Warrior General Games

i've rarely seen a second half collapse like that. we played very well in the first half, and then imploded. i was miffed by our kick returner fumbling, since he's got about 50 on carrying and has three pieces of equipment to keep him from fumbling.

it all went south when a pass that was "thrown away" by our backup qb, went right to one of their defenders for a pick six. everything from that point on was a snowball effect.

i'm wondering that the strength difference in the levels causes our guys to tire out late in games. they outlevel us by 10 at every position, and this is not the team that started 1-8.

Damn, yea, wow, I don't know what happened there.

We might not make it either. Maybe scrimmage?

i felt like that in the second half vs KGB. We moved the ball on every possession in the first half and had a 21-14 lead at the half. Then it just seemed like we ran out of gas in the second half. We had an early turnover as well inside their 20. If we had scored there, who knows.......

yeah gotitans, it looks like a scrimmage with the bullfrogs will about the best we can do. i'll shoot over a scrimmage date. if nothing else we can test out some things, and compare notes.

dzer, i have found it strange that this season we have faltered in the second half of games so much. you can't really make logical halftime adjustments on this game. the conditionals are too limited in my opinion. this has to have something to do with being worn out from a strength/stamina disadvantage. i don't have any factual data to back this up, but i can't really pinpoint any other reason for things to swing so violently out of control after playing a solid half. i mean how can we be leading at the half in a fairly low scoring game (by glb standards), then get outscored by 50 in the second half???

Do you guys have a difference offense kick in when your down going into the 2nd half or a difference defense? Or are your energy settings set low so your guys play too much in the first half and are tired out in the 2nd?

well, i'm pretty sure our energy settings are pretty even across the board, but certain positions are exhausted by game's end.

our offense does slightly change after falling behind in the second half, but it's not major until we're down huge.

accepted it octopus.

ditto. subs aren't the issue and our offense wont change unless we are up a bunch or down a bunch and neither was the case in this one. we were just a step slow in the second half. it had to be the levels.

...and now i have a fumbling issue with my kick returner. he's softcapped in carrying and has decent confidence, plus he's got advanced equipment with bonuses to not fumbling... what else can i do there?

Tell him to work on confidence

+1 I would have to agree... Don't let it get you down, Dunlap and "Diesel" have most their forced fumbles of kick off coverage.

i'm not down, i was just trying to figure out what to do to fix the problem. best of luck to you.

I just deleted my Defensive AI's. Going to start working on some new ones. Defense in the last two games is going to be horrible lol.
