ive been through the same thing, i know how you feel. whenever i get on a big losing streak i start looking to new PBs. sometimes i switch, but most of the time i realize that the book im using is still pretty good for me.

what are you looking for in a book? ive been using the west coast book lately and im really liking it. you could base your entire offense on any one of the sets it has, which is pretty rare (IMO).

singlebacks: big wing, twin te wr, trips bunch, 4 wide, 5 wide bunch, slot strong, normal

nice i form section with normal, big, twin wr

nice split backs with twin wr and 3 wr

far normal and 3 wr

near normal and close

strong i normal and twin wr

weak i normal, close, twin wr, tight twin wr

it doesnt have an shotty but from what ive read you arent too worried about that. fun PB to try, and good for compression if thats your thing.

[RidinDirty]

try minny i bought it today. That guy kobra knows what hes talkin about. good stuff.

[blondetom]

I go by playbook by this lise I made
Chiefs-39.0
Bengals-39.3
Skins-39.4
Pittsburgh-39.8
Ravens-42.2
Packers-42.7
Balance Run-45.7
Run Heavy-49.8
I try all of them except the ravens, I think I may have found something in ravens to get to go to pracitce mode here in a min. I think I can run this really good. Plus I like to run the ball. It does have a nice I-form.

[RidinDirty]

good that sounds like a start. if you have your doubts dont be afraid to holla at Mike Tice's PB

[jerseyjay14]

where is the greenbay playbook on that list? it has the fullhouse formation and is nasty and balanced.... i swear by it.

and ridindirty...

ALUMINUM!

TAKE A LOOK AT THE PITT PLAYBOOK AGAIN. I KNOW U LIKE TO RUN AND THEY HAVE SOME ORIGINAL ZONE BLOCKING SCHEMES OUT THE I. MIX THAT N WITH PLAYACTION TO CHAD JOHNSON AND U WILL END THAT LOSIN STREAK.

CIN PLAYBOOK IS OK BUT TAKES AWHILE TO LEARN.
DET IS NICE BUT DOESNT FIT THE BENGALS.
RUN BALANCE IS OK BUT IT TAKES TO LONG TO LEARN HOW TO PASS OUT OF IT ONCE PLAYERS START TAKING CHAD JOHNSON AWAY.
PITT NICE PLAYBOOK, GREAT RUN FORMATION AND ALOT OF DOUBLE MOVES FOR YOUR ATHLETIC RECIEVERS TO GO DOWN FILL ONCE THEY LOAD THE BOX ON YOUR RUN GAME.

one problem with that though he have to play a slow paced game if that is not his style of play then he's going to struggle with this book 2 Pitt book dont have enough power to keep pace with everybody but if he can do that then it will be a good book for him. IMO

well your about half right. I do like to play slow place game. but, I can keep up with so I don't have no problem with that. Your making me feel like a old man.

ha ha not at all I'm just telling you from playing with that book since the beginning and people i know that played with it ask Kobra he'll tell you the same thing.

[blondetom]

to be honest, pitts is the first one that I looked at when the game came out, right now I am looking at the bills and pitts pb. Any takers on the bills pb?

between shotgun trips bunch and shotgun 2 back how do you not have "enough power" to keep pace.

Formation wize yes but plays no but if he can get around that then he's set.

Pitt's book has the same posts, drags, slants, ins, outs, curls , stop and go's, and option routes that every other book has. Everyone high passes this year anyways. It's not like you can't hot route your wr's based on the coverage you see. maybe that's his problem...not the playbook...but reading defenses.

probably so that might be it

[CapnKill]

It's not the playbook, it's the fact that you're not sticking with one. How do you expect to get results when you're switching playbooks every other day?

Just pick one and stick with it!!

[RAZOR]

try Oakland pb. I run and pass with this pb. I like the ravens, New Orleans-run heavy had very little support 4 passing.

Just pick one and stick with it!!Yep. It takes a long time to really know any book. If you just jump from book to book you will never master it. You can only be so so. I have been playing with Pitt since the start and there book and I am still learning little things here and there with each play. Remember the same play is a little different against any number of sets and formation not to mention your own so I am not sure how you really know what can work and not work against what if you keep jumping from book to book just because you are losing. You will continue to lose in my opinion.

try INDY's playbook ...thats the playbook i use....

[GBerger038]

when i went on big losing streaks i used to do the same thing. i would also try to find a new team. i kept comon back to minn pb and the cards. ive got everything figured out now. u just gotta keep at it and eventually it will work.

dude im having the same problem. i think im have a crap load of bad luck. Im fumbling balls on returns, my running backs are fumbling. My defenders are dropping easy interceptions. I dunno, maybe im just sucking right now lol.
