Do you all see that, where worse teams get more holding calls than good ones?

I had a game where I gave up 95 penalty yards, 90 of which were holding. The opponent also turned down another two calls as I was on fourth down. It was an outlier, I generally commit more holding calls than the AI, but not usually that extreme.

Injuries seem kinda non existant in my dynasty so far. Playing a two user dynasty with a friend and we haven't seen any kind of injury of substance in 11 games a piece. Thoughts?

Push injuries up to 55 and go from there.

Can someone please explain how to play defense? I am app st. I use the sliders. Old dominion puts up 5 tds 400 yards passing. They are 10 points overall worse than me. I don’t get it. I’ve watched videos. Play cover 3 they just find the opening every time, hurry up and do it again. Throw it deep my cb never left his starting blocks. If anyone anyone at all in here is having success physically playing defense against the computer please help. Or I’ll screen share my ps5 gameplay and you can tell me what I’m ****ing up. I am losing my mind.

Holding is out of control holy ****. I’ve gotten 7 called against me and half of them have taken away a first down. Is it because I’m only playing 11 min quarters? I don’t get it. I am Louisiana Lafayette. Obvi not a great team but I can’t run more than 5 plays without getting called for holding.

Everything else feels great , please help

I was having the same issue and asked earlier in this thread. I tried what he told me and it worked much better. Go back and read his post. Basically mix up your D. The AI learns and will torch you. Also, watch some YouTube videos of how to play D against the pass.

Without analyzing your running style here are some common culprits for a ton of holding penalty issues:

1) Holding Down Turbo. Be patient, only turbo when ur looking to burst through a gap / into the open field.

2) Run downhill. So often I see people zig zaggin like they're playing H2H ranked games. The more you alter your running path drastically the more likely your lineman are to grab on to a defender trying to disengage because you're now in the opposite direction you started. Same goes for WR's and blocks in the back.

3) Just take what the defense gets you. There's no need to spin around like a washing machine and juke so much you look like a Barry Sander's highlights compilation. I usually juke once or twice in a run at most.

I usually don't get more than a few holding / blocks in the back a game and haven't had a single issue even when the setting was higher.

I was getting in huge shoot outs and couldn’t stop anyone. I was lighting up the scoreboard but couldn’t stop a drive. Finally caved and turned on heat seeker , bumped up all other defensive sliders plus 5 and cranked down speed parity to 35. Boom! All a sudden I was slowing teams down and getting stops and not giving up 50 to teams I shouldn’t. I think the magic button is really the speed parity. It really helped my running game too. These are great base sets but not everyone plays the same and you need to tweak whatever gets you there.
