Am I correct in saying that

1) The AC's didn't have an added impact to PC in training until today, we fixed this error, and from wednesday morning (the next training) AC's of most positions have an impact on regular PC training
2) During the game some positions don't lose PC as quickly as others, for example, a RB or OL will tire quicker than an K or P

or did I read something wrong?


Fixed

Thanks Pete, makes sense now!

But 'Player Rating' is not allways correct.

How so?
It is simply a visualisation of a mixture of skills calculated together through a position based formula, only Peter knows.
What's wrong or right with that?

Just scout some of my guys
Genadiy Vorona
Roman Yarovyi
Yosyp Chayka

All they are have OL raiting 2,5.

before I waste any money scouting, give us a clue ..... what are we looking for ? what will this prove ? what is so unusual/special about your 2.5* OL's compared with my 2.5* OL's ?

I scouted them in some fields they have high values, in others they don't have high values.

As I said, the star rating is a plain formular and of course there are possible nonsense configuration, which might bring the same rating as a real OL rating.

But this it not a question of wrong or right.

It's pure math.

If the main difference between an OL and an DL is the blocking/tackling value and the rest is the same, a good OL will always have also a higher DL rating, because if that. This will differentiate more, the higher the primary skills are apart.

Exactly.

I think managers put too much emphasis on the 'player rating' ....

e.g. I have a 3.5* LB who is an excellent LB, very-well balanced.

He has a 3* Rating at QB and WR and OL and DL.

Believe me .... he isn't a QB/WR or OL and will never play at those positions (he'd make a formidable DL though with a small amount of specific training).

So just use the ratings to compare apples with apples i.e. QB vs QB etc

Here is a clue ........

if ever you play my team, use Vorona as a QB all-game (no substitutions), go with 'pass-deep' as your playbook setting for every play.

If you play any other team, use Vorona as an OC
