I don't know if it was just this one game I played, but it appears that the punter of the opposing team was punting always 50 yards? Has anybody else observed this?

I'm pretty sure that's a known issue.

Do you mean exactly 50 every time? Or 50 or more? I was noticing some longer distances on punts, but I'll bet that's because of the fact that the ball is not snapped back far enough.

Mine is returning punts. The other team in the PBP says punted for 0 yards.

50 yards everytime.

In a quick-play Canadian rules game, I was getting 50 and 57 for every kick (punt or kickoff) in the first part of the game. I then started getting some numbers in the 40's as well. At first I thought that the game was calculating the punt distances wrong, but then I realized (assuming that I was doing the math in my head correctly) that the game was counting the distance from the kicker, not the line of scrimmage.

However, I did get two situations in a game where the computer team had the ball inside their own 10 yard line, and punted. In both cases, the ball didn't reach mid-field, but the punt distances were listed as 66 and 68 yards. Those two were wrong.
