Playing as an Offensive Coordinator

[pdiehm]

I'm starting to think this is a waste of time.

Sure it's fun, but...super sim issues, just like the last 3 years still exist. Last 6 drives by Stanford:

97 yards 2 plays :18
71 yards 1 play :07
93 yards 2 plays :18
91 yards 3 plays :37
55 yards 1 play :07
77 yards 3 plays : 28

Would maxing out the defensive sliders for my team fix this?

Lol I just deal with it. You never get close against amazing teams as sucky teams, but against teams near you're level you'll get closer.

That is terrible. 2 play drives?

My defense has never had a game like that....ever. Even when I was with Memphis

Yeah I've never seen it. I just thought being OC was boring

On the + side, starting as an OC makes the coaching career fantasy work and the games go by much faster. On the negative side you feel helpless against the opponent because some games your D coughs up points every drive.

I scout my opponent and set my coaching D sliders before each game based on the opponents strength in running and passing. Don't know though if that affects the sim at all. In game, if my D sucks, I'll try re-setting the D gameplan to be more aggressive or conservative, but again don't know if that affects the sim.

Playing as OC at Hawai'i and I swear if I could find his office I'd wring the DC's neck.

I changed the defensive sliders to 75...it works better, though I just gave up 62 pts to USC (using Colorado) and 663 yards.
