Ya my regular 4 WR defense probably not good for against those guys. I forget HAHA is an all spread team.

Pretty surprised about BEEF's dominance over that Miami Sharktapus team too. Those guys have done well against run teams.

One of the huge downsides of being in Seasoned is we don't get these in-tier matchups...

HAHA
Salty
PORN
EEA
No Name

really need to all play each other. I'd add Bloody but they got matchups with Salty and EEA already.

No Name has literally played one Seasoned team in ladder so far - and that was against the bottom of the barrel in terms of teams (first ladder game of the season). Outside of the WotW/Marvel/Miami/AK ladder games, it has not been particularly fun or exciting. At least today we get a pretty good team in Sunderland in a matchup that could go either way.

Interesting win. 155 yards leading to 19 points is pretty insane. But still - great job.

This Seasoned tier is ridiculously good.

Pretty shocked PORN beat Hawaii, especially in pretty dominating fashion.

That's a good point and it's something we have clamored for in the past, but there were always detractors.

The thing everyone keeps pointing to is global ladder being worthless if we don't play out of tier, but that point is moot now with rankings getting reset each season. There is no bonus for Porn if we finish the season at #1 and 20 spots ahead of everyone else, because we all start the same next season. The only thing that matters is tier trophies when it comes to ladder and those trophies should be decided by the top teams playing each other at least once.

Does that mean seasoned teams should never play journeyman? Absolutely not, but there should be some type of preference for same tier matchups when the ladder schedule is created.

Excellent! Although your linebackers have enough blitz awareness and speed that outside pitches weren't working all that well against your Over Will.

GG, you guys are making me re-invest in Rec Grip. I recently added 10 to Grip and felt pretty good about it, Knocked Loose totals were way down since that increase, but...

The difference between completion rates of 55.8% and 67.4% were your KL. Time to add more.

This is why I suggested many times to have a 8 or 16 team, single elimination tournament towards the end of the season, using that last 4 games of the ladder.

You do that and you kind of negate all the previous ladder games to that point.

I like my past suggestion better.

In the last 2/3/4 Ladder games of the season, priority is given to the highest ranked team in tier you haven't played. It doesn't create a tournament. It just schedules missing opponents in tier.

No you don't. The first X number of ladder games in the season would be used for seeding and/or making the tournament.
