second....I'd love for somebody to sit here with me and explain to me why my opponents are always wide open on several spots on the field....yet I can't find a single guy open when I have the ball. I'm being serious here. I wish somebody was sitting right next to me when he just threw that touchdown. I picked a pass defense and his guy literally could have made a sandwich before making the catch.

I don't think you could cover the alcohol bill on how much I would need to drink while explaining it in person :biggrin:

But I was like you once. I really was. But the understanding came from being pass happy teams (Texas Tech & SMU) and trying out different route combos. There was a website that really helped me (last year), but for the life of me I can't remember which site and that stuff didn't click until this year. It explained route combos, where there are certain combos that one route will be open with man coverage and the other in zone coverage.

But in playing against you, there were WR that were open. You just didn't recognize it, and that is the first key. Knowing where to look for open WRs at set times.

The best way to get better is going into practice mode. Pick a pass play and for the defense go to the formation you mainly see and pick 'random play' You run the same play until you see different coverages and start seeing the open receiver. This becomes a 'money' play. You do that for multiple plays and all of the sudden you don't have one 'money' play but you have 10.

I'm not talking so much about my passing game because I can't read defenses for shit and I know that. But when I pick a play like cover 3, I would hope that there isn't a man running a post pattern wide open in the end zone. What is that shit....and why does it continually happen?

Oh, you meant defensively... One reason I play as a safety is to cover the holes left open by zones and to defend 'money' pass routes.

Wood/BN - How many guys still need to get their stuff done? I know I need to get my stuff done, but not sure if I will have time. Just want to know if there are only a handful of guys that I should make time to get my stuff done tonight.

I still have to play Iowa after I do position changes in your league. I think that I did my recruiting last night.

My recruiting is going to be a bitch when I actually do it, Got tons of strategy to figure out visits I have schedule and maybe reschedule before I play my game. Smooth is really starting to piss me off. That bastard came out of no-where to get a soft verbal from my future stud starting HB. I thought my main competition was Wood and we share the same visit week so thought I was safe. FUCK YOU SMOOTH, don't you have a ton of HBs already??? I just really have to pray he doesn't hard commit after this week and get him to Eugene in Week 8 as planned.
