Damn, I still have to sign Veldheer, Houston, DHB, Ford, and Reece. Probably won't sign DHB. I built him up to be serviceable, so look for him in FA! Ford is strictly a return guy, but I think I'll keep him if he's not asking for a fortune.

The website isn't prompting me that I need to resign anyone yet. Can that happen at any point in the year? I wish I could see a list of guys on my team with contracts expiring. I need to figure out if I can afford a certain player. >_>

Pretty sure I saw this guy making BIG plays in that playoff game against Smokester.

You can go do it in-game at any time by going to More -> Personnel -> re-sign players.

You'll eventually be prompted in the My Actions section, but you don't have to wait

He's really good. That wasn't even a good game for him. :(

well i would say gg AT but i know you are going to be salty about that one and rightfully so. pwill went on another tear.... this time with 3 FF's, 2 of them in the 4th quarter!

my guys just couldn't get open for most of the game. i threw one pick because i accidentally tapped the A button and it just fluttered into the arms of a couple giants. i second guessed myself on the throw, should've just taken the sack.... that cost me 6 points cause AT got 3 before the half thanks to the pick.

and as ridiculous as pwill was, JPP was about as ridiculous. 4 sacks. there was nothing i could do. basically everytime i dropped back to pass he destroyed my line. he's good but god damn.

both of us dropped a couple int's in the game. AT was using some TE i've never heard of early and it made me adjust some of my playcalling to compensate. i'll be more prepared for this fellow the next time!

didn't have much success running until late. didn't have much success defending the run out of the 3 WR formation. looks like justin smith got paid and now he doesn't want to play as well!

my auto D bails me out again! god bless you pwill

What a dumpy bag of horseshit. I'm up a touchdown, driving late in the fourth and about to make it a two score game. I complete a pass to get a first down inside the 20, when Patrick Willis comes out of nowhere and forces a fumble. 49ers recover of course and drive down the field. I make a big stop on 4th down and force an interception, then begin running some clock with less than 3 minutes left. Call a conservative run play, Patrick "I'm always being controlled by FMT, I swear" Willis forces ANOTHER fumble (his third of the game) and the 49ers recover the ball already inside the red zone. We trade scores in the final minute of the game and go to overtime. The 49ers won the toss and my defense, which had basically been on the field for the final 5-6 minutes of the game, gave up and got did nothing to stop the 49ers offense.

Where's my homefield advantage EA? I pray to you everyday and you gonna do me like this?

I'm not surprised at all. Shits disgusting. He gets more forced fumbles in two games than I get all year. If I'm lucky!

never said i used him exclusively! and one of the FF's in this game i made myself. i control different players depending on my playcall and depending on what my opponent is doing. i controlled pwill quite a bit (hey look at how many catches your RB had! wonder why that was....) but it just so happens on 2 of those ff's i wasn't controlling him.

and i also consider dropped int's to be HFA! i perfectly guessed what you'd do before the half on that out to your TE and that was a pick 6 dropped. i do agree that 2 FF's in the 4th is bullshit though. no arguments there!

Speaking of, I think we should try to keep the jersey numbers in line with what they should be. It could end up getting confusing down the line

Woah on the edit player screen you can change the positions of offensive line men.

You can also change outside line backers and defensive linemen, but only from left to right.

Does that eliminate the stat drop if you switch a tackle to one side or the other?

You can only swap them to other OL spots. I swapped rookie LT Matthew Graham to RT and he was still a 60 OVR, so there's that.

When I was cleaning house this offseason, I noticed that somehow my RT and LT were swapped to each others' positions... And the annoying thing was I couldn't swap them out until I got some backups to take their spots temporarily. Was pretty annoying actually.

What I mean is that if I move Saffold from LT to RT he loses I think 5 total points in RBK, when you move them over, do they not get that stat drop?

It seems like if he is listed at LT and you put him at RT, he loses points. But if you change him to RT and stick him at RT, he'll have his original stats.

So it's just the same as substituting normally on your depth chart. I first noticed that with my LBs long ago.
