I think maybe if there were more effort from the CPU to extend plays and push the ball downfield or the threat of a CPU run game it’d be a bit different. But playing the same call all game is boring. I just started my third franchise, I thought the lack of CPU run game was due to me having elite front 7s in my past franchises, but in this one I have Chandler Jones, Michael Brockers, Chris Jones, and a Rookie on the line, plus Hicks and Reddick (who have poor block shedding) and I still haven’t allowed a 100+ yard rusher. The eagles ran for 100+ on me but with multiple backs. Sent from my iPhone using Operation Sports

I have found that the run game for the cpu is the key to it all. Better down and distance for the cpu is what makes them call better plays. It also forces use of different defensive plays because we can’t just sit in cover 3 like you said when getting run up on. Then you may have to blitze or stack the box. It’s just hard finding sliders that don’t run bad running teams into elite or have good teams average 1 yard a carry. I think the key is the run game . I’m working tackling down for the user and rb up slowly

Anybody having an issue with players with injuries not showing up on the chart?

I agree with you

If you are not afraid of the run game, you can concentrate fully on the pass

reports how that works with the downscrewing tackling

Yeah that’s what I think. In the red zone as well, I’m not afraid of them running it in and can also just drop into coverage. Has anyone experimented a bit with the run block slider?

Like you said I don’t want to have bad rushing teams be elite but it’s been pretty easy for me to play elite defense regardless of my personnel. Again, without usering anyone on my defense.

Just adding on, Jordan Hicks and Hasson Reddick are 1 and 2 in the league for tackles rn (my two starting ILBs). I have a solid D line but I don’t think it’s elite to the point that two average to below average block shedding LBs should be 1st and 2nd in tackles

Just a reminder that Matt’s mission statement says his sliders are all about gameplay not stats. Not making excuses, just throwing it out there.

I don’t think any of us are complaining about stats? It’s more the fact that I can call cover 3 all game and force the CPU to take short passes down the field cause I know they can’t get redzone TDs. I have a front 7 that should be mediocre at best stopping the run and haven’t allowed a single rushing TD.

The fact my LBs have so many tackles is not a stat complaint, I just think it’s indicative of how good they’ve been in run D and how clean my D line has kept them when they really shouldnt be.

Hey , I've heard people talk about the injury slider and saying it's set way different then 10...at first I heard it was up to 13 but now I seen some where people have it to 35 within franchise?? I have simulated 4 years of a All Madden , 10 minute quarter Franchise and I am in year 5 and looking through most of the teams I hardly see a injury. Typically I don't care for injuries to play a role but I feel like playing a realistic franchise build should include more of a role....So what should I set injuries to in 10 minutes
