Not really needed IMO. Beyond the scope of one single play qb running is not a huge deal.

I'm not trying to stop good teams who run well designed offenses.

I'm trying to keep people from spamming plays in hopes of getting lucky.

Even 10 points total morale loss on things like Jampy brought up isn't going to stop an OC from calling the play. In fact, I'd suspect, but haven't tested, that the morale gain from getting a first down would totally offset those losses.

But if you run QB Rollout a few times for TFL, it's going to keep getting harder and harder to finally break one. Since most QB runs are pretty high risk/high reward types, it'll mean making some pretty careful decisions on just how much you want to put your QB's at risk.

Yes rg3 and Vick those tough qbs who barely get injured. That's worked out well for Washington so far....

Manziel we shall see when he hits nfl see how much he is reigned back when they are trying to protect their money.



That's not the point. Stopping QBs from running is organizations protecting their investment for a slight penalty to the player performance.

It's selfish if you truly understand it.

The QBs don't call the plays. Why are you penalizing them? I'd rather administer electric shock to all OCs who choose to spam QB runs instead of a morale penalty to the QB... And to start the shocks off I'd fry you and Deevee8 until you look like fishsticks for blowing this whole QB run thing out of proportion.

I'm not sure this is the most elegant solution but it's a decent idea.

I realize this is a huge task, but if we could put zones into GL it would help. Better containment plays out of the GL would be a solid first step as well. What I feel would work the best is the ability to flip plays. It opens up things like 4-4 strong flipped with the CB blitzing and a zone umbrella.

I like the play flipping idea

I think the biggest thing that would help is an AI change for non-lineman to keep them from running into the scrum and instead moving down the line (based on successful Pursuit checks) until they have an open lane to attack the ball carrier, or until a lead block engages them.

But even with that, I'd still like to see a bit more thought go into playcalling than "I hope I get lucky".

I like it though not sure how easy that is for Corndog to pull off.

Extrapolate?

Gotta agree with Jampy

Again, wat

Is it not obvious that toughness and intimidation affect how much morale is lost on being tackled?

The solution is simple. Limit goal line formations to goal line situations.

Sorry buddy, love my DC, but that should be a ngth suggestion
