I have been playing this a while now...... and have what seems a reasonable team.....

But recently despite all players improving skills, results are going south !!

Yesterday I played a team that on paper I should have beaten....... especially as they used 14 different QBs...... none of which were a QB but LBs safety’s etc.....

So how can this be ?
Thanks

Maybe it is not your team becoming worse, but your opponents becoming better?

But surely I shouldn’t be losing to a team using 14 different qbs ?

All of which are defensive or so teams players........

And all had decent stats !

They also used 14 different receivers/TEs again all defensive or sp teams players.....

Combined they got 279 yards passing......

There has to be something wrong here - surely ?

Don't get me wrong, but you have somehow beaten yourself by using a really strange set of tactics...

Your playbook is certainly to blame but I would think a realistic sim would severely hinder the offensive success of using 14 diff players @ QB and WR (and probably all the other positions too).

I would feel a little cheesed to, loosing to a team like that.....

Been looking a bit at the results of your last 10ish games.....I think Pete is right, that you would need to look at your PB. Sorry to say.

I cannot go into detail - obviously, but you should try to be a little more diverse in your playcalling based on formations, as example

People have said you should use a more diversified playbook.
However, I do agree with you that there should be extremely harsh penalties for someone using 14 different QBs and 14 different WRs.

I had thought that the OOP penalties were sufficient to prevent this but it appears they are not.
