Okay guys, I've taken over the CPU team scout reports from greggNKC. I just want to take a second to thank greggNKC for his kindness and advice. I just want to say to gregg is that PLEASE DON'T GIVE UP I WANNA PLAY A GAME WITH YOU!!!!!!!! But really, thanks gregg.

Offense:
Best Player: Running Back by FAR. Their running back is pretty beast. He reminds me ALOT of Kwazi Mbutabe, he can't juke, but he can run right through you. This guy is a pain in the neck. He will constantly score first downs. But he isn't much of a threat to the scoreboard. He almost only runs outside runs to the left. So keep an eye on the left side. The thing is is that he is really easy to injure. I took him out for 4 games in the first quarter of the game. (I was using the Hammerheads)

Strengths: Running, look above ^

Weaknesses: Their QB is embarrassing. He threw 5 interceptions in my game. He is easy to sack because he doesn't stay in the pocket as much as the other QBs. Their passing game just sucks.

Tendencys: They run it about 60% of the time

Strategies: Lay waste to the QB, and watch the left side for the outside run. You can shut these guys down with that strategy. Not very hard when you get used to it. Let me put it this way, they are a crappy passing team that passes, you get confused, then they run a fake to the left and get the first down. You just have to look past their confusing style of play and keep an eye on the ball. You get used to this.

Defense:
Best Player: DE, Kimo Talofa (Team Captain). This guy earns his namesake, The Wreaking Ball. He is a pain, he plays more like a Linebacker than a DE. Actually I think he is faster than the 404's linebackers. He is VERY fast for a DE, and he causes injuries like he had nothing better to do. You don't want to stay in the pocket because this guy WILL get to you. So find your target and throw it as fast as you can because this guy with chew you up and spit you out. Also if your running or short yard passing he will line-up as a Linebacker and just rain on your parade. The only advice I can give is stay away from him or unleash on him.

Strengths: Turnovers, these guys with constantly gain interceptions and fumbles, ESPECIALLY their cornerback. He is more like a receiver than a CB. Be careful when passing, choose your targets carefully (which sucks because Talofa will kill you if you take too long).

Weaknesses: Linebackers, these LBs don't suck, but they should be playing in Div 3. Everyone else just makes them look bad. I run right through these guys every game. They normally give up some pretty big yardage. Also this D is weak against a fast running back or running QB (Tony Forbes, Tyler Neal, Daunell Sullivan, Julius Williams, not Kwazi because he is not as fast as these guys and he will get murdered).

Strategies: Play conservative, don't do a insane 60-yard pass play because they can intercept it pretty quickly. Do some medium passing, but keep up the running game. Don't do anything you could possibly regret. Just keep it where you getting some yards each play. You won't crush these guys (Unless your using some beefed-up division 1 team like the Nightmare or Aztecs) but you will win.

These are really great!!! Very nice job.

I think you should post them all in one thread though, this way they are always together and one or two or whatever don't get pushed back in the posts.

PERFECTO

I just utilized this scouting report to
beat these pains in the butt called the 404...

The info in the report was correct..
The insight about the crappy QB who throws anyway, was PERFECT,
and the part about goofy way they run the offense.

If you calm down, and keep your eye on the ball,
this is a very beatable team,

UNLESS YOU LIVE BY THE BOMB...IF YOU DO,
these guys will kill you on interceptions... you will DIE BY THE BOMB....


anyway...I had only scanned this before, but I read it
in detail..and layed wastee to the 404..

Iwill NOT say the 404 are easy wimps,,,,just cuz we
wasted them....cuz.....when you know....the know...it

I even QB unleashed on whats his name captian, but no injury.

Thank you


CHALLENGE IN THIS GAME IS FRANCHISE CAUSE INJURY-

I have found the best way to do this is
on offense.....when they have little clash,
and you have unleashed..run Frabnchise..and do the unleashed
injury move....andBAM...I did it on my first TD...


always nice to have the "challenge" out of the way early.

and hooking up with Tara is good too : )

If you have a challenge that's asking you to cause an injury, don't forget to juice up Franchise (or whomever you mainly use to cause injuries) with something that helps put the hurt on the opponent, like a drug that drains more of their stamina each hit. The faster you wear down an opponent's stamina, the more prone they are to injuries. This is particularly useful when the challenge is asking you to injure a specific player.

I have four specific question, if you would like to answer.

