I think you meant especially you.

Also, glad I got Skeen as my backup QB. He may be a turnover machine, but he's got better good than my current backups. Might ride 4 deep at QB this year.

I think Ozias might have accidentally said L when he meant D.

Common mistake, but it's a matter of life or death.

I'm rolling with 1 minute special teams again. I did last year, and it wasn't special teams that did me in. In fact, we still had pretty good special teams performance (check the kick coverages and returns). Maybe there were the "bad plays" like blocked punts, kicks, etc, but I don't really remember more than a handful.

I'm happy to roll the dice on a few game-changing plays here or there since my cohesion isn't great, and that is something that has an effect on every snap.

Hey Julio, that WR's get downfield bar is interesting, no?

[Guest]

Yes, it certainly is. He is an interesting guy.

[Aston]

What are the bars that can do that sort of thing -- show up much higher and near maxed while the blue bar still looks low? I never knew this could happen until someone pointed it out to me about I think a RB's elusiveness bar, and I've also seen it in Hole Rec, interceptions, Endurance, Kick Power, 3rd down passing, GD (as here), KR...possibly M2M and ST, but I can't remember.

Maybe it's just every bar. There doesn't seem to be too much rhyme or reason to when it happens and when it doesn't. I'm still not really sure what it means.

Purely anecdotal, small sample size, etc... but I'm noticing a TON of penalties on kick/punt returns since going to the 1-min. thing. Might be something to check out, won't show up in the overall stats. Or rather, easy to miss.

[Guest]

I've always been too scared to 1 min the ST. Besides, my PR is terrible enough already.

I noticed with 1 min in ST that I miss more FGs and give up longer kick returns. I'm actually putting extra time into ST this year

I noticed this too, though I was generally on the winning side of the penalties.

Ahh...I am too lazy to redo my TC export. We will have to keep track of all the misfortune that befalls me on ST this year. I also took half an hour out of film study. I dunno, feeling reckless
