1st pick was a DL with 48.5 strength, which is pretty weak for my line, and I have way too many DLs already. But his speed is uncapped and he has both Sure Tackler and Brickwall. So I plan to give him a shot.


I'm kind of opposed to the idea of thinking 48.5 is "weak." If anything, it sounds like you've made an argument for lowering the hit rate of 50s in the YA, assuming we think the draft players should be better. Also, I've noticed a huge increase in the number of startable players in this draft as opposed to any other.

Oh I definitely agree. I currently have 13 players on my active roster with 50 strength, and another 6 players with 49+ strength. More guys coming up through the YA every year.

Unbelievable victory for the Lakers on season opening match ...
It was counted under the "match going to lose" list.

We came out with a defensive & special team super-performance while the offense struggled with three Interceptions and a couple of fumble.

A glimpse of hope at the horizon, now the difficult part is to keep up with such a good start.

I think unbelievable is the word of the week as I pulled off the most unlikeliest of wins over a team that played in last years conference championship.

Well done also to those other promoted 2.x teams that also won - what a great start for the new boys !!!

Congratulations on your win. Obviously, I'm pretty disappointed by the result and have since then tried to figure out what went wrong. My 3rd down conversation rate is one of the reason, in particular during the first half where all the completed passes end up to short for a first down. I thought that the QB was always trying to throw the ball deep enough to get the first down so it seems that I still have a lot to learn.

My start is looking just like last time I was up Which obviously didn't go so well.

3 point game until 5 minutes left in the 4th my QB threw a pick on my own 32 yard line... All down hill from there

Started badly tonight and successfully managed to get worse. A long season in store but pretty much as expected.

Well nice win. But I would be really surprise to get more than 9 wins this season. But next season watch out I am kicking it out of rebuild and into win mode.

nice game duck. I lost but it does make me feel good. Seeing your 80s rated team almost fall to my 69to 70s rated team.

Really rode my luck in OT against the Lakers - should have lost.
