I'm just wondering if anyone noticed a similar behavior or if you see an explanation for this.
So the story is the following.
I have a player, with natural position CB. He has pretty good skills (not superstar but decent)

Positioning 5 Tackling 7 Punting 3
Vision 5 Blocking 8 Speed 14
Intelligence 7 Passing 5 Strength 7
Footwork 7 Catching 1 Agility 2
Carrying 1 Kicking 7 Stamina 2

He has 3 stars rating in player page.
However, in the game he is always getting only 1 star as defensive CB, although 2.5 stars as special team CB.

Do you have any clue why? My guess is that there is a bug with some star ratings for some positions.

Other weird example in my team is this player:

Positioning 7 Tackling 8 Punting 5
Vision 2 Blocking 5 Speed 13
Intelligence 15 Passing 4 Strength 7
Footwork 4 Catching 6 Agility 6
Carrying 6 Kicking 3 Stamina 3

His natural position is LB, he has 2.5 stars rating in player page, but always 1 star in game.

Again any clue?

my suspicion is this is due to stamina and consistency

if they're not at 100% energy they might play below form

also that 3star rating is their maximum playing level (from my interpretation) and if their consistency is low they'll often play worse.

Damn, that's transcript of the source code.
