Your defense is fine, but your offense is awful, QB specifically. best to fix that now a few games into the season

3 actually. One was a botched handoff in the backfield. Just finished watching the game, there were plenty of unlucky moments for both of our teams. Just another day of rookie ball.

I don't think people watched Kvothe27's team last season in rookie, it should be no surprise they're so good. Scranton is my pick to win the ladder

An all run team will not win the ladder. All you have to do is play zone and have CBs who can break blocks.

You lost because you have a terrible goalline defense. Those defensive plays got gashed.

Zone is weak early on, so they have a shot. I do agree though that it's not the best longterm strategy.

That pretty much sums up the entirety of GE's career. Holds teams to under 15 points, still can't win.

They are fairly good, but lets not pretend like they're some juggernauts or anything. Assisted Living gonna smash that winning formula.

Kvothe became a decent coach fast but lets be real people, C1 TE smother, Shallow Will Blitz, Cover 1 Man under, we've seen this before. I'm not knocking it either. I did that! I do that. I won 3 of my rings doing just that. Squads like Dream Team would still come around and spank me 79-0 though. Because they used to do that too.

He picked up the game. Great. Now he can actually start playing.

This got awkward but uh, it's pretty obvious that 1980s RULE CLOWN WORLD FOOLS is the only team worthy of winning ladder. Partially because Tiamat pancakes 3 people simultaneously, and... well that's actually the only reason. If anyone makes a defender that pancakes 4 people at once I'll change my vote.

Also, I'm all in favor of valid criticism, and I would love to hear your honest opinions of our deficiencies. That being said, while we do have a number of gimmicks, spamming those plays is not one of them. I don't even really know where you get that from besides maybe a few formations from the last two games? Anyways, I welcome your enthusiasm in challenging us but step one might be getting a better scouting report.

Passing is king in Rookie.

Let’s see who can build, execute and surprise some people with upsets.

Yep still true, man those trades of running all pass teams can come into help here.

As of me writing this, the Scranton/Nevada game is over and I watched the entire game. All running teams are too easy to stop. Holy Guac wins this game 21-3.

GS runs 49 times against the CPU.

GE you gotta stop stressing so much in rookie ball. Maybe stress slightly more halfway through the season. Rookie IMO is just a RNG DREAM, or Nightmare


In any one game sure, but over 30 not so much.

Passing is clearly the better Offensive choice. If you're targeting a balanced (even somewhat) Offense at Vet, build out the Passing part first for Rookie & Soph and then add in the Rushing skills.

No...and stop asking me.

I have the perfect offense set up to make a run in Vet...including a power running WR

It's lol rookie. 1980s will win the 'ship in Vet


FYI, you're a troll so I troll you back, but my offer to run your Offense isn't just a jab, I would legit do it.

But you've turned me down, so ....

If anyone at Rookie wants Offensive help, contact me.

TRIPS.
