I started a CC as a QB, undrafted, and ended up going to the Falcons. Backup to Matt Ryan, and it's nearly impossible to gain XP. Pre-season and practice are the only ways to earn XP, and with practice, I have to practice 3 weeks to move ONE category up ONE point. I feel like that system is flawed. For example, if I was an 87 Throw Power, then yes moving to 88 should require some work. But moving up from 56 in Awareness shouldnt take 3 weeks to get to 57.

Also, in the practices, the super LB's/DB's seem to come out. I wish on deep routes the receivers would also jump for the ball instead of the DB making countless interceptions.

I understand that sometimes a backup QB is going to be on the bench for a few years, and I like the challenge of having to move someone from nobody to hall of famer, but doing practices for 5 seasons is just boring.
