It's not about winning at anything really. Plain and simple , it's about having fun and downtime with a game that I enjoy. I think a lot of people get forget that. It's a video game (unless you're playing in ESports tournaments) .

For that reply, I just might.... you on XB X?

Yeah its all disposable income, people spend their money how they want. They just view the game as a worse choice than like alcohol or books or whatever.
Bro, that green still looks good on you.... but bI mean, right? How many times on these forums have u seen people make comments to me and others about his much money they spend on the game?
If I was unemployed and in massive debt, and truly spent thousands on the game, its nobody's business anyway.... just like you said, if I have disposable income and this is a hobby of mine, who has the right to question or comment on how I spend it?
Truth is I'm 50+ years old , employed, with the ability to spend money on what I enjoy....and I'm lucky for it. Great family, wife, kids.... I'm incredibly fortunate... but it took some time to get here. I grew up in Brooklyn NY in a low income area and worked a lot of jobs during college to pay my way. I deserve to spend my hard earned money how I see fit. So frankly , screw anyone who thinks they have a right to question that.

And by now you may know me a bit, I don't cheese generally unless someone is doing it to me and I want to make a point.
I have all those tall WRs, I'll get Carmichael, but I don't do the steps in front swerve and aggro catch even though I could....what for? I'm not playing in a money tournament, I'm playing from my couch lol

The green is pretty. Ill hate to lose it.
You see it all the time. People spend money differently and it is what it is. You just gotta go past it and ignore them. They probably also waste money on things you think arent worth it but since its a collective, youll see people hate it on more versus a different forum.
SmallDog said:Plax and Megatron are still the best in my opinion. I also still am copying gutfoxx by running Crabtree in the slot because he gets 1 ap slot apprentice. He gets the job done and on those corner routes you don’t really need to have the biggest baddest dude out there. Just someone to get open and bring In those sideline balls. You’ve got a lot of coins in receivers right at the change of the season so a tactical downgrade or selling off uys who never are going to touch the field isn’t the worst idea
This is the best combination IMO. Having a 1 AP slot apprentice is extremely helpful and you still have a 6'1", 200+ lbs receiver in Crabtree. Until we see another top end receiver with slot apprentice for 1 AP, I would stick with Megatron and Plax on the outside with Crabtree in the slot.
I know you said coins aren't an issue, but I would still sell DK, Moore and Hall. If you love Marshall as a Giants fan, then you can always hold on to him in case you go to a 4 receiver set or need a sub when guys are tired or a better run blocker. It seems like a bit of a waste to have the other 3 though.

Well now that were all at least going to use Allen you dont have to use him since hell get HRM.
kaotikords said:Well now that were all at least going to use Allen you dont have to use him since hell get HRM.
True, that does change things. I completely forgot about Allen getting HRM.
With that in mind, I would still go Megatron on the outside, but then I'd go with Plaxico and Marshall as my 2/3 in any order since OP said he likes them as former Giants. I'd keep DK as my #4 since he is an LTD and his value will depreciate less over the next few weeks. I know OP said coins aren't a problem, but that's always on my mind lol.

Yeah when I saw them, I didnt think about his abilities. Same with Deion.
Allen with get the high end THP, HRM, GS (he already has high release so he doesnt need SFL).
Deion is 6'2? Still going to get mossed but youll use him forever, esp with Legend teams.

Nah, im on PS but thanks for the offer 😉

Deion is 6'1", so he'll definitely still get mossed. It honestly wouldn't matter if they made Peppers a CB, gave us Too Tall as a CV again, and gave us Mel Blount since they would all still get mossed. I honestly don't have a major issue with aggressive catches right now. Imo, the bigger issue is drops on the tips when aggs aren't caught. If they made the risk bigger, then it would be better.

I think its pretty balanced, NGL.
Agg catches with giant WR/TE are a thing again but its so fucking easy to get all those stupid ass early/late break up animations as well. Without abilities on either.
its not like IRL when you have a 5 8 dude vs a 6 8 dude the tall dude will win 95% of the time. With all these dice rolls itll be much closer than it should, which yes height is nice but its not the be all, end all.

I do get a decent amount of break ups if I don't go for a pick on an agg. I do still wish some of the tips on those break ups could be picked off, even if it was like a 5% boost to the odds we have now.

Yeah without tip drill (and maybe with since i dont run it) they just stand there when they just put their hands out, they would catch the ball, especially if theres multiple defenders.
