My first game using 2.0 was a barn burner. Admittedly, not a realistic one, but fun anyway. There were 4 lead changes in the last 5 minutes and New Orleans prevailed basically as time expired.
The running game felt a little better, so too did comp %. There were more long balls and a sizable number of penalties that helped the game feel good. The outburst of scoring at the end has me a little nervous though.
Admittedly, New Orleans has a very good offense and their defense is at best suspect. We'll see how the next few games play out.

I appreciate the feedback. If you've got any boxscores you can post it would be helpful. The more people testing, the better the set will ultimately be. That said, I need data to prove out what you're saying.
Admittedly I've only played 1 game with slider set 2.0 so far, but I finished with a combined 61.4% comp pct and 4.05 ypc. That's just about spot on.
SO first off love these thus far
but i have a random question.. what is up with the tackling ? i see this like green crest or cone when i tackle and an X i feel like i have Zero control when i go to tackle like i mean to go one way but my guy goes another ?
Total. Domination. CPU was only 9 for 29. USER rushed 287 yards. Maybe I moved some of the sliders too far, but it seems weird that USER & CPU sliders could be so different. We'll see how the next couple of games play out.

Great job so far. I played a half yesterday on the 1.0 sliders and will try to 2.0 out later today and provide feedback. As a coachmoder my self, mainly on the NCAA series for years I am now making my move to Madden. I am looking for the same thing you are with getting the game a close a possible and still making it competitive, because the CPU can be dumb sometimes. Seems like the AI is better though. I will post when completed.
