Preseason 1 & 2 discussion.

[Cringer]

Preseason blows.

[Cringer]

oh, and i lost my backup safety for a long time. long enough for the IR i guess....

[roadrash]

Lost another rookie for most of the season. . at least he isn't a 1st round franchise WR like last year though. . . just my SLB of the future. . no big deal

If he was your SLB of the future, you must plan on sucking in the future.

I was hoping he would boom in the next two years

I was wondering how Jones would rebound from that injury. I guess this week answers that. He dropped 27 future and 30 current points.

[Jave]

ROFL, I didn't even suit up Ingraham so he would not get injured. He is on the inactive list, so the game did the best it could to fuck with me. He now has "severe headaches" Doughtful, 2 weeks.
Not that I was going to suit him up at all, it just shows you this game has it in for me!

[Cringer]

I think tat was show a while ago Jave.

For future season we need to be careful about executing trades between preseason weeks after moves are made. I think the trades made the AI take over and move players and I ended up with a stud CB that shouldve been inactive out a few weeks.

Not a big deal but something to watch for in future seasons. Running two weeks in one swoop can result in a few glitches like that.

Lets roll to regular season.

I am not sure what you are saying you think caused this. There were no trades put through between weeks 1 and 2. One was run right after the other.

I will tell you what did cause it though.

Backfield Members (Running Backs, Fullbacks): 4
Offensive Linemen (Centers, Guards, Tackles): 8
Defensive Linemen (Defensive Ends and Defensive Tackles): 6 (5 if you play a 3-4 defense)
Linebackers (Inside and Outside): 5 (6 if you play a 3-4 defense)
Secondary (Cornerbacks and Safeties): 7

You only had 5 total d-linemen active in your export, while running a 4-3 defense. The AI had to make adjustments, in which case one adjustment can lead to more.

[Kobeck]

I think I had the Mules down to 46, but I know I forgot about the group numbers. So as you stated one adjustment leads to another.

At least I remembered to cut to 59 so I could sign my rookie TC holdout.

Only a couple of overall current improvements and only got 3 probables for a total of 5 weeks. Good opening week.

Need to look at the rushing in this game as the Mules FO is considering an unorthodox backfield for the season

WR's?

Or Ash and Monroe?

Your right about not being a big deal. You team sucks anyway.

[Cringer]

Actually it is not a big deal because it was a mistake with his roster, not simming two weeks in a row. 8)

[roadrash]

I can't believe I forgot to sign 2 O-lineman in two FA stages in a row. . .I hope this mistake doesn't come back to haunt me. . .

Guess my worry over the injuries to my D had all my attention.
