Since nobody else came in to do it I'll be a dumbass and say 2010 Jets, run heavy because I don't actually know anything about football before 2009.

Since you only need two more teams, I'll just throw these in for the hell of it: 1995 Lions, Pass Heavy, and 1990 Eagles, Balanced.

2014 Lions could be interesting, considering that Megatron was hobbled and the simulation presumably won't do that.

Cruel and Unusual posted:2014 Lions could be interesting, considering that Megatron was hobbled and the simulation presumably won't do that. Actually, I think it does take into account statistics from the season in question as some indicator of performance. For example, I would have suggested the 1991 Eagles, which had a much better defense than 1990, if it were possible to include a normal and healthy Randall Cunningham. However, since he blew out his knee early in the first game, he has no real stats on WhatIfSports, so anytime you simulate a game using him as the starter for that team, he'll basically last no more than 10-ish passes (And seemingly no runs) and whomever you set as the backup comes in, even if you set him for all three spots on the depth chart. So I went with the 1990 Eagles, cause you may get a chance of QB Eagles showing up. What that means for the 2014 Lions though is that Johnson may be more erratic than if you picked a different team with him. However, you are the Lions fan, so I'll defer the choice to you.

So if a player misses a year in real life, it doesn't extrapolate from past/future seasons? I've never messed with What If Sports, so I'm not totally sure how it works.

That's what I gathered from fooling around with it using those 1991 Eagles. I did it a dozen times, using different offensive approaches, and Cunningham was at best had around 10 pass attempts, often completing maybe a third of them, and almost never had any rushing attempts at all. As a reminder, his stats for that season were 1 completion on 4 attempts for 19 yards with no rushing attempts, since he was hurt so quickly.

Is it too late to change the 58 baltimore colts to balanced instead of pass favour? It's probably more accurate. Also, pretty stoked on this 58 vs 11 match up. Should be interesting!

Take the '69 Chiefs, are they going to be using half a season's worth of stats for Len Dawson? Or does he get Mike Livingston's stats thrown in there as if they were the same player? Oh wait I see, it might be using the rate stats for that season which would make a little more sense (and still be dumb as hell). But I gues it'd only be really disastrous in a case like QB Eagles where he got hurt immediately. e: We should see if we can game it somehow, who's someone who started off a season super hot and then tore an ACL or something after a game?

Grittybeard posted:e: We should see if we can game it somehow, who's someone who started off a season super hot and then tore an ACL or something after a game? Purely for shenanigans, and I was bored, I tried putting the 2011 Packers, with Matt "6 TD" Flynn against the only other example I could think of off hand, the 1970 Bears with Bobby Douglass (Who had 4 TDs on opening day with a broken hand or something and missed the rest of the year). Almost every attempt ended up with them not doing much, and having the QB's who played the majority of the season wind up taking snaps (If not the majority). I then tweaked it so they would be the only QB's on their depth charts, and the backups would still get in at times. One game had Matt Flynn go 9 of 40 with 2 picks. Another 3 for 29. And probably another five or six with single digit completions on several dozen attempts. Douglass never had more than one TD, more games than not with zero, and more still where another QB came in. There was also a 28-21 game where every TD was defensive... So, if there is a way to game this thing, I'll leave it to someone else to figure out exactly how to do it.

Eagles should be the 2004 Eagles and be pass-heavy as I see you don't have them yet in your list. edit: Or 1990 Eagles based on the "healthy QB Eagles" stuff we've been discussing. Maybe have them do a play-in game? Also what are everyone's thoughts on doing the same, only using the worst version of your team? I wanna see if the 0-16 Lions or 0-14 Buccs really are the worst teams ever. axeil fucked around with this message at 17:46 on Jun 2, 2015 |
