My QB sim stats are completely broken, how do I fix this?

Oh yeah that too. And then half of them average like 2.5 YPC or less so it's completely useless

They need to bump up completion % by about 2-4 points for everyone.

I don't have a problem with other stats but I haven't simmed past the first season yet. Raising comp. % though would raise passer ratings quite a bit and would also result in slightly more yards. So that could fix your problems perhaps too.

some seasons are different than others.

I had a season with only 1 4000 yard passer. This year, i'm on track for about 5.

Last year i had only 1 100+ passer. This year on pace for about 5.

Some years are passing years, some years are rushing years.

Sim stats fluctuates.

Exactly,every year will not be the same, Stats are never the same year to year.

Kurt Warner was ranked 10th with 93.2 yet the 10th guy here has a number in the low 80s. In 2008 the 10th ranked was 89.4, which would be 4th ranked on the list I posted. Passing Yards? Only 2 guys reached 4000. 10 did in 2009 and 6 did in 2008. However that's not my biggest complaint (well I have two of them). The first is that the drop-off is insane. 4815 to 4010 to 3685 in 4 spots? With 3685 being the 4th-highest total? 3685 would have been 9th in 2008 and not even sniffed the Top 10 in 2009. My other complaint (and biggest one) is the amount of elite QBs passing for less than (or barely reaching) 200/game. Rivers, Ben, Eli and Palmer are all high-80s, low-90s for rating and they can't even hit 200? I know in 09 Palmer didn't but based on the number of passes that QBs throw in-game hitting 200 should be done automatically, not having the 10th-highest total averaging 205/game The TDs are fine (outside of Stafford, Eli and Young throwing 9), but when coupled with the high INT numbers, they're not. Rivers was 21/21, Brady was 25/21, Peyton was 32/20, Eli was 15/9 (Eli hasn't thrown less than 20 TDs when starting 16 games his entire career). And then how the hell does Brees only toss 4? Plus 7 QBs threw over 20 INTs - there's only been 4 combined the last 2 years, and 7 the last 3. The problem with completion % (which in turn I'm assuming is why the QB Ratings are so low) is that WRs drop a ridiculous number of passes in-game, even when simming. I'm pretty sure everyone's noticed that as well. League leader in receptions will have over 100 but at the same time will have almost 20 drops (or more), which is mind-blowing. So basically my problem with them is that they're just no in-line with real life. And the QB numbers (aside from completion % again) were fine last year even after the patch, it was just the RB numbers that were completely messed up. If a RB had 90+ Break Tackle he was guaranteed 2000+ yards and 20+ TDs.

The QB rating system is goofy anyways.

Other than picks, I still think these stats look fine.

Also, half way through my Pats chise (With Playmakers sliders.) and my stats are fine.

The sim engine will never be perfect, NEVER. I mean it's the "prediction" problem. You can only really predict so much. But overall it looks good. You need to just get somewhere in the ball park range.

Seconded.

There should be a rite of passage for posting here.

Its not a good sign that the majority of people see these stats as legit....It's one thing for stats to fluctuate every year, but when they don't even fall somewhere between whats happening in real life there is a problem. Some of these numbers are definitely off.

QB ratings= Off. Way off. Last 8 years lowest total of 90+ ratings was 4 back in 02. 12 9 8 8 8 11 6 4. compared to= 2

4000+ yds= 10 6 7 5 2 5 2 4. As you can see there were a couple times that only 2 qbs threw for 4000. But that was 5 years ago at the earliest, and if you think this league is going to become less of a passing league in the future you haven't been watching football.

TDS= These are not so bad, good enough to say they fall within a realistic range.

% percentage= Laughably bad. Not even close. Here's the number of Qbs with 60% or better last 8 years.
21 20 24 18 20 19 13 19 compared to= 5

So clearly some of these numbers are not even close to perfect. It shouldn't be that hard to have the numbers fall within a realistic range.

That most of you are accepting of this is truly disappointing.
