Just curious how many of you watch your games now that the gameplanning element is eliminated.

I watch just to see my offense run the ball 40x a game and kick only field goals

preseason game 1 (v4.5)

Me: 38r/20p
Opp: 26r/27p

guess we'll see how the season turns out!! lol

Never

I watch them for mindless late-night brain drain and to help write my team blogs as they're sometimes good for commentary. But it gets pretty painful sometimes to view in 0.4.4 (not familiar enough with 0.4.5 to make an observation yet).

I do watch the games and I love the hide results feature. It brings anticipation and excitement to our games. Plus watching the game is like watching films like coaches and players do in the real world. You can critique and adjust your game strategy by watching, as well as scout other teams in preparation for future games.

Not in a RO .. ;)

What does RO mean?

Roster Only. They are essentially a GM only league. You sign/cut, draft, and set the depth chart. All other game aspects are handled by the AI. If there is an issue with gameplay, you cant set a rule to change it. Everyone in the league has the same restrictions. So if its happening to one its happening to all.

There are several of these leagues available should you be interested in trying one out!

Whos.... oops please forgive my ignorance. I thought this thread was for rosters only....meaning we talk about our rosters or players only.

I think it would be frustrating if the gameplan the AI would choose is horrible and you couldn't tweak or adjust it. Roster only must have the purpose to save time by cutting out a large proportion of things to do week by week.
