Other ST: for kickoff/punt teams, stay in lane vs. make a play (essentially conservative vs. aggressive coverage)


Some of that was already in there, but nice touch on the additions.

OMG this really really needs to happen.


BTW I never heard the "would give too much away" excuse on why FG replays werent shown. If I had, I would have ripped them a new one.

If I'm kicking 30 yd FG's and missing them because they are too short, I sure as h3ll deserve to know that!

btw, here is an example why i would like for the STs depth chart to be added. http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=424946&pbp_id=11705197 look at the last KRS. that is my starting HB, who finished the game with 18 energy. i rather him have a 25 energy in the 4th quarter, than 18.

With the high number of Ks and Ps that can put the ball in the endzone, how about a player tactic that allows the KR/PR to run it out of the endzone instead of taking the automatic touchback?

Last I remember, we'd been having problems with kickoffs being too short.

Good idea, guy above me.

I really like the idea, more indepth then I was looking for, but nice. Would be good to start with a simpler Depth Chart and over a couple seasons add the Special Teams AI and Formations as well.

KR/PRs should have the option to run balls out of the end zone via tactics:

-safe (always take a touch back)
-medium (run the ball out if you have good blocking in front otherwise take the touch back)
-aggressive (always run the ball out of the end zone)

Confidence and vision would be the primary factors that would come into play when choosing the "medium" setting.

The secondary on defensive should also have these options for when they intercept a ball in the end zone. No one wants to be starting a drive from the 3 yard line when they could have had a safe 20 yards.

Some of this is way overdue. Lets at least get the Depth Chart and maybe an option for Return Right or Left, pretty please.

Season 9 please.

We are going to get custom LB slots, but still no special teams slots.

This is a very popular idea, but people get tired of commenting on it. People have been asking for different depth charts for punts and kicks for 6 season. I bet there has been 50 threads about it since the game started. And most of the threads would have someone say "it has been suggested before"

Come on Bort. Simple change to have 4 special teams depth charts and not just 2.

Yeah, who cares about a LB slots? A good defense can stop the enemy, but you have no chance to set a special team AI and go for return touchdowns.
