are there any plans to get rid of STOP's? just an unrealistic part of the game... please give me 10 seasons in advance even if you are considering it, because i just built some a couple seasons back and i want to know if they will last before a huge penalty is put on them.

How or why would we stop people from making a type of player? They can do whatever they want.

They're separate things, but related. The longer you can hold your block, the more chances you get to try for a pancake. Hold block doesn't have any direct effect on your actual chance to pancake on each try.

Thanks for the quick answer .I put together a rather rudimentary example of how I picture it then would this reasonably accurate ?

How I thought it might look in a typical play between OT/DE
tick 1 ball is snapped OT and DE move DE fails pass-by roll of OT .
tick 2 OT and DE clash and roll. First roll is for block engagement
OT and DE both roll OT wins Block will engage.Second roll happens which is Quality of block aka pancake roll
OT rolls / fail DE revcake rolls / Fail. Normal block ensues .
tick 3 OT and DE roll again for hold/disengage roll now and now hold block% adds to OT roll allowing him to win this roll more often and this roll repeats until either the DE wins it allowing him to retry roll # 1 or win roll #2 or other factors happen such as ball carrier or passer moves closer forcing a change in tactics such as attempt at tackle or Pass deflection.

What sort of changes are you hoping to implement to the passing game at all levels of the game. I see passing being somewhat overpowered in Pee Wee, non existent once you hit around level 30 and then completely crazy at the Pro/WL level. Just want to get some insight as to what you guys are working on.

Again - I point you to test server discussions. It's all detailed there and testing is ongoing at this time.

is there any chances of change it from dots to something that looks kind of like players? I am not saying use this but something simialr to the old school tecmo bowl graphics

When does an offensive lineman attempt to cut block? Is it just when they lose a hold block roll? Or is it when they lose a hold block roll and are going to be revcaked they attempt to cut block? What stats, aside from the level of your Cut Block skill, effect the likelihood of the Cut Block being successful?

Yeah I saw your reply. My post was at the end of a page and thought it may be overlooked

are coaches dead and buried?

Do you think for season 19 we will have an updated system for calculating ST MVPs to where the punters on the worst teams who punt most often and deeper (so they can just let it rip) aren't consistently at the top. Seems to be mostly a problem in leagues without CPU teams where KR/PRs can't rack up 50TDs in a game. Maybe one that gives a bit of credit to fumble forcing STOPs or takes return averages or maybe punting inside the 10 or inside the 5 into consideration?

Related to MVPs, do you think season 19 we will have a better endorsement system so KR/PRs don't keep getting deflect ball% endorsements and rushing/receiving FBs don't keep getting lead block and blocking?

I've been playing with the P MVP math recently actually.

Special teams MVP endorsements already do get special returner type items.

May have been answered in past seasons but I've just never seen it.

Why after a Fumble is Caused, it takes a Player 3-5 seconds before they start moving with the Ball?

NFL Players try right away to scoop up the ball, sometimes not corralling it right away and knocking it 4-5 yards away.

Rarely do you see players take their time, make sure they have 2 hands on the ball, then see if anyone is around them. Then decide to run.

All players currently just fall on the ball when recovering it. I had messed around with having the ball get batted around and such in the past, but it hasn't been a big priority really.

Are there anymore changes on the radar for Casual leagues and Basic Ai?

Nothing crazy planned at the moment. We will be doing a few more things in the future I am sure.
