Offensive Tempo
March 11, 2013 at 03:14AM View BBCode
My team appears to have a good offensive line and a capable QB, but my offensive drives tend to stall out before putting points on the board. Far too many drives end with 4 and short. How do I get my QB to throw down field more often?
Here is a link to my roster:

Any help is welcome!

Ed Burse has great accuracy, but not a great arm; actually you don't want him to throw long passes. Pennywell has a better arm but not great accuracy.
Besides, both QBs have low, really low agressiveness which makes them shy when it comes to throw into traffic; they'll only attempt a pass when they see the WR totally open, which is a good thing, but don't expect them to throw long too often.
Pederson will attempt more long passes because of his agr, but he doesn't have the arm to make them successful on a consistent basis. However, in a "nothing to lose" situation (from behind in the 4th quarter), I'd use him hoping that he'll be on a good day and complete his long/medium passes.
Until I had a better QB (specially at Power), I'd rely on short passes + play action.
Keep in mind that short passes also come from Mid-long passes that your QB throws when your WR are not open.
