I thought I'd post the sliders I am currently playing with. They are my own but have been heavily influenced by some of the forumites here such as Charter, Tariq71, Mizzou24's, Imfromholland, etc.
These are for Franchise mode.
The things I like about these sliders are as follows:
- Different opponent play differently
- MLB, OLB and then safeties will get the most tackles
- It is harder to pass the closer to the endzone you get
- Running is challenging but rewarding
- There are big plays but not too many
- The user shouldn't get too many sacks per game
- Interceptions and fumbles will happen but not too many
- The whole playbook is open to you (end arounds, screens, QB scrambles, etc)
These are just my observations and each player's experience will differ of course but if you want to try them then they are:
