5 yard cushion while facing them. While also the WR has an advantage of knowing what route his is on etc. with the speed difference that's your 5 yard cushion gone if that was the NFL in less than a second.

All I'm saying is it needs tweaking but for easier context put a 4.4 WR against a 5.0 CB. Are you going to tell me over 2-30 straight yards even with a 5 yard cushion. He doesn't get burnt a lot of the time?

I think you are taking the "combine numbers" a little too literally. They don't nearly tell the story about what is going on in the sim. Not only that but if they were literal there would definitely need to be some sort of bump and run type maneuvers or the entire dynamic would be sprinting/quickness/conditioning compared to sprinting/quickness/conditioning/footwork and if you got faked its over.

I'm just using them as an easy exaggerated example to get my point across.

I agree tweaks are needed, but also the fact that CBs have ignored sprinting for so long because they didn't need it was stupid too.

At a load of teams LBers have faster sprinting than the CBs and that shouldn't be the case. A 40 sprint speed guy should get burnt a whole lot by a 80 sprint guy.

Speak for yourself. The CB's on Lost Lounge are 5.58, 5.47, 5,42, 5.32, and 4.99 which are excellent for the start of seasoned compared to most others.

BTW, this is what happens when you look at your league like I did last season and realize you're prolly going to be playing Air Raid for the championship....

Yep they are good compared to most others which is kind of my point. So many people have ignored it and shouldn't have got away with it.

Ya know the worst part of that.

In the not-as-strong-as-Oberon Venus league that Lost Lounge is now in, there are 32 WR's with 5.3 or faster 40 times. So it's not like I can stop worrying about speed and start focusing on all the other fun stuff DB's need

Yep I wanted to work on some Int stuff this year, but physicals it will be!

Looks pretty good after most recent changes, I think.

TWO interceptions...in the same game.

WTF

Looks better I agree

Nice work corndizzle.

Little bit of concern about the percentage completion rate dropping, but I suspect that's a result of people continuing to run offenses that don't account for the fact that DB's at least have a hope of coverage on hook routes now. I'm sure everyone'll adjust to the new meta.

Haven't changed anything since yesterday, with Corndog's changes late yesterday and the further tweak last night:

I'd say we're in a good spot now. That outcome is much closer to what it probably should look like. Time to go work on putting together a playbook now. Nice job Corndog!

Check out the game I had with Ministry of Dotball yesterday, 4 INTs. Ran 2 scrims this morning vs Air Raid and SF, I'll be able to watch them this evening to check out the coverage.
