Philly dominates although the Giants have better SIM numbers and Dallas is a close 3rd. Easier schedule because they play the 3rd place teams? Maybe drop Phi a notch and increase Dal or Was.

4,5 seems low for the Skins.

GB & MIN are spot on. Have Chi 8,C and Det D,4. makes Chi better and Det was the playoff team last year. Det only made the playoffs 4 of 43 times. Their D might be better than 4. Chicago's D might be a little high.

Seattle makes the playoffs 65% of the time. They are rated 4,9 which isn't great, but maybe they have an easy schedule? They won more SBs than NYG. Something is off.

I was going off last years results. My opinion of what will happen this year is already very different. If anything though, I would increase Cin & Det by 1 sim point and decrease Sea by 1.

Since Cin will make the playoffs over Pit.

Phi will win the NFC East then Dallas.

That's some bold predictions.

My sim'd season have been all over the place. I had the Pats, Texans, 49ers and surprisingly the Jets all win the Super Bowl.

I did have Marshawn Lynch win the rushing crown with Brady and Manning splitting the passing crown.

Hi again. Great job on RC2. A couple more changes (hopefully you release one more update,RC3?) for the Atlanta Falcons:

1) Lousaka Polite should be starting on offense, he is the FB and lead blocker for Michael turner

4) Dunta Robinson won the starting CB job over Asante Samuel

Here are two things you deal with the limitations of tecmo

1. In a perfect world Polite would be in there. However I think that Turner is in for a timeshare this year. It's probably with Snelling though it could be Rodgers. Thus, Polite is one of those guys you need to sub in.

4. If anyone I'm going to put in Robinson over Grimes if anyone because we're talking about a time share here and when push comes to shove, we should unfairly side with the guy with the bigger name. On a semi-related note, we didn't include Tebow last year because he was the 3rd string QB. Big mistake. That's the sort of thing that gets a guy like Asante Samuel in the game even if he's obviously not the same guy he used to be.

That's the thing about sim stats....if you sim the original 100 times they will be all over the place as well which if you think about it is how it should be. I probably do need to turn down Denver but how random will they be this year? A healthy Peyton Manning makes for a potential Super Bowl contender. Manning blowing his neck out week one is a potential 4 win team. Thus, Denver should be a bit more "random" than a sure thing especially since you could make a compelling case that all teams in their division are better.

BTW, before the playoffs did most people think the Giants would win the Super Bowl? They obviously weren't the best team from last year.

In talking to Devon I'm going to release a rc2 today.

You'll notice that if you matchup the Bills with the Chiefs you get All-white jerseys Chiefs.

You'll notice that if you matchup the Redskins with the Chiefs you get Pretty in Pink Chiefs.

Thus, we're going to figure that out before releasing a final.

Awesome, thanks Knobbe, Keirre, MGK - and everyone else who helped with the ratings and offered input.

Knobbe - my SIM stuff was only a suggestion to make the ROM more "accurate", not something I definitely wanted changed. So please use the info as you wish.

And to your NYG comment, I agree. I don't even think they were a top 5 team last year. They are a good team that gets lucky :-P . Can't wait to see them go 6-10 this year (again, bitter).

RC3

For whatever reason the jerseys were jacked up. Really surprised this hadn't been mentioned.

After going over this for way too much time I decided that the 2007 jerseys looked pretty good.

You have until Monday night football time for any last second changes.

I'd appreciate it if people would look at matchups where teams have similar jereys. The biggest concern is that you can tell the two teams on the field apart. Jersey accuracy is secondary.

I'm quite ready to move at this point!

I noticed (on the latest RC2 anyway) that QB runs for lost-yardage on designed QB run-plays register as a sack.

Not a big deal I guess, but could that be fixed?

Is this a known issue? Not sure if I've heard of this before.

Knobbe, share...I'm curious...

QB runs are tagged as passes where the QB has no pass options. I suppose someone could try passing on a run play to confirm that the QB won't randomly chuck the ball somewhere.
