I hope to challenge you next season to get the title back though after I have just officially escaped relegation today. I've learned a valuable lesson. Always check the updates and BMI now has a big influence on the game. Now let us never speak of the first half of that season ever again.

Seattle have been terrorising the league with their running game all season, so it's a nice way to clinch the title, by out running them. Have no idea how the next season will pan out. I think there might be another Irish team in title contention.

Congrats Abcat

Good seasons all and certainly an interesting one! Effective running play is massively changing things up, almost makes me wish for how it used to be

Looking for some payback I guess. By the looks it was an experimental week for a few clubs. Congrats on another title I will be looking to repeat our performance in the season following your last win. Next season should be very interesting.

It was a compliment for sure. You're one of the first teams to make the running game work, so that's a great achievement in itself.

There are countermeasures against the rush, like setting the defence orders and using the best defensive linemen in the Defensive Tackle position. If the team I'm facing has both a good passing offence AND a good rushing attack it's going to be a difficult guessing game. I can see eventually the tactics will turn towards a paper-scissors-stone dynamic. That might be detrimental in the long run, but I'd hope there might be some more game engine tweaks before that happens.

As for the ASE league, there are some very strong teams promoting, so it's going to be another intense season coming up.
