Good luck to all in 25 season, so far the Jets have me dazed & confused, thought they would compete well this season but guess not.

sounds like it is 4.4 version fault for that Grandad

You are still my bet for AFC conference game

It shouldnt be, Ive done real well with the 4.4 version in other leagues, and winning the LC in Rivals, which in now in 4.5 and in L35 last night, after screwing up the roster about as bad as possible before the game. This situation with the Jets is really different, especially having the defense get thrashed in the second game vs vcr's Houston. Both first games have had terrible performance by the offense, will be focusing the attn on improving that first. cheers

Thanks Chari, but I wouldnt bet the farm on that one, lol. If I dont figure out whats wrong real quick, we will be lucky to make the playoffs. My 90 rater QB, Granger is sitting with a 42.1 qbr, which would not surprise me if we were in 4.5, but not in 4.4. He finished with a 102.5 rating last season, so that is a real big head scratcher. He threw 7 picks in the last game. That is a first for me, never had a 7 pick game by a QB before. QBs are throwing more picks in 4.5, but had not seen that in 4.4

GG Bills/Beav, not a bad outcome/performance for the Jets considering the previous blowout loss, hopefully the improvement will continue. cheers

well now the jets are in run for nb1 pick... losing the best coach isn't something you recover from
; )

then maybe each league that has 4.4 version is different from each other





well they could recover if they got lets say Gustoon

GG Browns/Rat, very ugly 1st half for us, but at least we kept it from being a blowout. Your run game went through us and around us. Will be doing an intense review and adjustment of both the Bronco offensive & defensive structure and game plan after that result. Had 3 "doubtful" injuries to the offense on top.

punisher:

I think its probably more related to a combination of roster makeup (ratings/attributes of the players), play selection, and luck (sim/rolls), especially for the offense in both 4.4 & 4.5. You can have a very good, 90+ rated QB, but he wont make much of a difference if he does not have a receiving group that can get open quickly and RBs that are fast and are good receivers along with an OL that protects well. QBs that have to hold the ball longer in the decision making process will get hurried/sacked and will also affect the pass if they get it off under duress. Ive noticed that there are more interceptions from that situation in 4.4. The play selection, player matchups. and the sim/rolls, are what really determine outcome, in any of the game versions. When it comes to the players ability, its not all "cut and dried", there are exceptions, including players with average or below average ratings and atts that play at a much higher level, and vice versa - high raters that do not perform at what you would expect.
