Ok, week 10 simulations are all complete and week 11 is scheduled for Tuesday.
I also tweaked things so if a partial simulation happens again, I can run the same command and complete the sims without delay. |

Losing 58-51 in overtime the same way NE beat us in the afc title game, where we never got the ball sucked big time.
I couldn’t stop the run... seem familiar?

Injuries are starting to take a toll, as we lose our 3rd game of the year. Ran up against a stout defense and lost by 6, 26-21.
Didn't score the entire 2nd half, except the opening drive that took 3 plays. ![]() |

Too bad I started out 0-6. I am on a 4-1 run since then but even if I were to win out (unlikely) I doubt I would make the playoffs.

Reading through it, I thought the same thing, "Whoever gets the ball is gonna win".....I'm wondering if the onside kick recovery rate isn't too high though. That's the third successful one against my team so far.

The odds are figured under old rules, so yes it is too high. Will update soon.

And it's only gonna get worse as my schedule gets damn tough (.600 average winning percentage from here out). By week 16 I'm missing HB1, CB1, CB2, FS, LG, DT1, WLB, WR2 and WR4. At 9-2 I should only need 2 more wins to secure a playoff spot but man, with injuries piling up and the schedule looking brutal, I'll be pretty pleased w/ a 2-3 finish. I damn near gacked this last game against a 1-9 Texarkana squad. I was down 21-9 midway through the 3rd, came back to take a 25-21 lead, immediately gave up a TD to fall down 28-25 w/ 2 minutes left. Dak let a 2-minute drive and I had a 32-28 lead w/ 38 seconds left only to give up a long kick return and a couple plays later committed a personal foul that allowed a free play at my 10 yard line. Fortunately they came up one play short and I sneaked out of there with a victory I absolutely HAD to have. I can't go losing games like that when I know the stretch run will be brutal. You've got an awfully good shot at passing me for that division crown, even sitting a game back. Fortunately I'll have CB1 and my Will backer for our game in week 15. I'm a little nervous about holding off the Anarchy, to be honest.

We both returned a kick for a td too! Our Free Agents also do a really good job against our special teams.. I don’t know if that’s a bug.

League 2
Vancouver's holding steady @ 6-5. I'm not scoring a lot but I'm not giving up a lot of points either. VVs Defense have stayed in the top 5 all year. Not a full roster and $260 to carry over to next year, woohoo. Rainman, sure hope to take your lunch money next, lol, but I doubt my team of street free agents will be much of a battle.

I have to tell you, I was nervous going into the game. Your team doesn't have apparent weaknesses. At the half, the only thing that had gone my way was a lucky blocked punt. Things opened up for me in the second half, and my defense played a heck of a game.

Gg rtmike. You sacked me 13x ...
Your defense was ridiculous. 3 of my guards / tackles are hurt but no excuse. Great gameplan.
