Having 90 passing doesn’t hurt your player. Maybe you had a bad season. My player has 97 passing and had 51 points, who lead the league in scoring? oh yeah a pass first player. Having high passing doesn’t kill your player, whoever told you that is a damn liar.

SC is better than PA overall but that doesn't mean that every SC player will dominate or that you cant have success as a pass-first player. This is not how this works at all. Plus it has been well known for years that SC is better than PA, it has basically been a staple of this league and hasn't hurt us too bad as we have still kept growing despite that problem. The only thing that has changed now is that we found out that the effect is a bit bigger than we thought, and that people completely overreacted to a select few test sims while ignoring all others that showed much more modest results. Apparently people love misery, it's just so weird to see all that masochistic doom and gloom talk here recently when it would be so easy to take a much more tempered and optimistic approach.

And yeah I don't get why the league doesn't implement some quick stopgap solution to curb the worst possible affects and to take away the asterisk that everyone will attribute to this season if HAM wins. Just say that Scoring can't be more than 15 or 20 points higher than Passing and be done with it, this will give you ample time to work on other fixes like the Forced Passer on Lines 1 & 2 thing (which I'm not really a fan of) and the eventual transition to FHM.
