In fact, the only changes I really make are activating/deactivating defensive rules based on opponent....and that's only when I've feeling extra salty!

BTW....The above is true for regular season only....I usually try a little harder in the postseason

CJ is going to try a little harder like Orange Cassidy. :)

The Flat Zone, initially, would stymie us all, however, over time you learn how to get it + the opposing GM gets sloppy using it vs. sets that they shouldn't. I can work over the Flat Zone.

The problem is I've have had a season long injury bonfire stockpile in MFN-23 from the game where I got hit up with the -%123 negative play familiarity in a 100 injury rate league.

That sucks to play out.

I went at it hard in the past because 4343 was getting near and/or accumulating too many titles purely using setherick concepts in a 2-play defense.

My goal was to shame him and shut 'em down like Public Enemy. :)

In this league, yes. I don't intend for it to be permanent, since it really won't win me a championship in this league. I'm just more surprised my defense held you up as long as we did with how terrible my linebackers/secondary are. Eventually when I land on my new defensive gameplan I'll probably do that instead, it's just in the works (in PFL) and I'll need to gradually get it to the point where I am succeeding with it against folks like yourself/Smirt/AG in the test phase.

I'm not there yet. I've been succeeding with a gameplan that has no Flat Zone at all in another league through six games (IPFL) but that needs more testing itself as well.

Smirt just casually throwing out AEW references.

Good game slick, surprised we won by so much. I'm sure it will a lot closer next time. Good luck until then.

Thankfully there is not five quarters to every buck. My team looked sluggish at the end.
