I accidently saw the score on the game I am watching and omgosh am I glad of that.

Its 17-6 with 9 to go in the 3rd. Reasonably close game, he got 7 points from a KR TD and 3 more from a fumble recovery and his first 7 from my going for it on 4th and one and he managing to stuff it.

But generally my DAI adjustments for him are working really well, and my offensive adjustments are mostly working as well (but for one outside run that I fully see how it could cost me the game)

But what I can not see is how this close competitive game is about to turn into a 60 point route.

Yes I see I am a minute away from a 70 yard TD bomb and then another Return TD.

So 31 to 6, okay. That sucks but its real.

Even ringing up 45 okay.

But to score 60 points in a quarter and a half in what was clearly a relatively competitive game is dumb. And it ruins the game. It makes the game unwatchable and it sends people out the door never to return.

Whatever it is in the game mechanics that lets this happen needs to be changed.

I have suggested that the Offense morale be toned down in a route to match the reality that teams stop trying when they are up big. No one wants to get hurt or try harder than is needed.

I have also suggested something be done about the idiotic morale spiral.

One of those things NEEDs to be done.

How many more agents do you have to lose before you listen?

Odds are, when you got far enough behind you started passing, correct? If so, that's a mistake. Harder to pass in a spiral. So run it and if your D is solid, you reverse the spiral.

once you lose by more than 24, does it really matter?

This. Once your morale goes down, stamina and confidence will get you back into game, if you can put together a drive or three and stop them defensively. A lot of times, it gets out of hand because the OAI starts to go for it on fourth down too early and therefore you're giving them easy field position.
