Bell also had over 1900 yds rushing and 20 tds. Looking at the league schedule, almost all of the games were shootouts or blowouts, rarely were there any close, low scoring games. They were 35-32, 47-40, etc... I know offense is king right now but most of these teams are not capable of putting up numbers like that every week. Ah well, it's a fun game, I just really hope they get the cfm bugs straightened out. I think I'll leave it alone until then. Sent from my VS985 4G using Tapatalk

Hey GOBLUE_08,

Couple questions about your season, because I got very different results in mine.
1. Are you playing ONLINE CFM or OFFLINE (I played Offline)
2. Did you do anything to sliders or anything
3. What kind of clock settings are you using for games?

I found the exact opposite in my franchise. As expected my team (clevland browns) stats offensively were about what I expected. However the rest of the teams, especially the pass first offenses. Pitt, Denver, GB, etc. were seriously lacking.

I believe I had exactly 2 4,000 yard passers on the entire season. No one even got near 4,500 yards or 40 tds.

I'm wondering what the difference is from both our results.

Curious as to who you're backup RB is?

I started my franchise last night as the Titans. The first thing I did was make a few trades in the preseason after evaluating my team. I released a few high priced veterans as well. The trades listed below aren't 100% accurate as I can't for sure remember all of the moving pieces but for the most part are accurate.

Traded Perrish Cox and a 3rd round pick to the Lions for Ameer Abdullah.
Traded away Delanie Walker for a 3rd round pick(can't remember the team).
Traded a 4th round pick to the Redskins for TE Niles Paul.
Traded a 7th round pick to the Eagles for Tebow(needed a 3rd stringer as Whithurst will be cut as he has a high cap number, and possibly trading Mettenberger)
The Vikings put Josh Robinson(CB) on the block so I offered my 2017 4th which was accepted.

Week 1 we were able to secure a come from behind victory against the Bucs 28-23. This game saw both rookie QB's go conservative for the most part. Winston got 64 of his yards.

Mariota: 17/21 173 yds TD
Winston: 17/21 232 yds, 2 TD, 2 INT

Abdullah: 16 att, 68 yds, 3 TD
Martin: 11 att, 51 yds, TD


Week 2 was an entirely different story. I was blown out 45-9. Manziel completely dismantled me 24/25 with 344 yards and 3 touchdowns. Mariotta had such a poor showing, Mettenberger played part of the 3rd and all of the 4th.

Mariotta: 15/24 139 yards, 1 TD, 2 INT
Mettenberger: 11/17, 106 yards,

Abdullah: 15 att, 26 yards
Isaiah Crowell(CLE): 19 att, 47 yards, 1 TD
Terrance West(CLE): 8 att, 125 yards, 2 TD

Week 3 was a bit more competitive, however I ended up losing on a field goal with 3 seconds remaining.

Luck(IND): 21/30 233 yds, TD, INT
Mariota: 21/31 278 yds, TD, 2 INT

Gore(IND): 28 att, 101 yds, TD
Herron(IND): 6 att, 21 yds
Abdullah: 12 att, 50 yds

Thankfully I had a bye week 4 to regroup. I play the 3-0 Bills next. I am hoping to slow down some QB's in the next few games as I continue to learn all of the new controls.

Has anyone had any issues with accelerated clock? In both my online franchises they don't work
