My team is getting a ton of them. What leads to these penalties? I try not to call the same play too often in any given game.

Thanks

You mean false start/offsides penalties ?

Not much u can do really, it's just part of low level dot experience

Was a discussion in this forum on that subject not to long ago, and seemed the consensus was that you could try to raise Vision but it would hinder the rest of your build and not worth the investment

ah .. yeah, its hard to raise vision on the oline with strength/blocking/agility being so important .. But I had TEN penalties in my last scrimmage ... hard to build a drive that way.

It has always been like this.

It isn't much of a problem for people in Prep+, so if it is vision, it isn't a huge investment in vision that is required. Also it may be an effect of energy and morale, so some increase in stamina/confidence/salary for your oline might help.

IRL a false start (jumping before the snap, not the time count violation) is often caused by being overmatched by a defender. I don't know if this is considered in GLB, but it might be why some teams in PW have more problems than others (in which case strength/agility/blocking increases may help and may explain why there is such a significant decrease in false starts in higher levels even before stamina/vision/confidence are trained).

You can't neglect vision. Some say confidence, but that is debatable.

It's been going on for so long nobody usually complains anymore. And, should you try to get around it by putting SP's into vision or confidence, you'll soon find your dots unable to compete against those that do not. If you build really awesome dots, you can use your EQ to slip a point or two into vision... more than that and you're giving away too much on the line.

I still complain. Only that the official tourney starts before you even have time to build vision up high enough. Down 7 in the forth quarter last season I got 3 FS in two drives. They need to tone them down at least until day 6 or 7.

I really really hate false starts so I take my vision to the mid 30s.
