Playaction Rendered Worthless?

This is totally off topic, but I just had to mention that your Avatar with the corresponding quote is friggin' great!

I never thought I would see The Tick with "SPOON!!" written on top of it ever in my life. That episode was great.

It works. I've had times where a linebacker came in, could sack me, but chases the running back for a second instead. Sometimes it gets blown up, but that's football. Way better than last year, where a playaction deep pass was basically a money play.

That's why you should bench God, in favor of Xavier Lee.

Good call. Not to mention he's out for the year anyway

I haven't had any problem with playaction, probably fewer problems than in years past. But I'm playing on default AA. Maybe heisman is different. It's actually been pretty effective for me.

I seriously considered it, especially since it would open up about half of my playbook with the option and rollouts. But Lee is just too spray armed. I figure Sexton will have a good season and probably leave early, paving the way for Lee in Year 2.
