Warrior General Games

All my zone coverage guys will have 90+ zone awareness so you can check them out in a few season. My FS already has 90 zone awareness.

I tried TE Smother today:

Wish we executed better.

That play seems broken. I don't think CB2 should not be lined up where he is. He gets over to the TE in time to try and make a play, but he's so out of position that normally I doubt he would.

This is a perfect example of how OP passing is. Are you kidding me?! 3 guys are smothering that WR and he STILL catches it.

Passing is not OP. There are defensive schemes to limit passing. Just have to have good enough players to fit that mold

When a player constantly catches balls when 3 guys are hanging all over him, passing is OP. Or when a player constantly catches the ball while off balance and falling to ground, passing is OP.

While I don't think that passing is really that OP, sometimes it just gets annoying:

I mean.... four guys is better than three.

One play and passing is OP?

In related news, no receiver in the history of football has caught a pass in triple coverage.

One time = great catch!

Multiple times per game = OP.

passing is OP in lower tiers. Why is it possible to beat run just with the right plays and passing need the right plays, the right builds + lots of luck? You can constantly have receivers (especially low level TEs) in double coverage and yet they catch more passes than not. Its ridiculous. But yeah, got used to it, so maybe its not OP and it became "normal" over here ;-)

Yeah...you can pretty much count that on one hand in a five year span. How often does that happen here?

However...the smoother plays are a step in the right direction. Maybe they are even the solution. Who knows

I could have said this about running 3 seasons ago, but then they took away goalline rollouts/sweeps, they made defenders contain outside runs better, and they completely nerfed blocking skills. So...if being able to stop something only by having extremely specialized builds that are useless against other types of teams isn't OP, then sure, passing isn't OP. If what I just described is OP, then so is passing right now.

Not really sure how you get that.

FSM used one non-S* build, and one play, to completely shut down most Vet Pass teams last season.

OK, I'm probably over-simplifying it a bunch so I'll let AZ talk about FSMs Pass D in specifics. But Unguided Missle is destroying most Passing teams and he's not even a S* build.

Speaking of FSM vs Logzilla, I was hoping we'd face towards the end of the season where chemistry on 2 of my new secondary would be better. If I lose again I hope we at least meet in the playoffs somehow. I think Aeir's two new players will be pretty nice additions to the pass D.

Any who, against Ground Assault and Wrath? I also have highly specialized builds for them. Much less hyped and not as damaging, but without them I wouldn't have won Diamond last season.

HAHA has a few more specialized builds than FSM. Especially against the run. FSM's weakspot pre Pro tier was run teams, so I wanted to make sure I could match up better.

FSM has had a top 2 defense the past 2 seasons, and #1 last season. Run D or Pass D specialists are both very useful.

You do know my record vs Xars' Boys is like 0 for life, right? Then again I never did change D tactics
