Best Way to get your Rushing Yards Back
I thought you were the best bet. But I had the same. I ended up with positive rushing yards. But you ran a lot more back than me.

Currently I'm playing season battles (ONLY 65 Overall) and rushing to their 5 yard line or so, then doing work or other things while I get delay of game penalties to push me back to my 5 (Picking pass plays and scrambling counts as rushing yards, and passing to a receiver and running back is inconsistent at best)
Quote from gunit0725 >> Quote from EA_HeySteveDave >> Some food for thought: The maximum amount of Draft points you can earn in Season Score is 500. Achievements make up 20% (5% Achievements Completed, 5% Live Events, 5% Passing Yards, 5% Rushing Yards) of that number, so 100 DPs. Even if you wanted to skip all the achievements during Season Score, you could make those points up once the new season starts.

If your Legacy team is 99 OVR, you will be able to earn 11 DPs per day in the new season.
The point is, don't freak out if you can't get 100% of Season Score. Legacy will be available all season.
Quote from SneakyAmish >> So I take some time away from the game and come back to this? These season achievements seem petty. Never saw anything like this before in the past seasons. Love the fact that they are still forcing OD down our throats.
A few people that I know that barely played any OD have over 90% on the OD portion. (In spite of the fact that I and many others show 0 fans on the bar at the top, it seems like I got credit for somethign.) Are you really low for teh Season Score portion of the Overdrive Section? Any idea how the breakdown of these works for each section . (Adding to an explained thread.)

If your Legacy team is 99 OVR, you will be able to earn 11 DPs per day in the new season. So you'd only be looking at ~10 days of playing Legacy to make up the difference. That number is even less if you skip only the rushing portion (25 DPs, so just 3 days of playing).

I can get about 350 yards per 4 plays doing this, and am currently running a game now where i have over 1500 yards, it's still really slow but I don't think we have better options. I sure as hell am not playing OD to get these yards back.

Can you confirm if this is how it works:
I see in the chart it says: Get three plays a day and each event can be played once. So I can play the Full Game, 99 OVR and the 95 (or 90) OVR events in the Legacy Hub an that way I can earn 11 DP per day?

You noticed that, eh? (But yeah, let's just shower our masters at EA with praise) Thanks, guys!
Quote from MobileMUTMan >> Quote from Ccrane9 >> I still need passing yards on my Cowboys account. I guess those season games are the best way, but I wouldn't mess around too much with running backwards and stuff. Takes twice the time if you do all that. Just get as many yards as you can in each game

The Blitz Tournament solo challenges on the masters tab count, and are repeatable, so that’s one way to rack up a few hundred rush yards against an easy defense every two minutes.
Quote from Ccrane9 >> do yards from the live event games count like the powerline games? I think they did in past seasons
live events do not count. i tested this with the UL events :(
If interleague matches count, ask individuals who have had drives played against them to switch to an all bronze team? I also posted in another thread that if matches against friends help, I'm perfectly willing to work at my desk and just keep my ipad nearby and load matches and let you run against an all-bronze team I set up (if it helps, that is)

Quote from noregretlife >> Quote from MrWizzle21 >> Skip it. You don't need it if you can get 100% if other things. I'm -300k lolololol
Is that true? Its not 100% required?
If my calculations are correct, if you 100% all other categories you should be all set.
I would ask your commish to turn on rookie mode for intra-league match. Then you just run for TD and forfeit the drive (don't take 2point attempt). Or you can do back-and-forth in a single drive.

apparently you cared enough to post

Anyone have a better way? (I really don't give a crap if you aren't planning on getting your yards back)
