Regarding three stops Dimitri. Honestly I haven't felt that it's too much. It really forces you to make decisions on the defense in regards to coverage.

Obviously it is slower but not at such a negative that I would stop using it anytime soon. Also remember that with the three stops we let the D have 5 magnets for players, and the Offense can have 3 maximum. Once the play starts you can never place a player on to a magnet except the QB, but you can take them off at anytime.

It's biggest advantage is as a teaching tool though, there were a couple times when omgitmoves would ask a question about dropping guys into coverage or why is he on a magnet? etc. It really gives you time to teach some football basics for those that don't have the in depth knowledge.

So overall it is a little slower, but it plays far more like chess or a tactics game rather than relying on just tweaking and hoping a guy gets open. Also remember in the three stop system you do not have to declare run or pass until you want to at any stoppage.

Regarding Dre. Darn didn't even consider the quick hitter off of the snap stoppage. Keep it coming!
