I can tell you his SAC and MAC are lower than 85 and DAC lower than 70. His THA is 52.
What are they actually though? Because lower than 85, and lower than 70, shouldn't equal 52... and the SAC MAC DAC stat set is what actually determines accuracy in this game. Maybe the game just made a math error when computing those 3 to avg THA?

At least meet us halfway here, man. Coming in kicking and screaming doesn't help.
I'd like to see how some other QB's are doing too...maybe the league just went pass happy?

The THA rating doesn't work any more in Madden, right? It may be used for sim purposes but it doesn't do anything in game.

It's been replaced by short, medium, deep, play action and throw on the run accuracy.

I don't think the game even uses math to determine THA, it's just an arbitrary number.

DAC, MAC, SAC are used in-game, THA does nothing.

THA is used in sim-engine. DAC, MAC, SAC do nothing.

Re: Is this because of the new patch?

So my question is he simming or playing? I'm also confused about this because I think in his other thread, he's playing.

There were games simmed that I won and were not saved. The point of my making LE a QB was to LOSE! I played the games you see in the pictures posted in the other thread. There were other games I played as well, and with LE as QB, I did not take pictures of every single game.

Now you are confusing me. I sim games of other teams. I do not play every game for all teams--I just play games for my team.

The league didn't go pass happy. That season is over and I am now at the draft in the following season. I can tell you this amazing rookie did not go over 3000 yards in his second season, around 27-2800.

Have I attacked someones dog? Seems like lots of attacking on me here--even closing threads without giving me a chance to reply.

I play the game and report what I see. What is troubling you guys here?

If the guy didn't break 3,000 his second year and only got to that number as a rookie because of one monster game, then I don't know... that sounds pretty plausible to me.


And maybe I missed it, but I didn't see the SAC, MAC, DAC posted.
