Not sure if this is getting trivial, but some of the terms used/manner in which they are used are different than conventional usage at least in America.
For example, nobody every plays a football match. It’s always a football game. Additionally, in the box score, for RBs and WRs, they report Rushing and Receiving (not Catching) yards. But in play-by-play, the announcer will say Wa l t e r Payton runs left for 3 yard (rarely will he say rushes). Also, for receivers, the announcer might say Jerry Rice catches (he wouldn’t receive) the ball and is tackled at the 14 yard line. It’s a little confusing and maybe it’s better to be consistent with in game environment versus consistent with RL. Just thought I’d mention it. Steve SD Blitz |

I like to watch NFL games in English and I think the terms you used are very good.

Of course this is right.
In general - since I am german with some terrible english sklills - I would like to ask you all for such reports. If you find anything that is called odd just tell me, pls. |

Steve and all others: I had a first try on fixing matches->games and rush->run. "received" never occured in the engine. Please, if you are able to find another ones, please tell me here. I will make this a sticky for the moment.

I think that one on the play-by-play was fine, but then the offensive stats are like:
Catching Catch Fitness / Energy MVP Name POS Plays Catches Yd Avg Longest TD Fum FumRec start end loss points San Diego Blitzkrieg Leonid Ivanyshyn WR 28 1 6 6 6 1 0 0 70.22 64.22 8.54 % 6/ But usually, in this instance they'd say Receiving and call catches Reception (at least sometimes - confusing, huh?). Box Score Example Receiving St. Louis Rams Rec Yds Avg Lng TD FumL Danario Alexander(notes) 3 122 40.7 68 1 0 Of course, in this box score play-by-play they used rush in stead of runs.
