What have we got in our pocketses?

Hydrogen:
Djibouti Assassins vs Run GLB - could be a great game! DA defense still low on chemistry (which is a needed boon for the Run GLB offense). If I recall, Run does a pretty good job against the pass as well. This one is must see TV.


Monroe:
Minnesota Balanced Raid vs Houston Gamblers - two new kids on the block square off - 3-1 vs 3-1


Orion:
Games already simmed (I always forget they go off so early).
Queen City wins by 13 over Wesley Chapel Warriors
Tampa Sandmen beats Battle Creek by 24
TT beats the Long Island Knights by 10 (moving TT to a quiet 5-0 record)
DD destroys Air Raid 57-17 - Air Raids lowest point total since they only put 14 up on the Robot Lords on 9/27 in season 6. Also at 1-4; Air Raid still ranked #3 in ladder...K value changes weren't too significant it seems.

100% screens. guess air raid is out of cares. doesn't matter now if it is a running or passing - they can't stop anyone...and they are struggling to score

you mean you can't just plug in Cover 3 Tiger every single play and win?

uhm no...it was a try, not more. I didnt even complain so calm down you baby

I didnt expect it to lead to great success. but it was taken apart on every aspect. No pressure, too much open field, etc... We do not have a blitzer LB tho. Still lots of open space for easy catches...

And if run every play or not...the effectiveness (which I talk about) is not linked to the quantity of plays. For a review, a bigger sample size is actually better. Whatever it was, it didnt work for us

It's definitely not a DAG type play where it'll win the game for you. That's the reason I was so adamant during the offseason defending it before people even tried it.

I tried out a screen spam offense today just to see what some of the plays look like against a competitive defense without run blocking builds. It obviously was atrocious.

I'll roll out our real offense in the rematch later this season.

well now i am a little surprised MMA didnt move ahead of air raid. losing to a team MMA just beat and they keep the #3 spot? seems this K value change didnt really do much

Without knowing the actual values its really hard to say how much difference the K value change made. There was likely a very large gap between #3 and #4 that will take some time to navigate.

I wish we could see the actual difference between ranks, even if it was obfuscated again and just some indicator how far apart teams were (rather than giving the exact ELO difference out)

If we beat Air Raid and the Stuuners beat some random #40 ladder team, Hburg definitely gains ground even though both teams win. It's just impossible to keep track of that stuff to any realistic degree without help from the system.

People have been calling for posting of ELO scores or at the very least some type of indication where teams stand besides just a numerical tiered system. Of course it won't happen after 10 seasons but the reasoning behind not posting the scores from what I remember was asinine.

+1. Been asked for since season 1. There's never been a good reason given for why not.
