DJ--

thanks for your feedback. Expanded and more detailed pbp is planned in the near future. We have two requirements for any such expansion:

1) the model is based on measurable statistics of actual NFL play
2) the information provided must be relevant to the game model

Therefor the level of detail in the pbp must be supported by the level if detail in the
model which in turn must be supported by available data from the NFL. This may ultimately limit the amount if detail that can be provided in the pbp. For passing plays we should be able to approach what you suggested. For running plays at present ther is a lack of data to support an accurate simulation at quite that level of granularity. We will provide more data, but at some point we'll hit a limit.
