I revised my probability script to include long passing plays again. Once it finishes running I'll drop it in a thread somewhere.

For full disclosure, it requires more than a little stats knowledge to understand. So feed it through ChatGPT if you get confused. ;)

thats awesome seth, thanks a bunch, just learning about ChatGPT, looks real interesting! It will be nice if we can use a couple of long pass plays or more again and reduce the % of sack or pick. It can only work fairly if we all use the same settings for personnel for offense and secondary & linedbacker for defense. And not have specific rules that will interfere with the normal Ai selection. From what Ive seen and experienced in this first season, we're not far off, the personnel and coverages that are not being used need to be increased to overcome the Ai coach tendency.

Something is still off because I don't have long passing play data, so I'll have to run it again while at work and hope it finishes by the time I get home.

In this league the only rules I'm using are to control when to go for it on 4th down and a defensive rule to call attack 3 against the 230.

Thats about it, or Attack 2. Ive been thinking about specific rules to overcome Ai coach "faux pas", like not kicking a FG with 2 minutes left and up more than 17. Also when you are in solid FG range at end of the 4tth quarter and want to avoid turning the ball over as much as possible or taking a sack that would put you out of FG range. Or when you are trailing by 14 or more with 10 min or less left, no run plays. Same for trailing 7 with 2 or 3 min to go.

Never mind this. I'm the problem here. And I fixed the output: https://fcs.myfootballnow.com/forums/1/101?page=1&x=IFNdCOVPB8#598
