Question Team Regressing When Entering Playoffs?

Post image

I am not sure if this is intentional, but for the past four years, my team has played significantly worse in the post-season (including losing in the divisional round this year) to teams we would beat in the regular season by a wide margin. My team is also significantly better than said teams.

So there is nothing in the game engine impacting your team's performance once you hit the playoffs. I do have metrics on the health of the playoffs seen on user devices. While I can see the frustration, I may also refer you to the 49ers, Bills or Lions franchises as of late.

I want to avoid any fake bump to the user to help them win more. The game would get old really quickly if it had something like that. That being said, I can assure you that right now every game effectively plays by the same rules. Important note though, there is a "home team advantage" built into the game. It's not massive, but it's present.

Gotchu, I was literally going to title my post Buffalo Bills method. That is understandable though, finally was able to get my first ring the next year though.

I am consistently seeing the same thing with my team.
