Penalities and Defensive Schemes..

[Chilly]

I agree King, but how do you rate Offensive Linemen? What stats are you using? and in the game, how do you tell if your offensive linemen are doing well or not? Nothing in the Play by Play or Box Score can single out if your lineman is doing well or getting beat on every snap.

Yeah that's the downside of it. We're working with a lot less since we don't have detailed defensive stats. Sacks should tell you where the pressure is coming from but that's only if you know where they lined up. They mentioned they'll have more details on the next version they roll out but that's going to take a minute.

I can't decipher inviduals but a team where my OL is weak, the running backs (esp. the starter) only plods for 3.2 yards a carry after four games, and the team gives up a number of sacks compared to my other team. Lots of stuff goes into it but when the base is weak, the team is weak and it happens every week.

Yeah, I had a team last year that lost all of its starting and backup tackles for about 3-4 week period and it was gruesome. I recommend that no one else ever do this.
