I apologize for starting a fire I suppose...All I did was ask about the lack of "overuse penalty" which used to be part of the game.

If someone is going to run only one defensive play, I suppose it is my job to find a few plays to run against it.

BDK opted to set the league up without gameplan rules...I would expect a handful of owners to take advantage of exploits. There are other aspects of this "beta test" game that I find more frustrating than gameplan exploitation.

So, again, my apologies for making the initial comment

Not your fault Lars, that's a fair question to ask.

It's probably more my fault for stoking the fires, Lars lol I've been critical of 4.6 since it was in beta.

It's no one's fault lol. This is an MFN-wide problem that should be addressed.

No apology necessary Lars! Nobody is at fault here. I’m happy this was brought up, and I haven’t seen a league yet with rules against the flat zone. Also yes, come up with a way to beat it!

With that said I really wanna set a limitation on it if it’s another exploit, and I hand picked all the gms in here, because you guys are gamers and football lovers. Very few issues with doing what’s right for the league. I’m sending a detailed message to Jdb along with the gratitude I always show him for this amazing site he created. I don’t know what goes into all this coding, but I’m sure it’s not easy. The back end alone on this website is something.

I think everyone’s goal is to make MFN the best it can be, and that’s all anyone here wants.

Let me say this...I don't think the play is an exploit...If it is effective against passes to the RB, great, use it.

The issue is the idea that there is no overuse penalty...All JDB needs to go is make the overuse penalty playbook wide.

Lars has it exactly right. It’s the lack of overuse penalty that has made it so overpowered.

I'm just confused why this leagues chat became a public forum..
