If you're expecting the same players (more or less) to rise to the top as did historically, then your settings are wrong. You need to turn on recalc. Numbers are most reliable with a one year recalc, though most posts I recall reading recommend three years to balance out career paths.
Someone (I forget who) posted that if you're playing without recalc on, you're playing a fictional league that just happens to have recognizable teams and names. Now, there's nothing wrong with that....but nor can we be surprised when someone's career deviates very sharply from their historical performance in this case.
