Is it fair to say yet that 4.6 has been solved? Passing seems up year to year, though still not as much as in 4.5. I feel like owners are catching onto the new “balance”.

Sucks long passes don’t really work well and I would like to see that reworked, but otherwise has anyone else got the impression things have balanced year to year?

I think it has. Really just want to hand everyone a big gold star for finding new ways etc.


I think you’re right but a lot of it is increasing familiarity among mid-tier owners like myself. For the elites and analytics nerds it didn’t take long to figure out.

Gary Fielding doing my favorite thing my QB's do, throw interceptions outside our red zone

Disconcerting.

I had a game against Ai with the CB #1 and # having 25 and 32 speed, respectively. I tried with all my heart, in every way imaginable and it would not let me hit the over the top vertical pass. I stayed within my plays and didn't attempt long pass streaks because I like winning, but those 2 dorks shadowed my WRs. Played way off and it looked like the game would halt my WRs mid-streak route to not run. I'm not an iso guy and look deep like Ray but I'd gather the engine protects them in every way imaginable.

I nearly quit after the game because I went all out to get what I wanted.

I know interceptions are part of the game and your QB will throw them, and I know I'm really salty about the USFL title game loss, but holy **** does it feel like every QB in all my leagues throw their ints right outside my red zone for a nice short field touchdown for whoever I'm playing

I'll go take another look at it but he gets every call and roll his way.

The 113 INT...you should have clowned that and he gets to have it both ways on that crummy Dime call. INT against you. I clown it and he wins. smh

Addendum: I saw this earlier. You went at the crummy call, too yet he flicks it right off - no problem. Horrible call and I'm teflon. :(

(then it f**king saves him by going to an auto run key)

Well he isn't invincible since I beat him 37-14 in the Quick and the Dead Conference Championship game.

The Sim is what the Sim is!!!

Get the rolls and win or you don't and lose!

I saw it and knew you'd chime in with that.

1 game.

If a massive hole is left opened, it should get mauled to an L.

Mine are either on the first play of the drive or at the end of a 75 yard drive

In TPM I had a stretch where I threw a pick on my first pass of the game, 3 games in a row
