Can't have good without bad and you can't have yin without yang people.

I like the idea but I couldn't imagine EA would put that in the game.

Clutch is a weird term in sports because it can fluctuate so easily. I am a Patriots and Brady fan but look at his last few postseason games. Not too clutch. Roethlisberger didn't look too clutch in the Super Bowl. Brees against the seahawks is another example. Then look at the other way sanchez and hasselbeck looked clutch in the early rounds than not so much in later ones. Another nonfootball example would be lebron. He was the definition of clutch vs the celtics sand bulls and now he's unclutch.

So what I am trying to say clutch shouldn't be automatic or stay with the same people the whole season. It should fluctuate.

There is only one place in this thread where "making plays" is used and you seem to take that phrase from its original context and change it. And I really don't get the point you are trying to make. Please elaborate.

He is probly saying that clutch doesn't really exhist. Good players make plays. For every "clutch" game we remember, there is a game where he isn't clutch. So the clutch rating makes someone clutch every time? Kinda silly.

You are mentioning all playoff games, which would go under the role "playoff performer."

Playoffs are the time when the "clutch" players step up. They are tough to separate.
