Lol. Blocked punts are still a thing.


Lost on two of them: https://paydirt.myfootballnow.com/box/4075

I was hoping it wouldn't come to this. But I'm going full punt block from now on.


All it would take seth is for one GM to have some *****. They all must be so frightened a few players will fold their arms in front of their chests pouting.."Waah I can;t believe you won't let us do whatever we want waaah, I'm leaving waaah".

GO!

Stop doing this or you will be removed from the league. Just that simple.

Because there is always one in a bunch that won’t tote the line. Beercloud can remove the trade meter to allow it to happen but what do I know.

I’m gonna claim him twice.

I think Chicago will have priority on the waiver wire so hopefully this is all moot.

Don't you think it's easier to not claim him and let Damion get his player again? How are you going to trade him back again for peanuts if his trade score is 1620?

The same thing everyone was talking about with giving this DE back to the new guy for "good sportsmanship". you know, a verbal agreement between all of us to not do something for the betterment of the game and experience of others, setting aside our own selfishness.

F that though.

The problem is that it's seems not all of us agree with that one. Of course I'm going to claim him before letting him go to a random team.

My thing is that if I'm going to lose on blocked punts despite hold an opponent to fewer than 100 yards, then I'm going to block all the punts. Or at least try to.

Note to self: Sign a punter with >20 SP and AC.

I agree. In my leagues it's literally just a small, small handful of owners being bad apples. I really don't understand why GM's don't just kick these people out? If you aren't going to enforce anything outside of what the engine allows to happen, no matter how far out of the norm it is.. then why did they even create a league.. what makes it different than a public league really??

Oh I see you BIG mad Lucky lmao. Good luck next game.

Setherick can you explain me what's the exploit with punt blocking? I just put my backups LB's and Secondary as gunners and I got a punt blocked this week but I don't know if I'm doing an exploit or what.

Yes. It’s lining up small fast players at the ends and in the middle.

To counter this you need strong PB era that are fast and a punter that has very good punt timing.

There is no counter, only a slightly better chance.

I’ve lost twice games in this league due to punt blocks. I’ve blocked one punt total EVER before this game. So I’m not doing anything everyone was already doing to me.
