I do like the idea of the DB getting 1 base length on a comeback route. Makes it a little more difficult to complete.
We played our first half here last night. (two teams all on rookie bases) Using 3 stops which has been excellent to help teach the game of football. Basically for passing we have to declare the receiver and then they can place the stick wherever. (nice and simple and worked to about a 65% completion rate with 1 INT)
omgitmoves caught me a couple times when he first asked me is it ok for someone other than the QB to throw the ball? I of course said yes, as long as it's the first forward pass etc etc.
Well about 20 minutes later the little bugger sucked me into a running play and after the stoppage declared I'm passing to 85. Of course 85 was running free behind my secondary with me not even thinking he would consider a RB option to throw
nice little 25 yard gain.
Not only does he do it once he does it again in the 2nd quarter deep in the red zone for a 14 yard TD
lesson learned. (I hope)
So we will pick up the second half tomorrow tied at 7. With my score coming off a 48 yard off tackle run.
The main thing is a lot of fun was had and looking forward to finishing our first ever game.
I am really finding pass simulation is helping demonstrate the way the game is played and has made the games instantly competitive.
