Forgot how boring it is to run a theme team

Before getting into this I will acknowledge that no one forces you to run a TT. I choose to run a 50/50 Eagles team. I have been max Eagles from early access and the team is undefeated, so you would assume they would be getting blessed with content. 

Vick dropped almost a month ago. Since then, below is 100% of the content the Eagles have received INCLUDING multi-chem players, of which there have been ZERO.

89 AJ Brown (LTD)

88 DeAndre Swift (LTD for TOTW)

88 Jason Kelce (+2 which is meaningless)

85 Jalen Carter (+2 upgrade to DT2 F Cox)

84 Marcus Mariota (backup QB Jalen is already 84)

80 Nicholas Morrow

80 Derek Barnett

78 Tyler Steen

Two new starters - both LTDs - in almost a month of undefeated football  is a pretty lame drip of content.

I’m sure this isn’t Eagles specific. Any other TT’ers being put to sleep by lack of content?

it's and 85 overall theme team, like how much better do you want or expect it to be? are you saying they need to drop a bunch of filler players for all the theme teams or? like just drop junk? if they dropped 89 and 90's for eagles theme team it would be overpowered and one of the best teams in the game.

I would like them to do a better job spacing out content. There should be something useful for every team in every promo and it shouldn’t all be LTD. 

In the last two major promos there was a LTD and a bunch of gold and low elite nonsense. They have only gotten one champion (AKA Devonta) since the game dropped. No Legends that are primary Eagles.

That shouldn’t be the case for any team, even one like the Eagles that started out strong.

You forgot Zach Ertz

I missed him in unstoppable. The new 84 moves him from TE3 to TE3, so I don’t view that as a material omission.

I think he got an 84

Edited my reply. Increase from 80 to 84 doesn’t move him up the depth chart.

Woof. One of the best TT complaining that they dont get enough content...

I’m just using the Eagles as an example. I’m trying to figure out if others have the same frustration with pacing. 

Boring enough that I might drop to 25/50 so that I can consume new content.

Thats what happens when you run a TT. Most people run 25/25 ones so you have better flexibility. It isnt worth running 50/50 until after Christmas at the earliest.

That reasoning makes sense. I went 25 Eagles / 25 Campus Heroes for a bit and that was pretty fun. 

I wish there were compelling boosts in the subsequent programs. The Guardians boosts were beyond useless…

Shouldn’t they be one of the better TT? If they’re the best team in the league, shouldn’t that be reflected through MUT?  

Lets get some Broncos, Colts or Texans just to change it up.

Falcons have been the same way. It feels like players are coming in bunches. For example, Vick and Finneran were the same day. Now Hurst, Mariota, and Pitts. In-between the Falcons only got two players
