lol, you just posted a preseason game, after that game I slapped on slow starter to about 35 dots and its further proof how adapting to the sim makes or breaks people, thats why you are good, you make a good defense and just win the games you should, the champs actually go out and adapt and win when it counts

Winning twice with 1 team is light years more impressive. The least impressive run I ever had when I oc'd/dcd two of the 4 teams into a conference title game and lost the wl title game, the fact was it was twice as easy as I had two test subjects going the entire season (much like you have 4 this season) doing it with 1 and actually dominating is brutal and its why you were never able to do anything with the garudas despite having a top 5 eff level team and many of tauts dots


apparently you missed my previous post my defense was solid in season 24 we had no O. I am also sure you game planned. Not much of that going on in the past few seasons. Also, i have not ever been associated with non fair play. So, you got me on that one.

okay, now we are back talking about game mechanics not real football. To my point it is only more effective to play a vanilla defense if you don't feel like game planning. You can't cover both the pitch and deep pass at the same time unless you leave the middle wide open, but that comes back to scouting and game planning.

We just completely disagree on this one

Because you're wrong. You're saying things that are completely untrue. Even if you gameplan and scout, you're still foolish to take risks and try to guess which plays are going to be run except in certain situations (as noted, 3rd/4th downs). Ever since they expanded the playbook, it's been a bad idea to guess on defense because you're much more likely to be wrong, and being wrong exposes you to more yardage.

Yes, that was a very offensive sim and you shut teams down in season 24 playoffs. good thing the sim is in the defenses favor now. The garudas D that season was awful.

What is scouting for if not determining the plays run so you can address them specifically?

I could see a lot of bored vets settling in to mentor roles for a lot of the new users and being re-energized. This game would look and feel completely different imo.

For those folks who don't know....

1)ghuffman is one of the best DCs in the game and has a nice collection of WL gifs to prove it.

2) ghuffman is one of the most experienced DCs in the game, running defenses for multiple WL teams for many seasons.

3) ghuffman is one of the most motivated DCs in the game, running tons of scrims to test things out every season.


He's not afraid of greater offensive complexity, and he knows exactly what he's talking about when he describes the benefits to top DCs.

Basically, he makes the rest of us look like lazy focks.



Hands down the greatest I've ever had the privilege of being associated with.
