After running a play using rb2, the next play should go back to original depthchart IMMEDIATELY if the rb selection is on "rb" and not rb"number", correct?

Its based on energy settings, not alternating plays.

That makes no sense. What's the point of having the other slots?

Granted it puts in the guy you want for that one play, but why would you use this? There's too much of a chance the guy you want back in after the play won't go in?

Let's use a CB v CB1/CB2 example.

If I stacked all my CB's into the CB field and the O Set is Single Back [3-wide], the 3 "freshest" CB's that meet the energy settings requirement take the field. The one with the highest energy is CB1, next is CB2 and third is CB3. Now, the player covering the WR1 may be your 5th best CB. If all your CB's are quality, this point is moot.

If I enter my 2 best CB's into CB1, my 2nd and 3rd best CB's into CB2, etc, the worst match-ups I get is WR1/CB2, WR2/CB3, etc. While CB2 may be a bit tired, he is probably a better fit than your 5th best CB for the play.

If you really want to alternate players every play, set the energy to 98/99. I think its what the D Leagues do and it guarantees one running back the odd-numbered plays, the other even.

Outside of that, I am not sure what your "end game is, i.e. what are you trying to have happen?

If I want a specific RB for a HB pass output that is not my "starter" as the guy in the RB2 spot has a higher catching, after that HB pass runs, I want the starter to go back in that next play, not hang around i the HB spot for a few more plays.

If I only have the receiving HB in the RB2 spot, nobody in RB1, and my normal lineup in RB (Original DC), the setting for the plays that don't put the catching HB in set to RB, than the SIM should put the starter in on the next play?

DC
RB-HB1
HB2
HB3

RB1-empty

RB2-HB2

1st down
HB pass runs and puts in the RB2

2nd down
Inside run... SHOULD be the HB1 if RB in the output is set to "RB"

sound right?

If you're running rb1/2, then have a play using rb, if you set your energy settings for people to sit till 99 energy, it should usually be using the guy who isnt rb1/2

you mean return energy of 99 on rb?

yeah like i set mine to 80/99, so when we run a lot using rb1 and 2, i dont specify a number on passing plays or some run situations, so it goes to the 3rd hb usually

That just doesn't make sense to me. I thought that the RB, RB1 and RB2 slots were 3 independant roster slots.

This is basically saying that if you use RB2.. then the SIM is going to ignore the RB slot and only use RB1 and RB2. I would think that if you left RB1 blank then when the play with RB2 was done and the next output said "RB" it would go back to that old depth chart slot.

100% correct.

Its either/or.

OK, thanks for the info but that makes me ask another question.

Everyone using the wildcat play says that the QB goes back in as the QB after the wildcat play after being in the TE2 slot. Why does the HB get subbed out and the TE go back into the TE position?
