Prediction: 25 carries, 600 yards, 8 TD's in a completely irrelevant stat padding outing that'll be complete disregarded by people with brain stems.

Tea Baggins is good, no doubt, but I'd like to introduce you to Duke Nuke'em...

http://www.goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=61109

This season he is #1 by far in Canada AAA #2. We have only played one team that is less than a 51 overall. The following links are only against good competition and doesn't include stat-padding games (which we all know don't matter). These runs aren't against cover zero's, either. And they are all this season, presumably after Bort's nerfing of the broken tackles glitch. The replays don't look impressive because he is not an elusive back, but heck...he can't be contained.

Nothing stops him. Defenders just bounce off, he hardly needs to juke...

Powerbacks are the exploit of the last three seasons. No offense. But thanks to the sim a decent powerback with always average 2ypc more then a good elusive back. So Powerbacks on mass are far more effective. I think Speed and Elusive RB's running for 5ypc are more impressive then a Powerback running for 8ypc. Powerbacks have all the advantages, Elusive and Speed guys are forced to make things happen against the sim.

I agree....especially when the Powerback is only in AAA.

I'll agree to that. Seems like elusives have taken a huge hit in carrying this year. In same league last year my hb had an average of 180+ yds/game while this season hes at 110. Every rushing leader (or most) I see nowadays in the AAAs are power backs.

Agreed. And AAA is a huge step down from Pro.

Not only that but if we look at it from a realistic perspective, most HB's in real life which are succesful are balanced but still lean on the elusive side. And it's not just my league that's getting hit. Since I looked at your HB and based on stats, scouting, etc... both have similar builds. Yet both are hit hugely. IMO power backs should be traditional short yardage back and it should take a very good build to be successful like most are now.

Well said. That seems logical.

Another great game.

Despite the shortcomings of the cobra kai this season Tea is a dominant force.
ill be sure to brag as soon as Winland kills a team full of level 8 guys tomorrow.



Oh, the irony in this statement.

Winland is doing just fine and he is Elusive/Speed back

In a league well below your level. My RB would be dominating the D-Leagues, but it wouldn't be impressive.

Seriously. He needs to define "just fine". If an unimpressive 5.9 YPC as a level 43 running back playing against a horde of shitty teams in Canadian A #7 is "just fine" then I guess he is telling the truth.

Edit: Windbag, if you don't put up 4,000-5,000 yards in that league, I would consider it a failed season.

If you rush for 55 yards in 23 attempts for an average of 2.4 versus a team which is about 6-7 levels lower than you I would not call that a good performance. But thats just me. And in case you bothered looking, both of our HB's match your stats but in a much more elite league with players our level. Even at that considering My HB Tanker's previous seasons I would not call that "fine". Just my two cents.

On a more positive note, my Kicker is doing fine
Well, sort of...
