I've tried default and custom and both ended with the same results. What does sliders have to do with sim stats though?

Haven't tried that.

Yes I was.

Coaching sliders are not something everyone wants to have to do in an off-line franchise. (since you gotta controll every team.)

But hey, if having less rushing totals is that important to you... Then thats the way.

Personally? I dont care, so some RB's will have over 2K yards... It's lame, but whatever.

-Ok, now since I'm a 360 user I gues I'm going to continue not playing this game. Woohoo.

No.

It's an impressions thread. Post your impressions. If people don't want to read 'em, they can skip 'em.

But that back and forth garbage that went on the first 10 pages isn't going to fly again.

I was talking gameplay.

Just had a new animation trigger. Cutler was throwing a deep corner route to Iglesias who was wide open (THANKS LIONS DB's!). Ko Simpson closes in and arrives the same time as the ball, he pulls the receivers arm down as his momentum swings his lower body around and pulls the reciever back with him. Best way i can descibe it is a pendulum effect with Simpson's lower body as he hits Iglesias. Pass was incomplete.

But you said... whatever. So now we discuss here about simmed franchise rushing stats? Sounds good to me.

I've only skimmed through this thread and haven't installed the patch yet. I'm guessing I should just stick with what i have an not bother with this patch.
I can't believe I waited months for this.....

Didn't EA sim at all and notice these problems? jeeez

Its beyond frustrating.

First Year Simmed:

Defense:

17 players over 100 tackles highest was 124 - last year 08 highest was 154 and there was 30 players over 100 tackes

4 players over 20 sacks with the leader J.Allen @24 - last year there was only 1 player over 20 sacks

46 players with 10+ sacks - last year 08 there were 12 in the NFL

INTs look good

Forced Fumbles look good

OFFENSE

O-line - pancake leader was 17

O-line - most sacks allowed was 23 - two over 20

receiving catches - (4) 100 reception receivers all WR high of 114 - NFL 08 was 3 over 100 high of 115

Receiving yards - 16 receivers over 1k yards - NFL 08 had 22

Receiving TD's - high of 17 with 11 of 10+ tds - NFL 08 high was 12 with only 5 with 10+ td's

Rushing yards - (1) 2k plus yard runner - NFL 08 none

Rushing yards - (10) 1.5k plus yard runner - NFL 08 only 3

Rushing yard - (25) 1k plus yards - NFL 08 only 16

Rushing td's - (13) with 10+ high of 17 - NFL 08 8 with 10+ high of 18

Passing yards - (6) 4k+ passers - NFL 6

Passing TDs - (8) over 30 tds high of 36 - NFL 08 (3) over 30 tds with a high of 34

INJURIES

hardly any offensive skilled position - QBs, HBs, WRs, TEs
LOTS of lineman injured - 11 out for the season - TO THE POINT THERE IS NO CENTERS IN FREE AGENCY ONE RIGHT GUARD AND THREE LEFT GUARDS
Does that sound familiar?
On defense there was 15 players out for the season but few out for short periods of time.
