features that i haven't seen discussed ( or have apparently overlooked) is inconsistencies in player progression. This IMO has really made franchise mode tough. For instance, I had a dynasty with the Bears and Devin Hester caught 74 passes for 1318 yards and 14 TDs.

The problem is that he only increased to an 80OVR going into the next season. I don't know if player progression is an easy fix or not but I know we've all had players on our franchise teams who have had breakout seasons and barely progress in ratings (and even sometimes not at all).

Is there a hidden potential rating for all players? Is there a threshold for progressions? Is player potential/progression random? Just wondering because I believe consistent/realistic player progression would make the franchise mode much more dynamic and entertaining. Any insight? Thanks in advance.
