Some suggestions

I love this series and have been a buyer for years. This game still gives me the best feeling of a real simulated football world, especially if you build up history before beginning!

Anyway, here are some minor suggestions I have for the 2025 version

- Please fix the "watchlist". It's nowhere to be found.
- Please schedule the all star game prior to the championship. It's just very odd seeing the QB's that just duked it out a week ago for the ring have to play again. Maybe even allow disabling the all star game and just have all star selections.
- Please add more depth to coaches. I have no idea why a 5 star head coach with 20 years of tenure becomes a "head scout" on some team for the rest of their career. Some other coaches stay as offensive/defensive coordinators for decades and never get a promotion, even if they have great seasons. I think there should be much more movement and drama with the coaches.
- Finally, PLEASE tune down the MVP and offensive awards that favor QB's that can run. If you sim 100 years, about 95 of the winners will be QB's with average passing but also happened to run 2000 yards. Maybe tune down QB scrambling overall, it's kind of insane.
- Second finally, since we're on the topic of tuning. Is there anyway to just tune down the stats a little bit? It seems like every season, someone passes for 7+ touchdowns in a game (I've seen 12). Also, the 2000 yard rushing milestone isn't even a challenge to the guys in this game, they break it all the time. Receivers also frequently go 2000+ with 20 TD's.

I love this game, but you kind of need to adapt your mindset that this is a world where insane numbers happen, and that's just how it is. I think the defense is tuned pretty well, it's just the offensive numbers that need help. Please implement these changes! Thanks!

Agreed, I've adapted my mindset but am still struggling with the QB rushing stats. I've been playing around with different settings so have run multiple test leagues (at least 300 seasons per league) and, in nearly every one of them, QBs top the rushing leaderboard. In my last two tests, QBs were #1 and #2 in career rushing yards.
