It's too much to ask people to operate on the honor code!

It's too much to ask people to operate on the honor code!

Why would it cost me $8.89M to tag my RT Stewart, yet cost me $7.04M to tag either of my other RTs???
Do I not understand something or is this a bug?

it's impossible to enforce anything. just don't do it. if a play is designed that way by the game then fine
Ok. I almost never do it but when I do drop a linemen I always blitz a backer. Just trying to give a different look. Always works against Bob.
You know whats more broken than the read option? People with mobile QBs who call deep bombs and then scramble for 30 yards because there's no one within 20 yards of the line of scrimmage.
I had more people break 20+ yard runs with their QBs on plays like this than I had all season with designed runs for Russell Wilson.
Edit: Aside from me and Crow who in this league even runs the read option? I played the Phins and Redskins and neither called read option plays against me. Ditto the 49ers. Trasher came out in the pistol more than anyone else I've played.

No one is saying you can't drop a lineman, but what I've seen by at least three different players, and it's what the money players do as well, is they drop 10 and put their best pass rusher at LE since they shed quicker on that side. So you can get your opponent to hold on to it a bit longer and if his guards are slow and don't help you'll get sacked.
I already told FMT one of the counters to try and beat it, but if you set it up right it can be tough to pass on. All FMT is saying is rush 3, not you need 3 DL. Contain is alright too I'm guessing.

Also I'm interested in tagging and trading my probowl RT Stewart. I know lots of you have RT problems, interested in blocking TEs, WRs, Ks, and Picks.
He did say specifically that three men on the line must rush. The Packers have two formations where 1 person in on the line!

Nah man Vick does this IRL you need to learn to adapt.
Good point. Read option is never run in real life!
As long as you're bringing LBs, no one is going to say a word. It's this max coverage garbage with everyone dropping except the broken LE spot that's an issue.
New rule, the only fucking rule we need, DON'T BE A CUNT.

yes i suppose 3 rushers period would suffice not necessarily on the line. i'll have luke update the OP once he's around but unless the play is designed otherwise, rush 3 people per play.
As long as you only mean in Madden. I refuse to stop being a cunt in this thread. I guess I'm a retard because when I do drop a guy it's always either the left end or LOLB! I need to watch more cheater videos or play with Soka more.

I'm done with my resignings. They did not go as planned. There will be a probowl RT hitting FA, dude is awesome to run behind. My younger guy is better in everything but has something like 10 less strength and wanted half the money. Forgot you can only tag one person per season >.<

league is vancin' in 1 hour to the first part of free agency so get any of the resigns you want in now!
Well it makes sense to get a guy over the TE if you're blitzing to stop a quick throw. Combo him with man and the DE dropping.
Right. When people call 4 verts and wait until everyone takes off to run for an easy 20 yards that's fine and I just need to adjust. When I call designed runs that don't even work half the time because user line backer play fucks up blocking AI that means we need to ban the read option.

I guess I should have italicized that post.

as i said, i don't have any issue with the read option myself. just asking a question, no need to get all worked up about it at this point!
"An "exclusive" franchise player must be offered a one-year contract for an amount no less than the average of the top five salaries at the player's position as of a date in April of the current year in which the tag will apply, or 120 percent of the player's previous year's salary, whichever is greater."
I'm guessing he already had a pretty solid salary last year? Not many people know about the 120% clause of the franchise tag, as it gets applied far less frequently than the average of the top 5 salaries.
I'm calling 4 verts and running with Vick on every play against you. Be prepared!

120% of his previous salary not of what the franchise tag would be otherwise

the NEW, OFFICIAL league off-season schedule!
Also, for all you draft trader deadbeats who want to game the system, DRAFT "DAY" OFFICIALLY OPENS ONCE FREE AGENCY IS DONE. THAT'S RIGHT! ONCE STAGE 7 BEGINS ON WEDNESDAY, YOU CAN TRADE AWAY TO YOUR HEARTS CONTENT WITH ONLY YOUR CONSCIENCE AND THE SALARY CAP AS YOUR GUIDE! NO MORE BEING HELD DOWN BY A CORRUPT COMMISSIONER!

no psycho for you buddy!
I'm really hoping Soka is able to make it happen in his last year with the league.

None of those guys are good enough to where I don't want to see the FAs first. I am interested though.

post when you're done bidding so maybe we could advance earlier. not that it matters overall but it'd be nice to quickly get to the next step so we could at least scout. don't think i'll be able to make the draft but just incase i can i want to have it done!
