    Amen. While I expected us to take a significant step back this year (our DBs were geared specifically for FOF2k4 coverages and we lost a good number of significant contributors), I am still insanely frustrated by the game planning because I feel like I have MUCH less control over defensive game planning than I did under FOF2k4.

      one of the things i struggle with is knowing which lever to pull to make changes...i understand football too well which is probably the difficulty with FOF...it just doesnt translate straight across...

      i ended up going back to the AI and that worked very poorly...

        I think you're almost better off not knowing anything about football when trying to play this game.

            Au Contrair. The fact that I have no ability to implement my immense knowledge of the football battle into FOF is the only reason I don't have 5 titles.

            But for real, I cringe everytime I see Sandstrom is one of the 3 men blitzing on a given play. My defense is the best against the run though with a multitude of interceptions so I can't complain. I also can't pretend to understand it.

There is way to many fucking options and what used to take a couple hours a week isn't even scratching the surface. Untill I learn what the hell I am doing I am going to continue to suck. The game so far seems to be alot more forgiving when it comes to injuries. Usually by this time I have 4-5 starters injured.
              Regardless, good game Cring. I have awalys had problems with your team anyway, and with most of my team getting older now I need to start revamping some of the key positions anyway. I still hope to rebound and make the playoffs but it's not looking good.
              I love all the new options. . still learning them. . and sometimes find myself wishing for more. . I think I am taking to this system better than I did the old one. 2K4 had a steep learning curve, and I could never get the game to do exactly what I wanted. 2K7 is closer to what I am looking for. Still wish I could manage that two minute offense. . .but Sammy has an 11 in it, so what do I expect?

                Too much for me. I like GMing more then gameplanning though.
                I also thought I had 2k4s passing down. Then this switch killed any knowledge I had of gameplanning.

                  Ugh. Our first two drives were good but netted zero points. Not to mention Fogarty threw one pick for a TD going the other way.

                    Damn its been a weird weekend! Just got in and my internet has been down the past couple of days. Tropical storm erin went through here saturday night drenching us with over 10 inches of rain. Crazy shit that it reintensified over Oklahoma.

                    Anyway GG kobeck! Was surprised we'd jump out to a lead like that. Got real worried with opie slinging it around like that in the 2nd half. Might have been real interesting if you had gotten a fumble back here or there and not thrown that pick...

                      When did BK start living in Oklahoma? Is this a recent thing or have I been as high as him for 3 years?

                          May I ask why? Just curious why Oklahoma would be someone's choice of places to live. Some hot chicks around Norman, and a stripper in Tulsa I will love for ever, but other then that I have never been much of a fan of the state.

                              Wow, I thought you were on the west coast. Sorry to put down you state like that, nothing personal. I just have never been very attracted to it. I know many people don't like where I live....

                                Budha, much much earlier in my life, I had a 3+ month stint in Tulsa where I fell in love with Lake Keystone. Oklahoma is ok by me.

                                Cring, I also have good memories of a very nice vacation on a lake near Hot Springs. I can't remember its name. Little Rock is pretty nice too. But then again, I am pretty adjustable to just about anywhere.