1)
Do you still play, and when you do
have you EVER won ALL the trophys...

passing, rushing, receiving, Defense..
and what did you do to accomplish them.

I can not win the Defense, and I have tried several things.

2)
Regarding final sponsors and the equipment upgrades
I usually finish at
rating equip upgrades
4 _____helmet +12 ri
5 _____pads +6 t +6 bt
5 _____gloves + 8 h
4 _____shoes +4 sp + 4 ag

Does it go up to "6" on each?
I think the one time i was faithful it
went to 6 on a couple of these..

If we win the Defense trophy...does that do it...OR WHAT?


3)
REGARDING TRAINING-
What is the deal with the supposed "100".
I mean 100 does NOT mean 100. Whne it get to 100
it is still yellow, and can be added to.

IS IT WORTH IT to continue adding to it,
IF it is at 100?..

for instance if my QB's resist injury is 100, but
the bar is yellow, and it says another round will
add 5....DOES IT HELP?..IS IT WORTH IT?


4)
Does anyone use those add on mmeory packs for
the Xbox 360? They cost $50.00, but if it would
save my team, in case of fk up..I would pay it.

I am unsure they will work, and I am tired of paying money.

Will the game, and Xbox live allow me to save my team, as
a backup on the meme card, in case of "save file corrupted" issue?



========================================
================================================
========================================
I have one game to go with my new team and it is my best ever.

My only worry is it gets delted again..

I have it trained perfectly for online play,
and i am ready to to land back on the top 100 online.

With one game to go, we have a rep of 40 1/2.
I have been rushing and reciving with Franchise, he will win both titles, BUT he is a minor part of my eventual online strategy. I hope this works....

Kewl,
I just completed a perfect game against LA.
They can be pain, unless you play with the
"eye of the tiger", and I did. It was spectacular.

Franchise needed 120 yards rushing, for the title
and the Battiglia challenge can be a scary prospect,
esp whne there is only one Franch rushing play...turn
the corner ..and BAM!!!


Yeehaww

I like the sense of satisfaction of playing a perfect season,
No multi game injures to any of my players....
no QB sacks against us...
we won all trophys excpet rushing div 3,.
we also missed the Defense trophys.

WE did NOT get Dr feelgood, or 10 sacks in a game.
We had 22 diff injuries, and cuz we started over,
from scratch I kept very close recorde of all injuires,
I know which ones I need.

The fianl drug was krewtal..how fkn lame is that?
That drug gives an extra point of whatever we are
training, and there is no more trianing...so fk sad
I was hoping for ...well you know.. happy


The team is rated 556

Team pros and cons
PRO- Quarterback Pressure
CON- Return Game

I like this team..I will practice a litte
and see you online...
I juts hope this team does not get delted.

I would really appreciate advice on the external x360 mem chip. If I backup my team on on one,,and the save
file is corpted again,,,can I use the saved team and
restore it to online playabilty?

Thx,, but I am not even sure if 100 is much better
than than 90. I mean 90% is pretty good, and if
you apply training to a guy with 100 and it only adds
2 points,,,maybe to max him...AT THE EXPENSE of another
player where the training will take THAT player from
87 to 92.....is that a good idea.

that is the question.

I am NOT sure MAXING a player does much, If it is at the
expense of another player.

On the subject of equipment, here's a list of the top stuff you can get in each category and how you get it:

Helmet: Salvation: +12 Resist Injury: Complete challenge from Grace during Division 1, Game 2.

Shoes: Magic Rabbit: +4 Speed, +4 Agility, +8 Traction (helps to avoid slips during weather games): Franchise gains 2000 combined yards of offense during the Division 1 season.

Gloves: Fly Trap: +10 Hands: Awarded during Division 1 after Game 5 if Kim is current girlfriend.

Pads: Enforcer: +8 Tackling, +8 Break Tackle: Awarded during Division 1 after Game 7 if Kim is current girlfriend.

Hope that helps!

Now THAT is a very helpful post! I've been trying to keep track of these things. So there IS a nice benefit from keeping Kim around.
As good as that is though... I need that stamina boost from Grace, helps alot online

I am not sure you do.... try it ...you'll like it.

On my latest rebuild I was faithful......and the team is winning.


Do you think extra stamina helps you NOT get injured?
or
does it help you move the ball and score?
or
or do you think the extra 10 stamina helps you injure?

Basically online it gives me that slight advantage. My players don't wear down as easily and they stay fast, agile, etc...

One big hit without it and you're down in the 80's which really effects your play
