Ugh what is with this stop LJ petition? Its all about how they don't want him holding the Chiefs rushing record set by Holmes. Pathetic. Come on...LJ was better. In fact I believe much better. Holmes never impressed me. People just hate LJ and love Priest because personalities. Last time I checked this was Football.

Default Abilties

Going forward with Team and CAP creation:

Guys I have sent a message to QC to really put their antennas up on abilities. I don't think anyone is looking for unfair advantages, I am sure of that. But when we make players at any tier, we should be using the abilities that BEST describes their game. There are some abilities I am starting to see more often, and I just want to make this clear.

I am using M as an example only because he has been working very hard over the last few days to get his team right, and approved by the appropriate parties. Here are some examples.

Matt Ryan- Matt Ryan is a hect of a quarterback, with a high football IQ. With that being said, I dont think the abilities listed best describes his ability. Leadership is a ability for someone who MAKES the players around him better. Matt has done an exceptional job at throwing the ball. However, when you give an ability like that out you have to ask yourself what has Ryan done to make Roddy White better, what has he done to make Gonzo better, what has he done to make Michael Turner better, does he put his players in a position to succeed? Maybe he does, but this is what we all should be asking ourselves when giving out this ability.

again I am only using M, because he has been working hard to get his build correct over the last few days, but I think this is something we all can build and learn from

Another ability that Matt has is Quick feet. Ryan again is a hect of a QB, that can throw the ball. However, is his agility really top notch for QB's? Does his speed surpass the average speed for most QB's?(Peyton, Tom Brady, Carson Palmer,etc....) Doe his elusiveness stand-out when alluding defenders? Does he have the ability to scramble and be a threat, as most QB's are not? These are the question you should be prepared to answer when giving this ability out. We all have to be aware of this, and it will make the QC process a lot shorter. Some players are hard to figure out, as there skill sets are unique and we can't always capture there talent with the abilities given on the game. The same thing applies when making team builds. So let M's build be an example for all of us, and lets really take the time and research to capture our NFL stars abilities to best represent them. If a certain team has your attention, and your not sure of them just ask QC to build them for you

Kind Regards

EB

Send a PM to Ebineezer and he'll let you know everything. I would, but he's pretty much the boss and I'm not sure if he has anything special planned.

Eb, if there's anything Matt Ryan has done since joining the Falcons, it's lead the team. Anytime we're in a tough situation he's always the one to bring them back. And while Roddy White had that good year without Matt Ryan, he's on the brink of being elite now that Matty Ice is there.

As for Quick Feet, when I gave that to him, I was referencing to his movement in the pocket. He doesn't do alot of running, but small, quick movements that get him away from pressure and give him a better chance to throw the ball. If that is another ability, my bad; I'm just trying to give him what will make him as close to the real thing as possible and, within the pocket, he does have pretty quick feet.

As I've always tried to do, whatever QC comes up with, I'll comply or give my reasons why something is a certain way over another option.

(PS: I didn't take any offense to your post, so don't worry about that. You just want to get it right. I understand )
