Vision and agility. Need to be able to see who to block, and quickly shift over to block them. Speed is not as important becuase you aren't running to make the block.What level are you at now?

We really need you and will offer a bunch of cash to your owner to get u tonight.

Yes, but new equipment is much more expensive when you buy upgraded stuff at level 8, then 16, so on.What's your player name? Do you have a team?

Yeah, I joined a team. Figure I'll soil someone else for a season while I figure this out before soiling a FBG team.

hey....what's up with the Detroit FBGs? Almost the whole team boosted but lost to a vastly inferior team...

I broke down last night and created two Level 4 LBs, Furious Jones and Notorious Jones. They're the angrier and meaner step-brothers of my two WRs, Loquacious Jones and Gregarious Jones. Furious is strong. Notorious is fast.They've all got teams for now.

That's a shocker right there.Although it's kinda funny that the 'star RB" who left the championship team is the one bringing it up.

it's not like I left for more money...I joined my friend's team. just because I'm not on the team anymore doesn't mean I don't want them to win.....

Okay fineright.Maybe I wasn't referring to you.
..1/2 was for you, but the other 1/2 was for the rest of the Detroit FBG's.There was a lot of bragging last season...and rightly so. You guys were great. Undefeated.But now, nothing. Not even a "Dang, how did that happen?"BTW...how did Desroches do in game 1?

fine... W 13-12 (17 Rush, 81.5yds (4.8 YPC); 2 Rec, 2yds; 1 TD)That was before I boosted though so hopefully stats will be better next game.Okay fineright.Maybe I wasn't referring to you.

I came in here to revel in the misery of their loss and maybe gloat a little as I have two guys on the NJ Generals, but they're not making that much fun.Okay fineright.Maybe I wasn't referring to you.

I'm still not sure how we lost that one. I think *maybe* it was our stamina, but I'm not even confident in that.Okay fineright.Maybe I wasn't referring to you...1/2 was for you, but the other 1/2 was for the rest of the Detroit FBG's.There was a lot of bragging last season...and rightly so.

I know exactly what happened to Det, but talking about it and providing info for our opponents isn't the best course of action. I will show you this:

These were all FROM ONE HALF. Note how far off the WR the CB was playing, the fact that he had 8 tackles with only two passes defended, the fact they threw for 275 yards, and their #1 WR who was matched most of the game against this CB had 18 catches for 172.5 yards.
It is not difficult to see what the problem was.

I have 5 points to spend on star Defensive Tackle Abraham Capella. Any ideas from my teammates or other folks who are playing?
Strength - 39.4
Speed - 23.88
Agility - 29.02
Jumping - 9.05
Stamina - 30.44
Vision - 14.8
Confidence - 17.34
Tackling - 31
Tree:
Pass Rushing - 3,5,2,3,2
Run Stuffer - 5, 5, 2, 2, 1
I'm thinking 3 to Strength and 2 to either Confidence or Agility
Thoughts?

Our D couldn't get off the field because of this, our O was forced to throw because we got behind (when we are a running team), we had two INTs, we turned it over on downs inside their 10 and finished the game inside their red zone.

Our first loss. I am confident if this one small thing was corrected and the game was re-run 10 times we would win all 10.

If I were you, I'd train vision and confidence since they are lower, and use your points to keep pumping up the higher skills.Maybe 3 to strength, 1 to Agility, and 1 to Tackling.

Are we still a running team though?We may need to pass a bit more. That might keep our top WR happier too.Thomas D is sorely missed.
The Duff Man
Footballguy
We didn't run it as well as we had, which is expected when we had to replace our #1 RB. While that might hurt us in other games, and we will have to adjust strategy accordingly, I don't think it had any bearing on this game where we were the superior team on paper.One of our strengths has been wearing down opponents and running like crazy in the second half. We averaged 4.1 ypc in the 3rd quarter, then were forced to abandon the run in much of the 4th because we were behind, which is not a position we have been in before.

How much does equipment upgrades cost at lvl 16? I'm lvl 11 now so I expect i'll need to start saving. That said, you get to a point where training at Intense has no value at all. I just stay on realxed and get healthy for the next game. Injuries may play a part to this season as well.

$12,500 per equipment at Lvl 16, $50K total

Do we have money for bonuses to help w/ this?When my guys hit level 16, I'll let you know how much cash they have on hand, so if I'm like 20K short or whatever. That way you don't have to give everyone 50K.Most of my guys are training on relaxed now, no matter what.

Yes, I can earmark $1M or a little more for this so everyone who gets there can bump them up. We can discuss on the forum board if this makes sense, at some point we might be better off using the $ on seats than an extra +1 on equipment. When you are level 16 your stats are so high that +1 might not make a difference at all in how you perform.

How much energy did you leave the first game with? I would have looked at stamina first.

I would love to get one of my guys on another FBG team. I have a RB that is the backup on our team. he is level 11 and I would trade him to you guys for a backup to take his place.
