Things about FOF I hate

Leonard Little has been unreal. His stats for two years has been 104 tackles, 30.5 sacks, and 79 hurries, all with St. Louis.

Enter 2007. No team goes after him in FA and he ends up signing with San Diego for $750,000. Are you kidding me? Now he's the starting LDE for SD and their 4 year stud sits the bench as the starting RDE has a lower overall rating, but he's a RDE, so he starts??

Blah..... I hate that. Meanwhile there is a team that has $29 in cap room as well as several teams that have high cap room.

Goofy....

I would like to see a better Franchise and restricted free agents process. Or, more like a correct Franchise and Restricted Free agent process.

In the NFL just because somone is a restricted free agent does not prevent other teams form going after that player.

If he has 0 kills then it is definitely not realistic.

I wonder if a good challenge would be to play as the only human coach in a multiplayer league, then the only thing you do for the other teams is to set that one number about using players out of position to 0.

I would honestly be giddy with a FOF 2005 that has some AI enhancements or reworkings. The game is solid in most areas, but things like this get me out of the "immersion" part of the game. I play multiplayer, but I still love to play solo as well.

Oh well, now the best DE the last two years gets paid the league minimum, good for you San Diego. Their young backup DE will get ticked at the lack of playing time and maybe come over to the Cardinals.

1. Enhanced AI for CPU controlled teams.
2. 2d view when watching games.

Little probably killed one of the other players on the team while drunk driving.

I think that would affect the cohesion rating, right?

I'm not so sure about this. Perhaps with better implementation it would work, but in TPF, the RFA process proved to be more tedious than anything else. FOF's isn't as realistic, but it plays much, much better, considering that the vast majority of RFA signings are of marginal players.

Hey Jason Hanson and your 80-80 ratings and All league 2nd team last year. Glad you're in free agency, seeing how you're the 2nd best kicker in the league and all. Nobody would want you.. at least not for $1,140,000.

I would snap him up, but I have a good kicker who just signed a 3 year deal.

Ughhh!!
