Guys it's simple, just have your superstar QB throw to your superstar TE/WR. Easy, peasy.
im talking strictly playcalls. we dont even have a s* QB and in this meta s* WRs have a catch rate very similar to non s* WRs.
my point is that with the right play selection you can convert on 3rd and short or 3rd and very short at a high percentage rate easily in the current sim. if you are having trouble converting short passes, you may just not selecting the right plays or setting the tactics correctly to fire the right plays in the right situations. (not a knock at all, it takes experience to get this all to work correctly and most people dont put in the time since the game is dead)
my concern is that you used to be able to use that same level of experience to fire the right plays at the right time to exploit more than just the 3rd down conversions, but now since there is no more game planning for outside runs, inside runs, screens, etc - the meta is just picking 5-6 good pass plays and then setting up good plays to fire on 3rd/5 and 3rd/2, rinse and repeat.

just to be clear Id rather be in a league this competitive and miss the playoffs than to have 2 or 3 good teams with no competition and a bunch of cpu teams and make the playoffs......but it still stings...
