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.

This is where my opinion lies. As an all running team, counter's were stopped. They definitely weren't OP. Where they were OP is trying to stop the 3 wide spam AND the 3 wide counter. So nerfing counter's is not the answer, they are part of the game. Giving the defense a way to stop a counter and a 3 wide is something that should be looked at.

Just fix the damn blitz pathing in relation to the line of scrimmage. That would change the whole counter/pass dynamic.

Also a bevy of defensive plays could be added that would help against certain OP formation counter/pass combos.

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.

Jim Harbaugh approves this message.

Since we already know it can be done, this would be a simple fix that might help but not sway things too far. Just reduce the strength of counter fakes further.

They could also adjust Trips HB Counter slightly so the pathing right around the pitch uses a bit more footwork. Should slow things down slightly.

Bit like what the HB does here? He has 0 footwork. Most of the time that's. TFL for him though

I would feel bad bragging against a tier below...... He's done it quite a few times and that was the only one I knew how to find in 1 minute. (Because of the sick juke obvs!)

Yeah, like that. I've noticed it way more on some other counters, so I thought they were just coded for that or something.

Fixing trips counter doesn't help with Big I Counter left, which I think is on par with it and maybe even better.

Agree, the extra blockers makes it more dangerous.

BEST OF STATS Season 14

Total Offensive Yards *Through 28 Games*
1. Hall of Fame (Sophomore : Vodka) : 847 yards per game (Run Lean, 66% of yards from counters)
2. Djibouti Assassins (Veteran : Hydrogen) : 779 yards per game (Balanced, 56% of yards from counters)
3. EEA 2.0 (Professional : Hannibal) : 749 Yards per game (Run lean, 28% of yards from counters)
4. Panty Obliterating Rectal Ninjas (Professional : Patton) : 748 yards per game (Balanced, 38% of yards from counters)
5. Game of Zones (Journeyman : Cougar) : 732 yards per game (Balanced, 53% of yards from counters)

BEST OF STATS Season 12

Total Offensive Yards
1. Djibouti Assassins (Veteran : Hydrogen) : 690 yards per game (Pass Heavy)
2. Hostile Takeover (Professional : Ash) : 676 yards per game (Pure Pass)
3. Green Bay Packers (Veteran : Hydrogen) : 666 yards per game (Pure Pass)
4. Bronx Bombers (Professional : Ash) : 661 yards per game (Pass Heavy)
5. LogZilla Boys (Veteran : Diamond) : 651 yards per game (Pure Pass)

As you can see, the top offenses are putting up more yards per game while running the ball more. Doesn't make sense since you would think it would run more clock and result in fewer possessions. But these counters are resulting in so many big plays that they are much better than any passing play.

I know this game is not on par with the NFL, but rushing shouldn't be getting more yards per attempt than passing.

Damn Rob.
