SalttWatermelon! Great job shutting the Bengals down and making me very SALTY! With my speedy WLB injured, Those jumbo formation passes to the RB gouged us for huge plays. Your QB picked apart the Bengals high ranking pass defense leaving top 3 CB rookie of the year Joseph Hudson crying in the 4thQ. Seriously though, let's take a look at SaltyWatermelon's defensive backs. The Texans have got to have the most complete and talented defensive secondary in the league. I mean who gets to have 5 elite CBs' on their team? WOW color me impressed! Good luck on your journey to the championship.

GG jgcruz/Chargers. Felt like you were in control most of the time, but we made just enough big plays to pull out the win.


Congrats, Warthog/Browns. GL in pursuit of the championship.

When did we start allowing the punt block exploit again? Salty blocked two punts today using a CB as a rusher.

10. Special teams rushers against punts shall exclude players whose primary positions are CB, FS, SS or WR. Such players may only be used as Gunners in punt return situations.

Not how I wanted to win.

First, I want to apologize to warthog and all the other owners. It is very upsetting to me that I did win this way.

When I do a deep dive into my depth chart, there are missing holes and incorrectly placed players in the overrides that I haven't checked in on and replaced for many seasons due to dying interest in the league and game overall. I've been on autopilot with this team.

I agree with everyone that this should not have happened. I'm willing to accept any penalty that comes out of this. I haven't renewed my team and was going to leave the league anyways to allow someone who has more interest to run things.

Again, I apologize to all the great owners in this league.

Man, apologizing is ok, but having a lot of DB as ST Rushers means that you place them there.

And since no other complains about punt blocks earlier in the season, it seems that you place them there just before the conference championship game... and this is not autopilot either .....

You just destroyed a full season, if this is your way of having fun, just go now






P.S. i am ok with a complete reset of this season if this is possible...

If I had won that game I wouldn't have really cared. But that was one of the worst spins dealt my way (gave up TWO interception returns for TDs on top of the two blocked punts). Felt like Houston was gifted 20 points and we still only lost by 5.

Despite the bad roll, the two blocked punts really were the difference, led to two FGs (directly, Houston didn't gain a first down after the blocks either time) and we lost by 5.

marinarul10, they were there last season, and the seasons before that as well for as long as I've had them. I'm fact, I just went and hit the auto reset on the depth chart for the entire special teams earlier.

I agree warthog, my offense didn't move the ball, and the defense played a huge role with their blocks. Sorry for what should have been a win for your sqaud.

You can see that there are gaps in the ST rusher spots. Prior to the rule change, that entire ST was made of quicker DBs and WRs. After the implementation of the rule, I should have changed it, but never did and those players who I did keep stayed at those positions.

I am looking into the situation and I may delay sim. No more than 1 day. I'll be going back through the csv files to determine if the players have indeed been in place long term or have been recently added. Meantime Salty you need to bring your team into complience with the leagues rules. Ignorance of the rules is not an excuse. Please fix the issue immerdiately sir....MM
