Meh, we try pretty hard to be a balanced O team. You had a S* RB vs 3 S* receivers to play against.

Are you guys still crying about counters?

identical teams (same roster, same season), gameplan, and tactics... only difference... COUNTERS

yes, counters are incredibly OP

Defense is pretty broken in GLB 2, if the entire team didnt take the exact same bad route to the ball every time counters wouldnt be hard to stop.

Your defenses are notorious for being horrible vs the run, and you specifically are notorious for calling really bad gameplans vs. run teams. Once again you over-planned and used a defensive playcall that was already giving up a ridiculous amount of yards to Big I to begin with.

If the safeties actually played safety instead of behaving like LBs, it would do alot to prevent the huge gains on those plays. Safeties playing to make TFLs on every play leads to disastrous consequences when the TFL fails and the HB reaches the next level of the defense.

Just bumping this back to the top. Hope this is looked at before next season starts.


Those of you who were of the opinion that counters are fine: has your opinion changed?

I do not know how counters could go this next offseason without getting addressed. The topic has been too hot and the stats kind of speak for themselves. Not sure what Bort and CDog will do to tone them down or if it will work or completely crush them though. I would not build a team looking to exploit them going forward though as a change surely will come eventually. I will be shocked if no change comes this offseason.

Prepare to be shocked.

Nope. I have come to the opinion that the only way to fix counters is to adjust defender path finding.

They aren't inherently OP and therefore impossible to defend against. They are just impossible to defend against when you have to defend against other types of plays at the same time.

To me, that means the fix is in adjusting counter focus D plays to not be terrible against the pass and pass focus D plays to not be terrible against the counter.

Counters themselves are fine, defense just needs some gap assignments and better angles of pursuit.

nerf inside buff counters?

I am pretty tired of hearing about counters at this point. I think we need something new that is OP like FB screens or inside FB runs.
