I hope "new concepts" includes double teams, non press reroutes (chucking within 5 yards) and finally the ability to bump the TE without having to manually do so...

Darn! It seemed like the perfect complement to the in-depth defensive upgrades. Quite a letdown, really.

I mean, you always want your best player covering the opponent's best player. Seems rough. And this does not make hopeful for formation subs in CFM...

i vaguely remember prior to the release of 16 when news was being released and they said no defensive assignments that they said something along the lines that it almost made the cut, but they wanted to do it right.....how did it manage to get left out this year?

Formation subs are an absolute must at this point.

I know you're a Pats fan. Was just saying they only play Sherman on one side of the field. And I don't think they have.

I'll give you that, recent results don't indicate that much was learned.

Oh well, sucks nonetheless that defensive assignments are out.

That's one team that runs a zone scheme, a man team might play differently. All depends on the coach
