I build shitty dots so up until the last couple seasons I never even looked at the MVP's. My guys are a bit better now. I look at defensive mvp for my league and ill ignore all the DE's with sacks and just focus on the one CB on the list. He has 8 tackles and thats it. My CB has 3 tackles but he also has 3 ints. How is it that a CB with just 5 more tackles and no ints would be considered a better mvp choice over a CB that has 3 picks?


Maybe Im missing something. I wouldnt put it past me. Call me a dumbass and show me why and I will thank you via pm and send you a hooker.

Last season my returner seemed to get robbed because of a couple hundred yards difference on kick off returns even though he had more TD's. I wish someone could say how this all works 100%.



EDIT: I would be happy to offer a suggestion based off how the mvp calculations are if we knew what they are currently based off of.

Bitching because you aren't the DMVP two games into the season isn't a suggestion, it's stupid, almost as stupid as posting a suggestion thread without an actual suggestion tbh.

It should count against games that don't involve adjusted stats since you can have competitive games against non-playoff teams, while also facing CPU playoff teams that make the playoffs while getting pounded on by the actual teams in the leagues.

that makes sense to however if its only playoff teams then every team is equal in terms of stats (8 games each) cuz not every team is gunna have competitive games the whole season.

No no no. He shouldnt be MVP but he SHOULD be at least above the other cb that was on the list.


I have no mvp players. Would I like to see one, yes, but its not the end of the world.


The calculations need to be fixed or at least explained properly.

Im not a programmer so for me to make a suggestion about doing code on a computer is a bit far fetched.


Its like the punters, their stats are based off of their total yards instead of avg. Yeh a shitty teams punter is going to have a shit ton of yards while a decent teams punter will have normal numbers.



Why is it everytime someone makes a thread about this issue everyone just assumes someone is mad. I dont care about my individual players I want my team to win. With that being said it is a feature in the game and the feature should work better IMHO.

They should make it so the player has better odds of winning if your team makes the playoffs. Its rare to give a player an mvp award on a losing team even though it has happened in real life.

heavy drinking + revolving dartboard + blindfold + dart = mvp winner

sadly this would be more accurate than how it is currently picked. most of us have long ago given up on it ever being fixed because bort thinks a team mvp on a shitty team should be league mvp far too often.

Which is part of the whole signing all cpus and having something like a rushing QB get the ball every play and get mvp but lose every game.


Maybe this could be some of that added documentation we all have been asking for. It shouldnt be a secret just list the players and say what stat is worth what as far as calculations go and then real suggestions about the system can be said.

First this isn't a suggestion, either edit your OP so it has one, or lock this thread.

2nd, you're forgetting it's not just stats, it weighted based off the % of your team.

example, say one HB.A has 1000 yards and 20 td's, and HB.B has 900 yards and 16 td's. But HB.A's team has a total of 3000 yards and 60 TD's and HB'B's team has 2000 yards and 40 TD's. HB.B has a much bigger % of the teams stats and therefor will be higher in the MVP calculations.

how would that work for a defensive player or a returner?

I like your HB example. If thats true then you at least gave us that didnt know some insight. It also shows how the stat padders did it since their players would have pretty much 100% of the team stats anyways.,
