You guys have a good team. Losing 3 games in the 4thQ would drive me crazy.

We are at a loss man... 3 freaking 4th quarter tough losses and here we sit at 0-4

I still think youll turn it around. Your Depth is killing you. By the 4th Q your players are tired. Id at least get a few CPU on the team.

Depth has always been a problem for us. Recruiting is always tough, especially since most FAs don't want to come in as backups. The same dilemma as most teams deal with each season: start a new guy to get him on the team or stick with the players that have been loyal to the team.

Nice trick... someone need to teach me how to continue running out of bounds like that.

we lost a championship game last year on something like this...the guy runs 51 yards with 14 seconds left in the game and goes out of bounds in the process yet he still scores to beat us...

about as cheap as running the same play the entire game to win a championship...

It's not BS. Ask teams that are winning if they have as much trouble recruiting as teams that are going 8-8 or lower. I have personal experience with it. When I went 14-2 in A I had players PMing me to join the team, even without attempting to recruit for their position. Last season our record was nowhere near as good (despite our previous successes) and I was told by crappy players that they wouldn't sign. And by crappy players, I mean players I wouldn't normally even touch with a 20,000 foot pole. I think I signed 1 FA I didn't have communications with previous to the FA period.

So let's compare. Having excess FAs wanting to join you, to 1. I think winning makes a HUGE difference.

No it's bullshit. WE have had winning seasons damn near every season. Signing FAs that want to be backups is still tough. Having a network of teams and players makes it easier, sure. I'm an addict too, but winning doesn't make it that much easier. "Ask teams that are winning" eh? We're in the playoffs every year. It's still tough.

or maybe you mean "win championships"
because
we haven't sniffed one of those in about 4 seasons.

if that is the case then maybe you are right.

Seems we get into the playoffs and just start coughing the ball up left and right.

Goal 1: Make the playoffs
Goal 2: MAKE IT OUT OF THE FIRST FREAKEN ROUND

These GLB dots are funny things, no?

Guess it also depends on how you recruit too. I didn't make it far in the playoffs either. Championships definitely help more than winning.

I'm guessing you haven't seen how bad recruiting can be if your complaining about recruiting with winning. I have, quite literally sent out well over 1000 offers, with one acceptance. When we were winning, it was more like 3-5 recruits every 500 or so offers. It's always tough, but when you win it makes it slightly easier. Unless your dominant in the Pro leagues you will not see "acceptable" recruiting numbers.
