Foul trouble settings for bad players Topic

OK, I understand how I like to use "foul trouble" settings for my best players - "more aggressive" is a higher risk-reward setting, while "less aggressive" is an extra-safe option, so I pick how I feel, usually setting them to "more aggressive" because my team is deep and I have a fallback option.


But what do you guys use on the bottom of your depth chart?  

I have a very deep (one B IQ out of 22, rest are B+ or higher) 11-man roster that presses, with my three best players playing roughly 25 MPG and the other eight distributed from 20 to 12.  Team averages in ATH/SPD/STAM are 73/78/89: I have 3 players under 70 ATH (worst at 50,)  3 under 70 SPD (worst at 47,) and two players under 85 STAM (82 and 76.)

I've never set the bottom 4 guys on my depth chart to anything other than "normal," but I'm a very hands-on coach and I'm thinking of changing that.  But what do I set it to? - "less aggressive" for these guys means that my starters will be playing more, but "more aggressive" makes sense because it's much less damaging if these clowns foul out.

Set them at normal

You do not want to set your starters AND backups at the same setting. It can actually negate the results. Strange but true.
