Am I in? Am I in? Am I in?

If I lose to the no talent Boston Irish I'm switching to the AC because there is absolutely no hope in the OSFL.

No cohesion, roster strength is next to bottom for every position, near the bottom on offense for running and passing, can't stop the run. The only thing I see is a top tier pass defense that forces a lot of turnovers as they are #1 in TO's. Is that the key to this game? Just get a few good DB's?

Amazing yet frustrating to see. No offense Nutah, you are amazing at this game. I just thought FOF 7 would be different.

The good news is turnovers aren't consistent from season to season, so perhaps this is Boston's flash in the pan.

But it's Nuts, so I'm sure he's maximizing his team while I get 75% out of mine.

Haha! I think the pick sixes play a good deal into it. It's won us several games this year and they got jacked up in FOF7.

The record is fluky though, I mean, look at all the games we were lucky to win. I also can't believe they gave us such a low roster rating. It's not that bad, is it?

The way I see it -- sure, QB and RB are kind of lacking, although they aren't nothing. The 2 CBs and 2 Ss are outstanding, and there's a few solid reserve corners besides. The LBs have solid OVR. The DL has a number of nice pass rushers, including one or two great ones. The OL is strong across the board in pass blocking (we're starting a C at guard, and a G at tackle). ST is covered across the board -- kicking, punting, kickoffs, KR, PR, and ST coverage. If I could redo our offseason I'd get Cary Money back and upgrade QB & cohesion, as well as a better RB from somewhere, but those are just a couple weaknesses on an OK team otherwise.

It's been a fun season, though. I don't think defense would've won this much in 2k7!

Anyways, GL Matt!

I've always thought roster ratings were BS. I'm not even sure where I am right now, but I used to almost always be towards the bottom even though I had a good roster and was winning games.

You will see when a 38/38 CB asked for a $14 M per year extension....

Gg rando. I spent a good half hour working on a game plan to stop that evil RB of yours. Limited him to around 150 yds = win. Literally, apparently.
