One of my biggest pet peaves with the FOF engine is long offensive fumble recoveries for TDs. I can't recall any fumble recovery for a TD over 10 yards by an offensive player in the NFL. Especially the 50+ yards variety.

I wonder if the engine treats the fumble recovery distance as the same for offensive and defensive players.

I don't know if Jim can look at this, but it was one of those freaky plays that happens way to often in FOF compared to the NFL.

dola.

I just checked my most recent season and there were 13 Fumble Returns for TD by offensive players. While some of these could've been on special teams, I think it happens way too much.

I just lost a game on the last drive of the game because they had a offensive fumble recovery for a 79 yard Td.

This does seem a bit too high, but not a big deal to me...

FWIW I just finished a season and there were 6 offensive FReTD's.

My biggest pet peave is that it seems like every "stop for no gain" is by a CB, while at the end of a run where "he's into the secondary" is usually tackled by a DT...

Since this has become a random pet peeves thread - has anyone ever seen a pass interference penalty? They seem incredibly rare. Obviously, in the NFL, pass interference penalties have huge significance and occasionally occur multiple times on a single drive.

Yeah, my team is committing them all the time. No joking.
