Game Log Ends
------------------------------------------------------------
(Uhhh ... Ignore the fact that both teams combined for like 200+ plays and 1000+ yards on offense. I forgot to set the Accelerated clock in Calhoupe's scripts to 15. And ignore the fact that Nathan Peterman threw 6 picks. Or that Gostkowski sucked at kicking even with 99 Kicking Accuracy. Ignore all that, they are not part of my point).
So, I was looking at the game and the pace was pretty good during the first half, at least for a Patriots - Bills game (Except for Peterman throwing .. you know ... 6 picks with a setting of 1 in interceptions). It ended just as I would expect a Pats - Bills game too. Now, look at the drops that happened in this game. The Bills' receivers combined for 5 drops, with Jordy (Freakin') Nelson having 2 of them. And the Patriots' receivers weren't that better, with 4 combined drops.
I think this is caused by Tackling being at 40. At that setting, the tacklers hit hard enough to force drops, and this is a problem because it kills drives. There have been instances (Such as in this game, twice) when a receiver catches the ball, gets hit and drops it, then a safety or corner or linebacker comes by and picks off the ball.
The problem with moving Tackling in any direction is that Hit Stick tackles would suffer (The Big Hit stat is already un-used a lot. I've only seen it active on Player vs. CPU games, mostly by the CPU), with even QBs shedding tackles. You very rarely see Hit Stick tackles even at 50 in CPU vs. CPU games, if at all.
