Playing offline franchise. Is there a way that I can just call plays and have the CPU execute them? Works for run game, but with passing the QB stands there with the ball until they're sacked.

I understand having to kick the ball during special teams and I'm fine with that part, but I'm not interested in actually playing. Just calling plays.

In your settings outside of CFM turn on Coach Mode. That will make the QB throw for you. He will NOT scramble though.

My game keeps making me watch the opening redskins and rams sequence. Also makes me keep selecting my favorite team. Do I have to delete all my data to get rid of this problem?

I noticed when the clock gets under 2 minutes, the accelerated clock stops, except when the cpu is winning trying to run the clock out. Is there any way for me to turn this on so that when I'm winning and trying to run the clock out I still have the accelerated clock on?

Sort of. There isn't a way to turn the normal accelerated clock on for the last two minutes, but on the play clock screen press L1 to cycle through the tempo options to "Chew Clock". If the clock game clock is running after you've selected your offensive play, it will wind down to 10 on the play clock, taking however many seconds off the game clock with it.

Obviously, this is only effective if the opposing team has no timeouts. And make sure the play you call will be able to snap within 2-3 seconds - that's about all you'll have once they make it up to the line. Some automotion plays can force a delay of game on you if you use Chew Clock, so they're better off avoided in this situation.

When you see the clock wind while the CPU is trying to protect its lead with the ball under 2 minutes, it is utilizing this same feature.

Awesome, thank you. I remember seeing this in NCAA, didn't know it was in Madden too
