Q4 4:27, 3rd & 5 on the RJ 44: Patrick Mahomes holds on to the ball too long and gets sacked by Denico Autry for a loss of 6 yards. Fumble on the play, recovered by Patrick Mahomes, who runs for 15 yards.

 

I swear, the amount of shenanigans in that game...

I think we need to just skip to the draft.

Spoiler

RNGesus has selected Ruskie this year, guys. It's over. The FLUCK continues, plus a blocked FG, plus an 84-yard KR TD. Incredible scenes.

Phoenix got an onside kick and a TD after a TD. If they hadn't scored so quickly they probably try another one, get it and win. @TheKillerNacho I think we honestly need to slightly lower onside kick success rates lol.

 

onside kick rates definitely have fallen over the last several NFL seasons from what they were and what the simulator is based on. buuut considering it also lacks timeouts which stretch the 4th quarter, I'm kinda okay with them where they're at. if they were the virtual impossibility that they are today, Id definitely have to extend team's "panic logic" beyond the scope of what normal NFL teams might do (or spend the time to finally impelemnt timeouts 😂)

Although i did just lower it a tad before this season... it should average out to about 1 in 4 recovery rate... which isn't too far off from surprise onside kicks, at least!

there's so many little intricacies that would require thought to emulate, too... a lot of the time, timeouts are burned due to communication issues or sometimes because the coach doesn't like the formation of the other team for the called play (the majority of the time, at least a couple timeout has been called before the final minutes of a half). I'd need to try to simulate this (I had a thought to tie it into a new Coach attribute) or teams would always have their timeouts at the end of the half which would itself also be unrealistic.

Agreed, but to clarify, the special teams plays went both ways - we had our attempt blocked.

Spoiler

Josh Allen has had Mahomes' number in NSFL lately, hopefully we can avenge our earlier loss and reach the championship.

Honestly, I sort of love it the way it is. If it was between lowering the onside kick odds and implementing timeouts or leaving it as-is, I think as-is works well enough.
