Default Pass Simulation

George, you're right even pass simulation requires some skill. I have used the NHFL Pass Attack system the most. I have no problem hitting the target with the TTQB, my problem is running to the ball marker to complete the pass because I really do not know my receivers abilitites (does he slant right, left or run straight) and how much right or left.

As an example the last time I played an NHFL game, on the last play of the game, I had a receiver wide open 80 yards down field and the ball marker at the 2 yard line. I hit the target with the TTQB from 90 yards away. All I had to do to win the game was complete the pass by having my receiver hit the ball marker. Because I angled the receiver to much he missed the ball by 1 yard.

So yes there is skill required to even play using simulations. A "skilled" coach develops whatever skills are needed to best compete in the format or rule set he wishes to play under whether it be base tweaking, offensive play calling, defensive play calling, special teams and especially play execution.
