*looks around to see if anyone buys it...


please don't, I'd much rather have them out of the league after this year

Still, more power to you if you do.

as the season passed, the scores against them seemed to get better...

maybe they just started playing the mercy AI.

but I donno, they have a HUGE roster, I mean, they have like 5 lineman for each position on both sides of the ball, just crazy depth everywhere. its got to be impossible to get everyone 50 plays a game for max EXP. I didnt look that hard to see how they are subbing, or if they focus on just a few people at each position.

Well, this is the point I made earlier in the season. Their depth is what will murder you because they will never, ever get tired. Even if you kind of play them close early they have fresh guys later one. If you look, those 5 linemen are all pretty high level. It's because the entire team is from just a handful of agents. It really is the true secret for why they are so good. Late in the game your starters and back ups probably are tired, and those back ups don't compare with theirs. They meanwhile, have fresh guys who are better than your back ups ready to come in. That is what makes them so tough to beat. People look at their talent level but it's the size of the roster and the quality of their 3rd string guys that really does it.

I think this point is VERY valid. Depth kills, man.
It's been beneficial for us at times this year, for sure.

It killed my team. We're a running team. We live off of wearing down other teams. Teams with depth tend to play much better football against us.

depth does kill lol. killed 19 times so far, well superior levels kill a bit too. put em together and they kill with triple digits.

my only observation is the slower leveling that results from it, eventually you would think it could sink their levels vs their competition far enough that the depth cant compensate. or maybe not... lord knows you hardly get any levels from game exp at this point anyway.
