Well, that is not a run of the mill team or manager. He's probably spanked more asses than you've seen...me included

Reworked my playbook end of last season and seeing some good results. Beat Bounty Hunters from Claymore in a friendly today despite losing turnover battle 4-1 and a 77.7% to 64.7% overall difference. Not sure if friendly games have the same engine, though. But it would have been a blowout if my QB wouldn't have kept throwing the ball to the other team on our side of the field. I'm debating picking up a veteran QB to try and win some extra games this year. Figured I'd be a punching bag again but reconsidering now. Got my veteran QB. Proceed to get blown out 46-6 with 5 INT against Dumbarajko Elephants in 1st round of Supercup. Looks like punching bag is back on the menu. Oh well. |

This was sent to me from someone else. I will do it myself going forward and I will be using Deep AI like I do for my reviews on MMA Tycoon. I like the style, but this was just already done so I posted it. Sorry for that. But the fact that people are posting on the forums has sparked my fire to keep it going. It will improve, I promise you that.

I am not a savant in this game, but two thinks pop out right off the bat as a possible reason to this. 1) He's new to the team, so maybe his team chemistry isn't up to par yet? I'm not sure w/o scouting him. 2nd, I have to wonder if your playbook is too easily predictable for the AI to adapt? A smart defense will adjust to plays faster, so if you run the same formation a lot in similar situations, you will incur a lot of interceptions from high INT LB's and SF's. I've seen this most predominately with the LBs. I would just go though the playbook and look at possible ways to make a few slight changes if you notice any of those plays seem to be repeating in similar down/distances or from qtr to qtr with time on clock. It is also possible that it has something to do with pressure on the QB? I don't know if that's a mechanic in the game, but if your line is missing a lot of blocks, I would assume that would rush the QB and force more turnovers. But that could just be me blowing hot air as I have no idea if that's a thing. lol |

But I started off the game 13-6 and had some over-confidence, regardless. I guess if that's the worst beating I get in my 3rd season then I'll be okay. Though I doubt that's the case.

My backup QB threw 2 of them, I like to rotate QBs but that is entirely expected because he is not great. Bleakardor wrote:

I hadn't considered INT would help diagram playbook faster. Yes, my playbook is very basic right now with lots of repeating formations and rules. My INTs came on 2nd and very long, (3) from 3rd and long, and a 1st down from a balanced formation. I'm leaning more towards option 1 right now since quality was 82.3 to 66.3. I think I just had a bad QB2 and a low TC QB1. |

I think I just had a bad QB2 and a low TC QB1. I'm still learning, and Boa has really helped out. But yeah, if your playbook is basic, a good and smart def will adapt and pick you off a lot. This being your third season, you're doing very well I have to say. I am still in need of some new playbook work myself, and will probably work a new one or two in over the next few days as soon as I can bring myself to do it. lol Don't get discouraged, just keep training your guys and making small tweaks to your playbook. Oh, and you said a lof of them were long down situations. I will say this, if you throw "deep" passes, you have a much higher chance of being Intercepted. Those are good for "shock" plays where it's a random mix up to hit a deep route in the middle of your series, but if you do them very often they will get intercepted at a high rate. |

Those are good for "shock" plays where it's a random mix up to hit a deep route in the middle of your series, but if you do them very often they will get intercepted at a high rate. For sure. I only do pass because of this. Read it in Jack's guide. But the QB throws to the first down marker so figure it is a deep pass, regardless if I call it out or not. Subjecting it to higher INT rate. Combined with relative weaker ratings and now this new information of them solving my playbook. I think that explains 5 INTs pretty well. If you have a good forum link of the mechanics of the playbook being figured out, it would be greatly appreciated. So I can avoid making a more complicated playbook that still is solved. Since I'm assuming it is based on defensive playbook rules and not just mine. |

I don't have a link for the playbook help, but I do have a link that we had where a manager gave some really good tips for playbooks that directly impact this. Playbook Tips |
