My single biggest issue with the stat sim engine.

[UdderlySexyCows]

The TE YPC are completely, completely screwed. It was like this last year too. I have never seen a TE average over 10 YPC, even a guy like Kellen Winslow averaged 6.4 YPC, and this is with 84 receptions. Everything else I don't really have huge issues with. I generally get a few WRs with 100 catches every year, RBs average the right amount of yards(except Tiki Barber getting 1,873 yards. Don't get your hopes up Giant fans). Besides the TE YPC, my other gripe is that there aren't enough QBs who rack up 4000 yards, but I can live with that.


P.S. - "Play the game, don't sim." responses suck.

My response would suck.

I'm going to assume that you don't have any problems with the stat engine anymore?

[Pared]

She IS hot, isn't she?

Adriana Lima... absolute Goddess.

[Bobolini]

That's a untrue statement. The top 3 TE's in the NFL last year all average of 12 yards per catch. Gonzalez = 12.9 Sharpe = 12.4 and Heap = 12.2
These 3 also had the most catches

Pollard had 13.5 yds per catch and caught 40 passes. I know TE's shouldn't have a high YD per catch but over 10 is very plausible.

[Stu]

I think he means he hasnt seen a TE average more than 10 per catch in the game...in which case it is a problem since the best TE's obviously do.

[Boilerbuzz]

You guys aren't hearing him. He's saying that he's not seeing TE get over 10 ypc in the simulator. You're varifying his issue. Unless I misunderstood him...
