Alright personnel gurus ..

For curiosity I put in my weights for returners (punt/kick)

Speed 100
Kick Catching 100
Avoid Fumble 100
Break Tackle 100
Ball Carry 100

Same player as a returner yields the following ratings:

Punt: 51/71
Kick: 59/80

Common sense tells same player + same weights = same rating .. so why the difference?

Maybe acceleration is factored in for Punts. ie..Need to be quicker

Kick and Punt Returner positions both have really strange weight settings as their 'ideal'. Should probably be in the bugs section, honestly.

I guess a better question is what else is needed as an attribute for PRs?

Intelligence? To know when to fair catch? Or, if the ball is caught, to make that initial cut?

Looks like its been nerfed now, but I found some quite good CB PR/KRs

I weight those attributes and Acceleration.

I don't think 100% acceleration is a good thing, I like my blockers to be able to get into place before the returner starts his route.

The only one I weight at 100 is kick catch.

This guys best ratings are INT and DIS. Next ACC and carry then speed and strength. An above average player is my best punt returner by far 20 average and double digit TDs. Kick catch is applicable at best but sufficient .
