Hard to say.

Run blocking was a secondary concern when I assembled my offensive line since I got to the OL late and couldn't have Fitzpatrick throwing under pressure. Had to sacrifice somewhere with what was available and chose to focus on guys who were stronger pass blockers.

And yet Kerryon Johnson was great before he went down and Cook has stepped in and is keeping things going at 7 yards/pop.

I don't actually think my OL is full of excellent run blockers, but I do think I got a couple of talented RBs that are playing well.

But I guess it's the fog that makes it fun...

Lewdog may be up for coach of the year, leading the Phoenix Diablos to an 8-4 record behind Joe ****ing Flacco and a Street Free Agent who managed to go 2-1 in the last 3 games. Heavy doses of Ingram and Gurley on the ground allowed the free agent QB to throw for a paltry 115 yards and still lead the team to victory.

Defensive adjustments to dime and nickel blitz packages have helped the defense recover from a poor start to the season.

Flacco does not return in week 13, so Phoenix will have to start Sam Darnold, who will see his first playing time of the year. Diggs and Hopkins will be happy to have the Street Free Agent back on the bench.

you best pipe down, i have broken the code

not even poorly-programmed brees INTs can stop me now

Who’s Talladega Knights in league 2? Did you sign your whole team to a one year deal and that’s how you have so much money to spend in free agency??

TambaBerry 01-08-2020 08:48 PM

Idk but this league has way more money

wheeler08 01-08-2020 08:55 PM

League 1 I signed as many good players long term as I could. League 2 I was like, I’m only going to do max 4-5 years for my top 5-7 players. Short deals for everyone else and build depth through free agency. Then this goon comes in here and is max bidder on everyone and I’m like WTF?!? Lol

Its me... I only have 1 qb, Rodgers, and hes signed for 3.
I have Hunter for 5, and Reek for 4.

Most of my players are signed for 2-3 knowing I can re sign a couple guys in each of those years, plus match in FA if I really wanted to keep someone. I made a point to play the FA market hard in L2 vs how I handled L1.

Im trying to build the team differently in both leagues.

It's awesome that my team will likely pick top 3. It's not the least talented roster but there are some obvious holes. I either get Bosa or AJ Brown.

TambaBerry 01-09-2020 08:34 AM

i think free agency should change. It should be a silent bidding thing, have a set amount of time to bid on guys but keep the bids private and then when the time is up whoever has the highest bid gets him. Then you can move onto round two of it doing the same thing. I am being petty as **** now because ive had multiple guys with a few hours left get bid on again and again so im doing it too now

DJ's left nut 01-09-2020 08:44 AM

What I've always found kinda frustrating (since the beginning really) is that I'll go digging through 200 damn players to find 3 that are sliding under the radar, put a bid in on them (when they're sitting there with no bids after 3 days), and then a couple other guys see them, research them and drive them up on me within a couple hours of my bid.

Kinda sucks being someone else's scouting service...

agree with this I did come in late this year i didnt have time to go through free agents until about two days in, in this league

wheeler08 01-09-2020 08:57 AM

Yea this free agency is whack. In the very least, once a player is bid on, the clock never resets. That reset for 3 days drives me crazy. I have no patience.

Ultimately I think the answer is that this is all kinda one-off stuff. Remember, FA going forward trickles out throughout the off-season so strategic bidding will be FAR more critical (and it won't come with the benefit of hindsight).

The sim is being used in a way it just isn't designed for right now. It's the perils of beta testing.

And Carlos can still eat dicks. Dude's blowing me out of the water on backup DTs now. FFS, Dan Snyder - you plan on signing everyone?
