QB Rushing yards (end of season) too low ?

Postby Invisible Witness » Fri Nov 29, 2019 11:02 pm

Anyone experiencing this? I'm just looking at regular season stats at the end of season and they are nowhere near the stats in real life. I tried simming with both fictional and NFL rosters but the number don't match those in real life. 4 QB's with triple digits and the rest with only double digits.
On top of that it seems so random. For example Drew Brees is not known for his speed and mobility but he's on top of the list.
I want to see Lamar Jackson leading QB's in rushing yards but no matter how many times I simmed he's not up there. I'm guessing the algorithm for QB Rushing is more complex( coaches,play calling,teamates,mental attributes etc) but I just thought that QB's with high speed and high agility should be leading in rushing department for QB's.

Any thoughts ? Maybe someone else could post their screenshots ( QB Rushing yards end of regular season)

To get QB rushing yards your QB has to be marked with "Rushing QB", have a high speed value, and there needs to be specific plays called for him to do so. The AI doesn't always take this into account, but in general those QB's should be near the top in rushing yards.

Is it possible to mark QB's "rushing QB" from csv.file while editing ratings or only from player's card screen under edit?
Anyway I did further testing and the numbers got better after marking some of those mobile QBs "rushing QB". Also I think I found a small bug on Players Stats screen. After selecting Stat it only shows me leaders from One Conference not both even though it's selected on top "All Conferences". See my link. Lamar Jackson's rushing yards over 200 but not showing in stats. Only after I select American and then go back to All Conferences it shows.
