I think I need to trash my ND Dynasty, take some time to rework sliders, and start over.

The sliders I have were perfect before patch 2. Now, in season 4, I'm getting a headache playing the game. I run all over the CPU, I can't pass or pass protect, I get no pass rush, I watch the CPU complete 80%, and I watch them miss PAT after PAT. And, the games are now fumble fests.

I think part of the problem is sliders and part is recruiting and progression issues. I was near the end of year 2 when the first set of fixes hit. That means I had 1 year of bad progression and 2 crops of bad recruits. Now, it shows. I doubt I have the patience to play a few years to let things level out.

But, even if I play horrible teams, the games feel the same. I'm no longer certain if it's bad players, bad sliders or both. I need to play with the default rosters again and see if it's sliders.

I'm skeptical that starting over is going to fix the kicking game. It'd be a shame if such a fantastic game is ruined by so many horribly inaccurate kickers. I know the new classes are better, but I doubt they're good enough. Simming PATs may end up being the way to go.

Honestly, I'm not sure if I have the energy to go through slider work again.

Someone talk me off the ledge, lol.
