In my game in beta 87, Chicago vs Indy, I had my starter run for 326 yrs on 16 carries. I'm not sure if it's a bug as I've only looked at the box score (still at work), but it seems really high on such a small amount of carries.
This was touched on prior to the release of the newest code. Most teams had difficulty stopping the the run but few did ok.
In mfn one when the top rushing team met the top rushing defense (in the big game) this was the result for the top rushing offense.
Net Rushing Yards 258
- Rushing Attempts 46
- Yards Per Rush 5.61
With a long of only 17 yards you can see it is way too easy to get those smaller yet formidable chunks of yards. No matter how tuned the defense is. Nfl running is pick pick boom.....not this consistent jumble of garbage. Still, finding the fine line of play abuse vs, the pass has led us to this point.
Blocking plays a big partm...so the the defenders and play call from both sides, but the ease of getting to the second level is ridiculous .
LBS not in blitz mode sit back and wait for O linemen to engage. Frozen like deer in headlight waiting to get pummeled be a mack truck. By the e ND of the game some dline are cracking through due to abuse but I have had teams run the same play 20 plus times and no difference is the result . 5 to 7 yard gains.
RBs running right through blocked players (and not around them) is at an all time high. If fast guys had to bounce it out side maybe something would be different .
A good dline will help, but a strong oline and fast back will do even better . 20 speed backs still stink, but a 70 does ok now.
Just look at how long blocks are held on kick returns.....also I wish , and have mentioned it for years , is run blocks are real too static. No stalk blocks , no movement when players are locked up . At least they should engaged then unengaged repeatedly just to get a little flow.
Something is wrong with strength / break tackle also....I just had a QB get wrapped up for a sack only to have him break the tackle , then stand there and read coverage only to get sacked and gain by the same defender , but amazingly to have him break yet another tackle to read coverage again and make a 40 yard throw down feild for a first . The qb had 91 strength and the oline held the other 3 pass rushers the whole time .
