Good game Ray/Owls, TOs were big, as they usually are.
30 off, 21 def. 3 def plays 9/6/6, goal is 5 or less.
Am thinking about a mandatory set up for next season, which will make it much easier for gameplanning. At least one play from each personnel and defense, with a full 40/30 active.
We would all use same Offense gameplan & personnel, all same amount/even other than GL, which would be set to 1.
Defense settings would all be even for secondary and linebackers.
The only thing that can result in play overuse would be due to a rule, or Ai coach tendency. The only two play call problems by Ai play selection is overuse of the GL offense and the Nickel being automatically called vs the 1-1-3wr and the 2-3wr sets.
This idea would significantly increase the
challenge of competing using a more diverse and varied play selection. Defenses would be more vulnerable, the long pass would be more usable. It would be difficult to get everyone on the same page with the same settings, but, if you are not using the same settings, it will show up in the game results and when you get scouted. Let me know your thoughts, I would like to give it a shot and go to a higher level of diversity and the challenge of selecting plays that do the least amount of damage on defense. Max use of a single play would be 5 times in a game.
The reason I bring this up, is that Im not seeing much, if any, use of 3 & 4 Deep Zone and Man defenses. I'm not a fan of them, especially 3 man rushes (hate that in RL), but they are used in RL and the challenge would be to use them at least once and not have them lose you a game, lol. Offense plays that dont work well will not hurt you as much as bad defensive plays, but that would be the overall challenge with an equal playing field.
