So I anyone has a playbook that I can copy. I would greatly appreciate it if you let me use it. So If any top players can let me borrow them thanks! (Also I ask because my coaching karma is the worst everytime I play)

Creating a playbook is the most complex Task in this game and if you have one more or less working, it's highly unlikely you share that one. Some do spend hours creating one and you think someone is giving you the Vince-Lombardi-Win-All-Playbook just like that?

Start with the crucial game situations and then evolve.

At present you are 3-1 and have two bots in your division. I would suggest you make just one, maybe two changes to your PB each game, check that it works ok and then go on. Over time you will get to where you need to be.

Heh, I figured the answer would go down this path when I first saw OP. This is a good time to ask my own question.

So looked over the original playbook, and noticed how sparse it is.

Over my last few games, I notice a lack of red zone scoring. So my first play could be goal line formation when I am under 5 to go. I go pass or rush depending on the quality of my players, or even let it be random...

Is this what you guys are referring to?

its really a matter of what you feel comfortable in doing.

myself I went with 1st and 10 first, found 2 or 3 plays that seemed to give me some yards, then I had a different formation for each quarter (except 4th). I made 2nd downs with different distance, so 2nd and short, 2nd and 10, 2nd and long etc. then a 3rd down play again with different distances. I keep changing the formations for each situation.

So 1st quarter would be run, run, pass and 2nd quarter would pass, run, run, and 3rd would be pass, run, pass, while changing the formation, so 1st quarter a shotgun 2 would be pass, but in 2nd quarter it would be run etc.

Later I changed the 1st and 10 and have situations for when in my half and in opponents half. Also redzone situations, so inside the opponents 20, it would change again.

4th quarter is different as I also set situations if I was winning or losing, still using the previous setups. So if winning, I run more, to try and run the clock out, if losing, then I go to air with lots of chuck and duck stuff.

This took about 5 seasons to get sorted without too many problems.

But at the end of the day, its all about numbers, if the gods roll a 6 and you only roll a 3, you lose
