17-0 against Prague was close?
nope, it was a solid win. I think you should relax and feel very comfortable about it if we get the chance to play you in the playoffs. I might even suggest you rest your starters to have them better prepared for your second round games :-)

The smart-alecky reply really is very unbecoming. We just don't play the 'run up the score' game, like others. Look at our two wins against the bottom dwellers... we predominantly ran the ball to try to keep the score down... Anyway, I KNOW my team isn't the strongest... but we dominated your team before we realized our own potential... My point is that ADD isn't the only team that dominated you, and you may wish to reconsider your opinion of your team's strength.
And I'm sorry to tell everyone this, but the most underrated team in our division is GCP. This season they seem to have played down to their competition at times... they are a team to watch out for.

It's impossible to play "run up the score". The game will sim and you either suck or you don't. If you suck, then you're going to have the score run up on you.

No it's not, with the advanced tactics you can have the back ups favored if you start winning. There are a fair amount of teams who do not do this....either for stat padding or whatever it may be.

WELL WE ARE NOT ONE OF THOSE TEAMS!!!That tries to run it up.
Thats why we are so balanced. Thats also why our number two FB is a touchdown machine"11"/and, our number 2 RB has "10". Cause we make sure the 2nd wave of DESTRUCTION comes in and, does there job, that is finishes the team off by the 3rd quarter!!!

If your back ups, or SECOND WAVE as we call it, runs up the score, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE. feel free to check our stats,

What he said. Seriously, look at our 'backups'. Even without the advanced tactics, there is a point where your team is subbing in every other play. So it really comes down to whether or not your team sucks. If it does, like the ducks, you'll get rolled.

I chose to sleep on Kiev. You guys squeaked it versus us once and I have not seen any significant improvements from your team while other teams near you in ranking have made significant strides forward(ADD, even). Losing to ADD by 21, regardless of when the points were scored, shows your team is the exact same it was in week one.
No insult intended, but that's what it looks like.

I chose not to favor backups until the fourth for many reasons. None of them having to do with stat padding but more stat fulfillment. Getting the starters the same reps in every game regardless of the score is crucial for development. I know it looks good for the backups to get their reps in when it gets ugly, and for that I have the entire fourth quarter dedicated for that. I've considered making it the second half, but I'm afraid of a late game push that screws me. I'm not an owner that cares for individual stats, I don't even look at them for my team. Apparently several of my starters are near the top in their categories. Congrats to them, I don't notice except when discussing that actual topic. I look at team stats broken down over the latest games. That's how I know how a team has played, opposed to breaking down individual players one by one.

That's not true. If I chose to throw a lot of long passes against Albuquerque and Lowell, the scores would have easily topped 100 in both games. The fact is, just like in real football, throwing the ball more means more plays per game. So, by running significantly more than passing, I basically shortened the game. Look at the games... We didn't have enough possessions to score 15 touchdowns (105 points). If we'd chosen to pass all day, we would have.
I hope, for SGA's sake, that you are ONLY a player and don't have any input into the gameplanning... because you really are showing how clueless you are with that statement.

It's true...check our BHB game. We ran so much they only had 49 total plays, compared to our 75. No team will score many points with that few plays unless they are really pass heavy and they weren't.They ran 31 times, passed 18. BHB only scored a TD on a medium pass where my CB missed the play. Holding teams to under 60 total plays is usually an auto win if you have a good defense.

No insult taken. We don't pretend that we're a top team in EEAAA. Heck we could easily lose to ATL tomorrow. But, if we make the playoffs, we'll do everything in our power to be the upset special. Regular season wins are nice, but its the playoffs that count.
