Since the "Running QB" flag appears to affect a players skill on the field, can we make sure it is removed from the Otters starting LG Cliff Hamilton in the sim file?

So instead of playing a LB at the DE position, you would just take a DE, change nothing else about them except what the sim calls them, and you get an immediate upgrade at the DE position.

Are you saying you take Jayce Tuck and tell the sim he is an LB and he's really good all of a sudden?

I'm saying I took Dan Miller, changed nothing about him except the he's now called an LB, put him in the DE slot and he started putting up 2+ sacks per game, 2+ PDs per game, and would have an INT about every other game. Absolutely insane.

They were getting a bunch of TFLs as well, so there was a lot of running on us. Keep in mind, we would still lose games, but the changed players put up more stats.
