This league has just begun! Because this is a new league, it will be a few days before the allocation draft begins (the countdown timer above shows when the first pick will fire). This is a great time to get a team as you will be able to build it from scratch! If you don't want to wait for the draft, though, check to see if there is a team in an established league that you can take over.

NOTE: As of the last sim, this league was under the minimum 20% capacity. Invite your friends to join MyFootballNow to keep this league alive! Then send them to this league to become the owner of a team! The league will expire at 8/01/2025 8:00 am.

Repeated use of plays not working like it should.

https://mfn71.myfootballnow.com/log/2310 Washington called the same running play the whole game but most of the time the defense is the one that got warned for calling the same play. My game plan has 4 out of the 6 goal line defenses in it. https://mfn71.myfootballnow.com/gameplanning So it was the games choice to call 3 Deep Zone Under more then the others. But the others were still called and most of the time that run play still worked without warning for using it too much. He ran the same passing play repeatedly as well but that wasn't as effective.

Play overuse penalties are only stated if the outcome of the play is negative for that side. However, they are still being applied.

The bigger problem is that play overuse only impacts a player's technical ability (bonuses applied to non-improvable skills), so unless your players are superior athletes (i.e. have >Speed), you will never "see" the overuse bonus anyway. And, I'm almost certain, it doesn't really matter because of the relative value placed on Speed and some other non-improvable skills.
