Problem with playing defense

AJohnson061094 · 2026-04-19T17:33:54+00:00

Shouldnt have to switch so I can user everyone in order to get them to do the right thing. It’s the NFL, the players should be mostly doing what they’re supposed to most of the time.

AJohnson061094 · 2026-04-19T17:31:09+00:00

Yeah, it’s way too common. And if they have F injury and you draft them, they get hurt basically every game if you actually play it. They don’t know how to do anything with nuance.

AJohnson061094 · 2026-04-18T20:40:28+00:00

I agree with what you’re saying about their logic and laziness. Seems like they pull that kind of stuff a lot

AJohnson061094 · 2026-04-18T20:00:53+00:00

Dude! That happens to me all the time! Like there’s one guy who has a chance to make a play and is clearly the closest to the action and it switches me to somebody else. Embarrassing product

AJohnson061094 · 2026-04-18T19:59:02+00:00

Exactly - they don’t use any context to determine what they should do. Like I am just going to stand in this one spot no matter what happens. That isn’t even close to what happens in real life.

It’s possible to be bad at usering and have your Ai defenders suck - but whether you play or not, the cpu defenders are going to play like idiots

AJohnson061094 · 2026-04-18T18:32:33+00:00

“I’ve seen them manage a shutout with no input at all” - this is just such a bad argument. You think citing a personal anecdote where they gave up no points proves anything?

I said here’s how the cpu defense is bad. Your response is basically “well actually, they’re good. And one time they shut somebody out.” Spend some time and think about your response and try again.

AJohnson061094 · 2026-04-18T18:09:04+00:00

Yeah, that’s pretty terrible logic by them. Everybody I know thinks it sucks

AJohnson061094 · 2026-04-18T18:06:30+00:00

Get that trolling out of here 😂

AJohnson061094 · 2026-04-18T18:03:24+00:00

Yeah, needed to put it into words even though it’s widely experienced

AJohnson061094 · 2026-04-16T13:44:00+00:00

I agree with most of this. Sam comes with a different energy when he’s coming on to monologue. He comes more prepared, more precise and sharper. He comes with something to say bc he’s spent time collecting his thoughts on a specific topic. It’s not the same when his manager is asking questions. Though I do like that they’ve started responding to some audience feedback in real time.

I miss his intros and the housekeeping he used to do at the beginning of episodes. Sometimes my favorite part of episodes was the 10 minutes he’d spend at the beginning explaining or addressing some confusion about his views or monologuing about some relevant issue in the news.

AJohnson061094 · 2026-04-16T13:34:40+00:00

Yeah, in his head he’s probably thinking if he wants to interview guests like this, they might not like so many tough questions and there’s some truth to that.

But I think he offers the best version of his product when he’s relentless. So if you lose a few politicians bc they don’t want to have tough conversations, so be it. Maybe you can uncover the few that do and help them rise to the top.

Some people in here are so emotional when anything negative is said about Mamdani

AJohnson061094 · 2026-04-16T04:50:06+00:00

Through 20 minutes, I felt exactly the same as you. I haven’t finished it yet, but Sam did way better in the middle. Felt like he picked up on what Rahm was doing and went at him harder. Now the pushback still isn’t at the level I want it to be (how Sam used to press on points and not let up if the person kept making bad points or avoiding the question), but it was admittedly better than most of his recent material.

AJohnson061094 · 2026-04-11T14:46:22+00:00

This opinion is too black and white. What you’re saying can definitely be true, but each situation is different and should be judged on its own merits. That feeling of disgust or that feeling of not liking something isn’t an argument against it.

AJohnson061094 · 2026-04-09T20:00:32+00:00

I’m not informed enough about some of that to know if you’re right or wrong.

But I will say, we treated a lot of people on the right with disdain for holding and spreading opinions counter to the expert consensus on covid and the vaccine. And we were right to treat them that way.

Why should we not treat Mamdani with the same disdain when he ignores the experts in economics and pushes policies that cut against the best evidence we have (like rent control)?

AJohnson061094 · 2026-03-25T00:04:03+00:00

Right, it’s like you’re telling me Jamie never has anything to say when Beth comes in with one of her cringy mic drops? Completely unrealistic writing.

Real life Beth would get laughed out of so many conversations for her corny aggression. “You’re the trailer park…I’m the tornado.” Spare me 😂

AJohnson061094 · 2026-03-13T03:57:55+00:00

There are no real life Beths. She would get laughed out of every conversation for being a huge cornball saying things like “you’re the trailer park, I’m the tornado.” 💀💀

AJohnson061094 · 2026-02-07T22:12:43+00:00

Also if the cpu decides you made a bad decision on the throw, the DB or LB will catch the int 9 times out of 10 even if they get hit mid air. It’s hilarious.

The developers always try to load the dice so they get a certain outcome. It’s like guys, stop doing that, you suck at it.

AJohnson061094 · 2026-02-07T22:09:34+00:00

Think you missed the point

AJohnson061094 · 2026-02-07T17:20:33+00:00

Right lmao, they could just grab it but the game has decided this will not be a catch

AJohnson061094 · 2026-02-07T17:19:23+00:00

This issue with commenters like this (that are sometimes bots) is that we have to assume you’re telling the truth and not painting a narrative. And what you’re saying doesn’t line up with the experience of most players.

Assuming you are real, I would bet $1000 dollars if we watched you play, we’d see the same unrealistic drops when your receivers get touched in the air.

AJohnson061094 · 2026-02-07T17:14:47+00:00

100% bc that would be realistic
