I only have one player under 80 energy, Shirley. The only other offensive player under 90 is the TE at 86. Everyone else is 90+

On defense only two guys are below 86, one at 82 and one at 81.

In my opinion, energy does not deplete enough on GLB, and players don't seem to play much worse even when they are tired.

All the depth we have SHOULD be an advantage if you think about it like real football, but once again, GLB has nothing to do with real life football.

Well I'm not sure what your 4 energy numbers reported have to do with anything. You are stating that like you think those are favorable numbers for your team. But we don't know how energy is reacting in the game. If the other 4 players for LVG are 2% higher, that may not seem on the surface to be a lot, as a person can easily rationalize to themselves "oh, 83 and 80 isn't that big of a difference" and then just close the matter there. But we don't know how these bars are being calculated exactly for the end of game reports and exactly what that 2% difference means.

What if that's 2% more overall talent the other team has and 2% more efficiency? Well if you have 500 total yards of offense and 2% edge as a swing from 1 team to another, that is the equivalent of 10 yards, which is a full first down, what if that 1st down now gives one team 10 possessions instead of 9, so now there is a 10 to 9 possession advantage instead of 9 to 9? Now these are just random made up numbers that mean jack squat, but they are just merely an analogy to show you that small tiny numbers of percentage change could have impacts that result in a difference between a won and a loss.

And if Bort were to give us a very specific set of numbers to show the edge on depth, how do we know that a 2% hypothetical edge isn't even bigger than 2%, what if it is 2.5%, or 3%, or 5%, or 18.6%? The point is, to just say I have good overall energies at the end, isn't nearly the scope of the type of information that one would need to make a highly credible argument that "depth and energy just doesnt matter that much in general".

To almost put this back on track, against MEM, one would have to give the talent edge to them in the Champ game. That said, Hazy has the tools to give them a game


Not going to be a game unless they can slow down Csonka. If Csonka gets 50+ plus carries it's over.

LOL, got laid last night actually. Admittedly first time in a while, but a major hotty. Nice timing with your insult.
