I am having issues with completion % on short passes. We are one of three teams at the moment are under 60% by a long ways. So... what the hell? Any thoughts? Not varied enough routes? I took the advice and don't have a play in the gameplan more than twice. I am at a loss.

Stop throwing short when you have elite targets, I throw a heck of a lot of mediums, and look at how Fleming and Logan are doing… just try it

But ALSO you are completing short passes at 80%. So again, why am I struggling around 50%

But ALSO you are completing short passes at 80%. So again, why am I struggling around 50% I can’t look in game… so no concrete answer. But my assumption would be a mix of a few things ranging from bad dice rolls (I know, I know, not helpful), too many similar routes? What sets are you throwing short in? When are you throwing short? Who are you targeting the short throws too? One thing I’ve noticed between my targets and yours just on the HTML is that you spread it around a lot more. When you look at who nick targets, I’ve tried to do the same. Don’t spread it, just try and get fulcher and Goetz 15 targets a game each, and I’d dare say passing efficiency will go up. Game doesn’t reward you for spreading it around

Plus better cohesion and chemistry. Besides your short pct is no.1 and medium pct is 22nd. Ackermans AI is crap so I don't think increasing the risk of interceptions with lots of mediums is necessarily the way forward. I don't see anything obvious Jeremy. 5 games isn't really enough to draw conclusions, but the obvious stuff like QB, cohesion and chemistry will always factor in. Your formations and running game look okay. If you sim 5 games in SP a good few times the difference in the stats you are looking at would be a lot. We are performing way better in the short pass department. Way out of whack with previous years. I don't read much in to it, just think it's dice.

But what’s the avg/a in my medium? Also, let’s not pretend that fulcher and Goetz, even with an average QB should be pushing for 9 per target

Yeah it should be with Jeremy's but 5 games is a very small sample size.

Yeah it should be with Jeremy's but 5 games is a very small sample size. There are 3 receivers at or above 9 ypa in the top 25 or so receiving leaders in the league right now and two of those are on the Giants. Getting receivers to that mark is not exactly common knowledge for most of the league. Vern is at 8, and due to the low completion % Goetz is at about 7.5. Not horrible.

Damn, didn’t know that… maybe I should say getting 8 is the reasonable target then? But anyway, my general assumption with the gameplan is get the best 2 guys the most targets, as they will produce the better outcome. Why waste targets on other guys 🤷🏻♂️
