bort and catch......what are your favorite dot positions? i used to love offensive linemen, but i think they've taken too many headbutts and are no fun any more. LB seems to be where its at now

In effect all the time.


Part two of the question: if Aura is in effect the entire time the defender is following a receiver in man coverage, is it a static penalty in effect the entire play or is morale continually draining away from the receiver as long as the CB is near the WR?

I like speed DE's and blocking TE's and have started to like rushing FB's of late.

Continual drain

Average per return doesn't seem to be factored in, at least not much.

but number of returns does, which leads to KRs on shitty teams winning the award, even with a terrible average.

IMO, number of kick returns being in the calculation, just causes a ton of problems.


Actually, you lose points per return and gain points for yards, essentially giving more points for more high average returns. If you have a bunch of lousy returns, you'll get negative points.


In season 12, my WR lost to a guy that only had 1 KR all season for a TD, with a ton of returns. His average was also really low. He just had a ton of yards, because he was the only human on a CPU team, so the team ended up receiving a lot of kickoffs.

But in that same season, my WR led the conf in Kick Return avg, most Punt Return TDs, most Punt Return Yards and 2nd most kick return TDs.

Obviously, it isn't a big deal now, but I'm just trying to make a point. The guy that ended up winning, only had a 1 or 2 returns for TDs all year, with a much lower average on both fronts.

The only stat he was ahead in, compared to my WR, was kick return attempts and yardage. Everything else was a landslide in my WRs favor.

Like I said, I can't be sure why that happened, but something is def off with the ranking system, for this to happen. The only conclusion I could come up with, was that KR Yardage and/or Attempts had way too much bearing on the formula.

We haven't discussed it in depth. We just did for about a minute (I'm in Bort's basement).

To Bort and Catch: So are you two currently sitting together discussing our questions as they come in, or do each of you just focus on one type of question?

Just for clarification since it's one of the more frequent FAQ questions as of late.

Does +% fake AEQ help the Catch Fake SA?

What's the purpose of the sliders on a dot's page ? To simplify , why are they even there if the coordinators can set distances and the like ? Was the intent to allow an agent to use them ?

Hope this makes sense.

Power rushing FBs are cool, they just take a long time to start working well.

Nah, I set it a month ago. Just random luck as for start time coinciding with the Masters ending.
