True, but it's not just Cotton seeing that behavior. It's rookie D-Leagues, PW Gold + Silver, looks like Orange + Rose have their share of freak show D dots as well. The leaders in sacks, FFum, total tackles, TFLs, all being dominated by CPU dots.
Orange you have to go to #8 down the list to find the first 'human' dot, just like rookie D Leagues. Rose it's only the top 2, but there's less CPUs there overall. It looks to me like CPU scaling across the entire age group got miscalculated somehow.
You've got pass rush DEs, whipping around the OT (gaining speed while turning via speed scout) to make the speed rush sack - which you could explain away saying well the rookie OL is just slow. But then the next play, that same DE is rev caking 3 OL dots bull rushing straight through them at warp speed.
The forced fumbles is especially odd to me, as rookie dots usually can't do that period. I was the statistician for the Underground Leagues, and there were 21 forced fumbles total - across all dots over ~25 seasons of play. Most of the rookie leagues right now have drastically out paced that through only 3 games.
