I have no idea about the other games, but I pick Acorns by 17. I'm not sure why I am having a rough go this year. I'm not sure if we cou beat someone's grandma.... BTW you are doing a great job!🍻🍻 Bleakardor wrote:
What do you think will be the game of the week this week? 1. Acorns vs Bangers? 2. Fargo Knights vs Reapers? 3. Sloths vs Glizzy Gobblers? You tell me? You stand corrected, sir! lol Good game but the score indicates that was not the game of the week. I haven't finished viewing all the games, but the Fargo Knights vs Reapers was so far looking like the game of the week with the Reapers pulling off the big upset win in front of their home crowd. Mostly a defensive game in the 1st, the first time I've ever seen the Reapers get a saftey. Punter came in clutch pinning the ball out of bounds on the 2 yard line and resulting in a safety on the next play. Then, to bounce back, Knights popped a 80 yard TD pass on 1st and 10 to kick off the 2nd quarter, and then had a big INT that set them up in good position to score their 2nd TD of the half and jumped out to a 14-12 lead headed into half time. 3rd QTR, Reapers bounced back up top with a TD taking a 19-17 lead and then some back and forth in the 4th and a late fumble by the Knights to seal the deal and give the Reapers a narrow victory. I must admit, didn't expect the knights to punt on 4th down with under a minute to go in the game and losing in opponent territory. It would have been a long shot, but I've seen crazier things happen. Great game @Timned! |

**Game of the Week Preview: Neroverde @ Bonaval Acorns**
This Saturday’s clash between Neroverde and the Bonaval Acorns promises to be a thrilling in-division showdown with major playoff implications. Both teams enter the game with a lot on the line — a win could see Neroverde leapfrog into second place in the NC East, while the Acorns aim to bounce back from their first defeat of the season and maintain their grip on second in the NC North. **Team Form & Standings** Neroverde, sitting at 3-2, has been climbing steadily with back-to-back wins. They’re hungry to solidify their postseason position, and a victory here would propel them into second place in the division. Meanwhile, the Bonaval Acorns, currently 3-1, are looking to retain their momentum after their first loss of the season. Sitting in second in the NC North behind undefeated Akron Pro’s, the Acorns know that a win against Neroverde would keep their divisional dominance intact. **Statistical Breakdown & Key Matchups** Both teams display balanced and efficient play across the board. Neroverde boasts a slightly higher passing score of 69.7%, complemented by a rushing score of 68.1%. Their pass defense stands at 71.1%, indicating solid coverage, while their special teams are also performing well at 73.8%. Bonaval Acorns, with an overall rating of 69.9%, hold a marginal edge in passing at 67.0% but lead slightly in rushing at 68.1%. Their pass defense at 68.2% is comparable, and their special teams at 73.1% round out a well-rounded squad. **Key Factors** - **Offense vs. Defense:** The Acorns’ slightly better passing game could challenge Neroverde’s pass defense. Conversely, Neroverde’s rushing attack might test the Acorns’ run defense, which remains steady at 68.1%. - **Turnovers & Special Teams:** Both teams have shown strong special teams play, which could be pivotal in close situations. - **Momentum & Motivation:** Neroverde’s streak of wins gives them confidence, but the Acorns’ desire to bounce back from their first loss adds intensity to this rivalry fixture. **Conclusion** With playoff positioning on the line and divisional bragging rights at stake, this matchup is set to be a hard-fought battle. Expect strategic play-calling, intense rivalry energy, and a game that could come down to the wire.

**Game of the Week Preview: Panthers @ Fargo Knights**
This week’s marquee matchup features two of the league’s top teams, both fighting for division supremacy and crucial playoff positioning. The undefeated Panthers head east to take on the Fargo Knights in what promises to be a high-stakes, hard-fought battle that could define the postseason landscape. The Panthers enter the game riding a perfect 5-0 record and sitting comfortably atop the AC North in a tie for first place. Their balanced attack has been a nightmare for defenses all season, with a top-five passing game combined with a powerful rushing attack that keeps opponents guessing. On the other side of the ball, their defense has been suffocating, consistently stifling both the pass and the run, making them a tough team to beat. Fargo, meanwhile, is coming off a narrow, hard-fought loss to the Reapers but remains in strong position at 4-1, leading the NC South. The Knights boast one of the league’s most dynamic offenses, with the second-ranked passing attack and a solid rushing game. Their defense, while slightly more vulnerable than their offense, still ranks among the best in the league, especially against the run. Both teams understand what's at stake. A win for the Panthers would keep their undefeated streak alive, strengthen their grip on the top spot in the division, and bolster their playoff seeding. But a loss would open the door for their rivals and could drop them into a second-place tie, complicating their postseason prospects. For Fargo, victory would cement their position at the top of the South, but a loss could threaten their division lead, especially if other results swing in favor of their competitors. With playoff seeding and a first-round bye on the line, neither team will hold anything back. Expect a clash of styles—finesse against grit, offense against defense—in what is shaping up as one of the most exciting games of the season. This is more than just a matchup; it’s a pivotal showdown that could very well decide division titles and playoff seeding. Be sure to tune in—this is the game of the week you won’t want to miss! |

I really need to figure out what is going on with my playbook. I hadn't changed anything from last season but for some reason now it's saying I don't have offensive coverage in my playbook for like 20+ plays a game...
Anyone have any broad ideas on why with no changes this might happen? |

Game of the Week: Braska Bangers vs. Akron Pro's – A Classic Clash Ends in Heartbreaking Overtime Thriller
In a highly anticipated showdown of undefeated teams, the Akron Pro's edged out the Braska Bangers in a nail-biting overtime battle, 40-34, in what was undoubtedly one of the most thrilling games of the season. The Bangers, riding a five-game winning streak, came into the contest looking to solidify their dominance, and they did just that early on. Led by their confident offense, Braska controlled the game from the start, building a 20-10 lead at halftime. Their defense also held strong, keeping Akron at bay despite some early struggles. However, the second half told a different story. The Pro's mounted a fierce comeback, scoring two touchdowns in the final quarter to tie the game and force overtime. The tension was palpable as both teams battled fiercely, but Akron’s resilience paid off in the extra frame. After winning the coin toss, the Pro's methodically marched down the field, capping their drive with a decisive touchdown to seal the victory. One of the most remarkable aspects of this game was the performance of Braska’s quarterback, Achmed Hadad. Despite throwing four interceptions—an uncharacteristic stat for the young QB—Braska remained competitive and even had a chance to clinch victory. Hadad’s resilience under pressure kept the game within reach, and with cleaner execution, the Bangers could have emerged victorious in regulation. This loss drops Braska to 5-1, but they still maintain a two-game lead in their division and remain firmly in first place. Conversely, Akron moves to 7-0, continuing their impressive undefeated streak and solidifying their position as one of only three remaining unbeaten teams in the league. The win gives Akron a commanding two-game lead in their division and puts them in the driver's seat for a deep playoff run. Looking ahead, if these two talented teams meet again, it will undoubtedly be for the league championship—a rematch sure to be filled with excitement, intensity, and high-level football. Fans should be eagerly awaiting that potential showdown, which promises to be one for the ages. This game will be remembered not just for its dramatic finish, but for the fierce rivalry that continues to develop between two of the league’s top contenders. Both teams showed resilience, skill, and heart—making this game an instant classic in our simulation league’s history. Last edited on 2025-07-20 22:39:21 by Bleakardor |
