Heya, fellow managers!
I have a question regarding special teams: The HAMBURG SEA LIONS have over the past seasons had a good special teams rating and a pretty reliable Kicker/Punter, who has a lot of EXP, a Strong Leg and 50 STR. He up until last season kicked good FGs and PATs regularly and usually missed only the really long ones on occasion. Which I'd deem understandable, given the fact that this simulation is pretty good at being close to what's happening IRL. This season, though, our Kicker seems to have lost his Mojo sometime in the offseason, missing kicks even from close range and punting some shanks that I'm not used to. Also our rating for this unit dropped significantly from last season at around 80 % to 70 % this season. So I wonder, and here the fact of the simulation being pretty close to IRL comes into play again, if the dip in quality of the other players does have an effect on the Kickers abilities. We had to let go some good players and now lesser rated players are lining up at STBL and STT. Could it be that therefore the Kicker can not kick to his full potential, because he's "rushed", like a QB that's not properly protected and therefore throws more INTs?  |

Allright, thanks.
Curiously I changed only two players on Special Teams for the game yesterday against the Deflators, now we're at over 80 % again 🤔 Now I have to just make the right decisions in the playbook to let the kicker make his magic instead of stupidly going for it on 4th down 😓 |
