I thought there was a check in the game for over use of formations. In my game my opponent used Flexbone for 95% or more of the first 3 quarters and during that time managed to outscore me 24-6. In the last quarter he then went Big I for 99% of the plays and we tied 7-7.

Also their fitness is now 89% and mine is 97% now maybe they did MOTY but if so I still don't know how they did it. If they didn;t MOTY then my team was much fitter than theirs. Why didn't this show?

Also I think it's unlikely they did MOTY against me (and if they did it makes no sense) because they have a game against their divisional rivals coming up which would be much more important to their playoff chances. So my guess is they would MOTY there.

Ok they were at home but then this is also my 72.8% team against a 61.7% team and really how long does it take the defense to realise what is going on and adjust? Surely even after the first quarter the yards gained should be greatly reduced.

Otherwise I may as well just switch my playbook to my best play and leave it at that.

Being MOTY'd against is always a bummer, had it happen to me today too, even when there is such a gulf in class it's rediculous to believe it can happen...

The only excuses I can come up with for your match are, 434 against BI rush...I'll never use 434 until Pete openly admits that it's been tweeked for the better.., 335 against FB isn't something I've thought of using, 533 or maybe 443 if there is a mix of rush and pass.

Also, if a formation is used that much then I think the lopsided rule should kick in if it's 90% pass or 90% rush, with your game the FB was pretty mixed....

Still, MOTY is ruining our league asperations and I'm now 51% in favour off killing off MOTY, too many times this is ruining my homefield PO's hopes....

Good luck for the rest of the season though dude

playing "the same formation and play" and playing "the same formation but different plays" is quite a difference
