Time-Specific/Score-Dependent Play-calling/Energy

April 09, 2011 at 09:54PM View BBCode

Instead of just energy settings for each depth chart position and play-calling for just normal, redzone, and 2-min.

Thoughts?

--------------------------------------------

A bit more detail:

Create "Coaching Strategy" pages that can be customized and turned on or off.
Right now, we have, on offense:
? Base
? 2-Min
? Yellow Zone
? Red Zone
? 2-Min Red Zone
? Goal Line
? 2-Min Goal Line

On defense, you have the same.

Now, if you could create your own situations, you could control the outcome of the game more and actually cause games to be decided by more than the draft (~80%) and tactics (~20%). For example, how many of you would like to have settings for this:

Offense, 2nd quarter (15:00-2:00 left), between own 35 and opp 45, score -3 to +14

Here, I'd probably want to play my base offense because I'm not too deep in my own field, but I'm not very close to FG range (where I would want to run the ball to make sure I get into FG range). I'm not out of time in the half yet, so I can do whatever I'd like, and I'm either not far behind (if I was, I'd want a passing strategy), or I'm not too far ahead (where I'd probably want to rest starters and run the clock out).

This could also be used for going for it on 4th downs, depending on score, and stuff like that.

This is essentially what the "advanced settings" page I keep referring to would do, although it wouldn't represent a whole page of settings, just a single line (so down and distance are part of the condition as well). Having a couple of "custom pages" where the whole page has a condition set might be a good interim solution.
