Good game Montana. Managed to make both our offense AND defense look bad - sorry I couldn't put up much of a fight.

GG Philly. That being said. I'm highly disappointed with this team so far. Everything seems too shaky. Doing everything the same as last year with mostly the same team yet I rarely felt I was out of a game last year and even gave a couple mighty teams a scare though I don't think they'd admit it. Had a lousy kicker was all. This year so far is just the opposite I've never felt like I was in the game and couldn't wait for the game to be over with. Perhaps the three teams I played have improved a lot as well but ....,......


What I see???

☆No speed at RB means no chunk runs of 20+ yards or house calls

☆highest target receiver is a 50 speed TE which means same as above

☆combination of both above means you need long sustained drives and that's super hard to be consistent at in this game.
can't help my roster right now. Last year (my first in the league) I had 47 guys and less than a million dollar cap space and almost as tight this year. I have speedy wide receivers and a hall of fame qb. I'm more surprised with my problems on defense. By the way rewatch your last regular season game from last year and.............


Week 16 last season was a meaningless game since win or lose I was locked in at the #2 seed! My RB4 started and my best WR sat plus my entire backup squad started on the OL and defense.....and I still beat you by 10!

That's not a ringing endorsement of your team!

I get cap issues but you are targeting the TE too much so playcalling is limiting you passes to the WRs and making that QB look average plus passes to the RB are a key in this version so the lack of speed hurts their too! The QB will check down to the back and you need...at minimum 80-85 speed at RB.

Trying to help!

Speed is the single most important attribute and you have 1 90 speed and just 3 80 speed players on the entire roster.

Your 17 year QB is great except he is a statue with 17 speed so he is only good for quick passes.
I can take constructive criticism but the way you come at me seems like you're attacking me. I do believe you're trying to be helpful but I'm 63 years old and far from stupid so yeah it bothers me some. I'm right about some things in our conversations and you're wrong about some. If you can't see that please keep your comments to yourself. I'm trying to say this as nicely as I can and mean you no harm and trying not to be an asshole but anyone with any self respect won't stand for being talked down to. By the way you do run a nice league, so it's understandable for you to consider IT your baby but the other owners aren't (your baby I mean) :) Good luck the rest of the season.

MoonPygg.....

Sorry you feel that way....trying to help since you questioned why you felt like you weren't competitive this season.

Please disregard what I said then...didn't mean to offend you in anyway. I'm not the best at this game but in 18 seasons in the XFL....I've had 18 playoff appearances and my total offense has ranked #1 overall 13 of those 18 seasons.

Sharing my knowledge is a lot better than keeping my mouth shut but I get it. I won't offer any unsolicited info anymore.

Sorry,

CJ
