What gameplay speed do you play on?

Reason I ask is because I always played on normal and changed a couple things around.

Changed the speed to slow, upped the sliders a little bit to make it harder, and changed the camera on passing mode.

The end result? A lot less interceptions. I always averaged 10-15 interceptions a season but now into game 5 I am having the best passing ever. 10 touchdowns and one interception. And it's not like I'm playing with Manning, I'm using the Bucs with Griese. I feel with this camera mode and the gameplay slowed down a bit I feel I get to read the field a lot better. Seems actually a little bit more realistic to me as normal seemed rush but hey everyone has their own style of gameplay.

I play with it set on fast. The more you slow it down the more it feel like Madden. The NFL is Fast.

I bounce back between slow and normal, but most of the time I have the game speed set at slow. I also feel this helps provide more time to scan the field. Most of my INT's are caused from poor decisions/reads that I make.

That is on the low side for Griese..... yet you wanted it to be easier? Sounds like it was realistic, 10TD and 1INT is a bit on the unrealistsic side, wouldn't ya say?

Re: What gameplay speed do you play on?

I'm sorry but 2K5's passing is so natural and easy, even on the hardest setting. To need to slow it down so you can read the defense is pretty bad since you SHOULD be making your reads pre-snap and while your QB is dropping back. The vast majority of my passes are thrown right after I've finished my drop back & bounce step to gain maximum accuracy. Plus playing on fast seems to make the transition animations look more natural to me.
