Just because someone has a better tackle rating than the break tackle attribute of the player they are tackling doesn't mean they will make the tackle 100% of the time; the higher the disparity, the greater the probability of the tackle being successful, but it's never 100%.

My references are towards the over value of physical ratings . Clearly you are set on the level they are preforming. I just don't agree. The discrepancy in the two set of ratings in relation to player size favor the strength rating . Not the tackle/ break tackle .

I do not feel the default ratings are very accurate . .....in comparison . ........the ratios they are set at do not represent what you state here . It is very confusing . To say the least .

Look at combine numbers in the nfl. Athletic numbers are just that. Technique matters more, and according to default ratings I would assume the code would match. . Hey, perhaps I am the only one, but I always could go back to favoring athletic ratings. It's just too simple and imo closes the gap of what range technical rating can be effective vs. an athletic player.

Struggling to find what is "daft" on this...looks like good tip drill mechanics.

It just dumbfounds me how the defender failed to knock it down or intercept it when it thrown right to him and then the receiver runs over and grabs it. lol. Definitely something I'd consider wacky. Not totally out of then realm of possibility, but certainly rare and wacky.

Not exactly sure who he's trying to dump it off to, probably the RB, but it turned into a lateral that was recovered by the other team.

Weaving unstoppable player? Check!
67 speed player outrunning the defense? Check!
Escort defense? Check!
Garbage time TD? Check!

This play just about has it all: https://paydirt.myfootballnow.com/gamecenter/view/267#48152

Not a "play" - but wasn't sure where else to share this,

Frustrating when your 91 rated QB starts the game 8/13 for 125 yards 1TD, then ends up with a final stat line of 14/36 for 179 yards, 1TD/1Int and 2 fumbles lost.

Guess the Defense made some amazing adjustments. :-/
