Obviously the formula for punters is bugged in terms of punting quantity or total yards which is obviously going to be higher for the punters on the worst teams because they punt a lot more.
This is most noticeable in competitive leagues like WL and other leagues where there are less cpu games because KR/PRs and STOPs can rack up crazy unrealistic stats against CPU teams like 5ffum or 20 return TDs against CPUs in a 700-0 blowouts.
Because competitive leagues don't allow KR/PRs to have 10 TDs every 2-3 games the punters on bad teams who punt every other drive rack up crazy "total punt yards" and because they are always punting from their own 20 their punt yard avg is higher too than a guy who punts from the 45 on a good team and has to coffin corner it for 45 yards rather than booting it from his own 20 for 65yds.
This is creating very unrealistic and stupid looking ST MVP results which also is taking away local/national endorsements from those teams because you can only have a set number of endorsements.
I suggest that the formula not count at all "total" punt yards and focus more on things like coffin corners and then increase avg punt return yards (rather than total) and count tackles/fumbles/fumblerecoveries more for STOPS considering how important they are in the modern sim.
Not sure where to put this but the punters on the worst teams being in the top MVP voting definitely counts as "not working as intended"
