6 drops in the 1st half on 24 throws. Way too many. Went 13-for-24 though. Maybe QB accuracy to 30 and WR Catching to like 55?

When are these drops happening? I agree that Quizz shouldn't drop a lot of passes but is he dropping these balls in traffic? His CIT rating is only 79.Originally Posted by Iron Dragon
Looking at it there isn't a reciever on your team that has a CIT rating above 79, everyone else is 72 or lower. This could explain why you are seeing a lot of dropped balls.

His drops were happening when he is near the sidelines calling for the ball, once when he had his man beat motioned out as a WR. James Rodgers were in multiple areas. In 57 throws, I've had 17 drops, far too many.
Do me a favor, try playing with Arkansas, same playbook even same opponent and let me know if you have the same problem.
OK, I'll try it. With the setting on 30/50, I threw 15 passes and only one was dropped and I went 9-15 passing. Alot better.
First two passes were dropped, both were wide open, the one was Arkansas' impact WR and the other was DJ Williams.
Try out 25 QB accuracy and 50 WR catching.
Here are the stats from another game after updating the user qb acc and wr catch sliders: Nebraska (me) at Alabama.
This game was played on a wet field and once I saw Bama's recievers slipping all over the place and them having problems throwing the ball because of this I started to focus heavily on shutting down their running game. My rushing stats are inflated because of a run by WR Niles Paul on a WR quick out of Ace - Normal where once the defense lined up I knew it was going to atleast go for a big gain. I however did not have Helu for the second half. I was down most of the game, however I was able to scrap and claw my way to a lead with 38 seconds left in the game.Code:Nebraska Alabama 17 Score 14 12 First Downs 12 323 Total Offense 239 35-144-2 Rushes - Yards - TD 25-97-1 13-18-0 Comp - Att - TD 13-29-1 179 Passing Yards 142 3-10 (30%) 3rd Down Conv 5-12 (41%) 0-1 (0%) 4th Down Conv 0-1 (0%) 1-1-0 (100%) Red Zone - TD - FG 2-2-0 (100%) 2 Turnovers 1 2 Fumbles Lost 1 0 Intercepted 0 5 PR Yards 10 42 KR Yards 55 370 Total Yards 304 3 - 50.7 Punts - Average 6 - 32.3 1 - 15 Penalties - Yards 2 - 15 21:47 T.O.P. 15:37 Passing: Name Team Comp Att Yards TD INT Sack Cody Green NU 13 18 179 0 0 4 Greg McElroy BAMA 13 28 142 1 0 3 AJ McCarron BAMA 0 1 0 0 0 0 Rushing: Name Team Att Yards Avg TD Long BTK Roy Helu Jr NU 12 41 3.4 0 13 1 Rex Burkhead NU 12 14 1.1 0 8 0 Niles Paul NU 2 94 47.0 1 95 1 Mark Ingram BAMA 20 119 5.9 1 20 7 Greg McElroy BAMA 5 -22 -4.4 0 0 0 Receiving: Name Team Rec Yards Avg TD Long Drop Niles Paul NU 3 21 7.0 0 11 0 Brandon Kinnie NU 3 24 8.0 0 16 0 Mike McNeill NU 3 40 13.3 0 15 0 Julio Jones BAMA 3 37 12.3 0 17 1 Darius Hanks BAMA 3 36 12.0 1 12 1 Marquis Maze BAMA 3 35 11.6 0 23 0
I have updated the sliders as well.
I played with the sliders that were updated today at 6:25pm.

Game seemed to drag....but maybe it's because I'm not worth a plum nickel physically after moving from a 3rd floor apartment this weekend.
I can't wait 'till we get going....should be FUN.
I'll try the sliders when I get off work tonight. I was gonna do it earlier, but I just got back in town so I was drained earlier.
oneback:
can we take this into account once many/most/all of our kickers have graduated? your sliders would be silly with those ratings at major programsI really like this game and the recruiting, but I've noticed a potential major problem with recruiting: Kickers and punters are basically awful. I'm sorry if this has been posted elsewhere, but I looked on a bunch of sites and didn't see it.
Basically, if you look at a recruiting class, most of the specialists have C- or lower in KPW and KAC. I simmed through a season quickly and, sure enough, most punters and kickers from the first recruiting class came in with KPW and KAC in the 60s. Or worse. Colorado signed a kicker prospect with 40 KPW and 41 KAC. Why not just put in any random player at kicker at that point?
The problem is that these ratings are way, way out of whack with the default rosters. Only 6 kickers and 1 punter had KPW less than 70 on the default rosters. But in dynasty, nearly every recruit is coming in at under 70.
Has anyone else noticed this? There is a solution which is just to create a bunch of special teams prospects, but that's a lot of effort. If I'm not imagining this, I hope that EA is aware.
I'm going to suggest CPU catching up to 35 or 40.
I forgot that I had upped the CPU passing sliders as well. I'l post them when I get home from work this evening (yes, my week of doing nothing but play NCAA is over).
Looking at Papa's stats I am going to look at Notre Dame's offensive line and possibly up the CPU run game some more.
Yeah, I saw that. I was planning on starting a dynasty this week to see if there are any issues with the sliders. From what I hear with KPW and KAC in the 60's it seems like EA was trying to make up for their default sliders.oneback:

Who knows by the time we start there may be a patch that fixes the issue.
true, i know i missed a 38 yarder well short with temples kicker with your sliders and no wind.
FWIW ND runs a new "air the ball out" offense don't they? Not sure they would run much anyway
Yep....they were running spread with no huddle sometimes....I guess I should've provided how many sacks I had.
Without knowing the kickers ratings (at work) I don't have much to go off of.
What I did however was took UCLA's Kai Forbath who won the Groza award last year and who has a career long of 54 yards. I set it so he could kick a 57 yarder just clearing the crossbars with no wind in the indoor practice field. I tested with both myself kicking and with the CPU kicking. Once I had that set I tested 10 other kickers on length/accuracy to get the CPU kick accuracy slider dialed in.
I agree but Allen had 11 yards on 8 carries.
