Yeah, but WR's aren't blocking on Run plays as far as anyone knows, so I don't think this necessarily follows.



May be true, but...does anyone know that WRs don't block on run plays? Depending on how the CBs play my WRs, I'd throw them off the field if they didn't block on run plays.



knowing for sure? NO. At least there was no difference when I switched WR and TE on rush plays...So I assume Steve is right



so your saying, when you played WR's instead of TE's the blocking was the same?

assuming that TE's block (at least a little) on run plays ( as Admin has said in the past, TE's are like Linemen who can catch), then surely, if you replace them with WR's and you get the same blocking, it suggests the WR's are doing at least some blocking??

yep, or none of them is blocking

there is no block info in the stats, who knows...

And so continues the ultimate guessing game called Grid-Iron ... only masochistic people would claim that this is a fun part of a manager game. Not even having the basic functionalities of the game engine and skills explained for new players.

Ahh silly Steve, in marriage you can be one of two things, you can be right, or you can be happy. And for the record there's no "christmas surprises" on the right train.
