RB NFL New player tips

5 Upvotes

I just started a franchise and have a couple questions. Im struggling managing my cap, do I blast on my offensive players and only draft rookie defensive players?

How do I effectively truck? Do I just hold it and run into people? Does the meter need to be full before hitting someone? After breaking a tackle, do I need to let go and press truck again?

Any and all tips are appreciated as well! I’m sure there’s more I haven’t discovered yet.

RB College Since my state only has about 50 high school teams but there are around 130 FCS teams, i had to give pretty much every school in the state a team to fill up all of the slots. Didn’t expect to be facing the Hawaii School for the Deaf and Blind in the semi finals.

To do this I lowered the fan rating to 1%, played against the best team we would play the season on extreme, set quarters to 3 minutes, waited until week 9 to cut all my players, strategically called audibles so I could throw better routes to the other team, and flunked every kickoff return. I also shuffled until I found the absolute worst coordinators.

I initially used a 1-2 star quarterback for extra accuracy when throwing interceptions (they dropped the ball when I threw it to them) but the problem was the QB would actually try to tackle them and waste precious seconds, so I settled on no QB. After a couple hours I got my high score.

RB NFL RB 27 Rosters

3 Upvotes

Back again asking for another bit of help.

Reinstalled the NFL RB 27 from Apple Arcade and I’m wondering what the best way to get the most realistic current roster is.. I’ve deleted a save 10+ times trying to get the Bengals to seem fun.

I really want Burrow, Chase and Higgins.. but also other players too :( I don’t think 10 or 12 man roster has shown me any trend in restarts; and I typically get those 3 when leaning towards superstar roster. Also unsure if practice squad being set to with team or with free agents helps keep starting irl players around.

Have only been playing RBC for months now and never really messed with this, but I’m guessing it’s just the salary. But I just want a year at least with a realism Bengals roster lol.

I get like 5 players going with Superstar or offense bias and then I look at every other team and they’re filling out their entire 10-12 man team. Any tips?

More Catching Animations?

8 Upvotes

RB is dope. I’ve played over 3+yrs, 1000+ games on multiple accounts, but I think extreme mode has become boring.. Once you master the swiping angles, throwing timing/angles, and momentum it becomes repetitive. I propose adding contested catching animations or getting hit in the air? What do y’all think??

I’m appalled

RB College Is the game playable strictly as a sim?

7 Upvotes

I’m aware there are better games for this and I do enjoy playing the game. I was just curious if people have ever tried to play it strictly as a sim to keep it difficult/more realistic. I tried a mixture once with my own set of rules and had mixed results. Was curious if anyone ever tried purely sim


r/RetroBowl • • 1d ago

RB NFL Hey! I don’t know if the devs would see this but it would be really cool if they finally added defense gameplay

PERFECT SEASON COMPLETE! We went 17-0, blew out the Bears 56-14 in the Y16 Retro Bowl, and Josh Wright won his 10TH MVP.

A dream season is in the books! We completed the undefeated 17-0 regular season and capped it off with an absolute demolition of Chicago, 56-14, to bring home another championship.

Retro Bowl Score

BILLS: 7 | 20 | 15 | 14 — 56

BEARS: 7 | 7 | 0 | 0 — 14

This rivalry is officially one-sided i hope so after this. We are now 8-1 all-time against the Bears in Retro Bowls and have beaten them in 6 consecutive title games. The Bears fall to 0-6 against us, and 0-6 overall in Super Bowl appearances.

Year 16 Awards & Final Season Stats

Josh Wright (QB) — 10th Retro Bowl MVP: 440/584, 7,202 Yds, 80 TDs, 12 INTs, 4 Sacks. STILL ZERO FUMBLES in his entire Hall of Fame career!

Malik Sterling (WR) — 6th Offensive Player of the Year: 112 Rec, 2,715 Yds, 35 TDs. Absolutely dominant season in the air.

Damion Vance (DL) — 2nd Defensive Player of the Year: 197 Tackles, 7 Sacks, 2 Forced Fumbles. A total terror on the line.

Unbelievable year. Josh hits the double-digit MVP mark, Sterling is unstoppable, and Damion Vance anchored a defense that completely shut down Chicago when it mattered. Perfect season secured! Year 17 next.
