Seven tactics mistakes that lose games you should win
Losing games you should win? Rich Dean's checklist starts with balanced schemes, Mixed roles outside linebacker, a Dual Threat on a passing offense, the same attitude every game, and starting players by overall.
Rich Dean's checklist for a team that is losing games it should win. Each one is a setting, so each one takes a minute to fix:
- A balanced pass and run scheme. Pick one pass type and one run type
- Mixed on the tight end, the defensive line or the secondary. Linebackers are the only position Rich sets to Mixed
- A Dual Threat quarterback on a passing offense. It never helps your passing
- Aggressive with 4th & Short on Take high risk. It goes for it recklessly and almost never kicks a field goal
- Screens on Often. They are only worth it against heavy blitzers
- Setting it and forgetting it. Check your attitude again before every game
- Starting by overall. Start the best substat for your scheme
Keep a fail-safe as well. Even good players read an opponent wrong, so when the read is unclear, Rich goes Aggressive on defense with Blitzing on Rare.
Each of these has an article of its own: Attitude: match their defense, counter their offense, How to scout an opponent from their box scores, The Offensive and Defensive Strategy screens, setting by setting and Pick your starters by substat, not by overall.
These settings come from Rich Dean's Football Head Coach 27 videos on YouTube, and imswimduck gathered them into a cheat sheet for the community. The game publishes none of them, so use them as a starting point and see how they hold up in your own games.
