Bort made strength more important. Since you're only throwing 20-25 times, I'm assuming you're run heavy and your receivers have to block a lot more often. That takes energy. With the increased strength role, maybe they're getting pancaked more often, which consumes even more energy.

that's a pretty good theory and I appreciate the input. I'll invest a few points on my lower level WR and see how much difference it makes on energy. Whatever the cause there is certainly a noticeable drop off this season in completion % across the board. Vision and catching are already 60 capped and higher on all of our 40+ WRs so I don't think the decline is necessarily generated from the WR position, unless the extra energy consumption has something to do with. Even so, it's not a gradual decline over the course of the game like you would think in that case. It's from start to finish so I have my doubts.

QB vision is 70+, with over 115 in throwing so I know it's not an accuracy issue either. More than likely the difference is going to be in secondary improvements due to the new changes, and the only thing that can compensate is to continue to dump max points into vision and catching to hit the 68 caps......which is easier said than done at these levels because you have to pick one or the other since there are only going to be limited SP from level ups during the season.

edit: 20-25 times is our normal average but my US AAA team has had to pass more due to playing from behind so the stats have been skewed even more there. my Canadian team is still on the same pace at 20-25 passes per game and the completion % is only slightly higher. Both are down 10-15% so far

There's one thing I have noticed that stands out above everything else after our first regular season game. WR energy levels at the end of the game were extremely low on my team. All 5 guys were under 55 by the end of the game and every single one of them is 40+ in stamina (we only throw 20-25 times per game). I'm not sure how their energy is factoring in yet this season but they were by far the lowest group on our team for end-game energy levels. I have a feeling that may be factoring in to the sporadic pass game some how but it's not the total story.

Pass completions are down 10-15% or higher on average in each of the leagues I'm in. My highest level QB has well over 100 throwing, 70 vision, 60+ confidence, 65+ in strength, and very high tight spiral, yet his completion % is down nearly 20% this season so far. I've also noticed that routes that have been extremely reliable in the past aren't so much any more.







You've got 3 WRs playing ST's. Take them off the KRS and your problem will be solved.

somebody say something about there NOT being a problem?

Yeah, I said you were being a baby in regards to your post where you said there were MAJOR problems and you'd have to spend HOURS fixing everything that Bort broke. Now your PM'ing me with the above link. Get some class baby. The fact is minor changes happen every year, if you have played this game for 2 seasons you should know there is a pattern.

My AA team just knocked off the best team in our league who hasn't lost in 25+ games, we had a 72% completion rate going against CBs who were 10-15 levels higher than our WRs. Nothing magical, it is just called good game planning and knowing how to use your receivers/QB. Maybe you should stop jacking up the deep ball every play?

The AAA team I GM for is at 66% or higher completion rates, the QB is having his best year ever by at least 8% completion rating.

The A team I'm on is at 76% pass completion.

The game is fine, learn 2 play, learn 2 WR.

So again, what seems to be the problem?
