Football = Field Goal Overload!
Football = Field Goal Overload!
Just created a custom Football League. I am not sure if I have wrong settings or what, but my league is a FG Happy League. I am 10 games in and I have kickers with 60+ attempts.
Is there a way to change that?
Also, RBs seem to be useless haven't had a 100yd/g rusher yet. Now, granted we are playing All-Time Greats from 1970 to Present and Defenses are stout, but there has to be some type of setting to even out the playing field.
Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

Re: Football = Field Goal Overload!
A lot of people have it set to settle for the 3, and use kickers with long ranges, leading to many attempts in general. Scoring is at such a premium that I definitely employ that strategy too.
Rush offense is definitely limited as well, in my experience. Yards/rush, yards/game are at a premium, with so many stellar defensive fronts.
This is just my opinion, hope you're having fun anyway!

Re: Re: Football = Field Goal Overload!
Well, unfortunately I am not having fun. The scoring system needs an overhaul. Kickers attempting 100fgs in a season, that's ridiculous.
RBs not able to get 100yds a game...the likes of O.J, Walter, Barry, Jim Brown...c'mon. There should be the option to set offensive and defensive sliders.

Re: Football = Field Goal Overload!
@SwampDonkey okay I had a little time to take a look at your league... I see that every team basically has a full defensive roster of 15+ AV players, most teams have many 20+ AV players. So this is basically saying every defense in the league is the 1985 Chicago Bears ON STERIODS. So you're right, it really doesn't matter who the offense is, the game will tilt toward the defense. So, there's not currently a way to make that work to your liking. I think we simply have not had many, if any, leagues constructed this way so it has not been an issue yet. I could see how a league that is essentially going to have an entire league of 15+ AV players would need some "nerfing" levers. But at the moment, I am not really sure what to suggest other than making the pool of defensive players not so exceptional.
