Madden 17 CFM: Coach vs Owner

[Bondsfan]

Just wondering what everyone is playing their CFM as, coach vs owner? I've always gone owner in years past, but I'm wondering what the positives/negatives of playing as a coach would be vs playing as an owner.

I'm trying to figure out the same thing. As coach I can edit what my coach looks like. As an active owner there is a bug where coach schemes won't save. So it's either custom owner or coach. I think I'm going custom coach as I don't want to deal with fixing stadiums or money besides the cap. No desire to move my team.

Playing as a coach for the first time in years. Owner mode did not get any updates vs previous versions while coach is more in depth.

Too bad as coach you can't pick your trainer and scout staff members.

What are the coach updates? Are they only available in coach and not as playing as an owner?

I'm torn, because I really don't care about managing hot dog prices, but on the other hand, I do like the idea of getting to hire/fire personel. I'm just not sure what exactly the differences are between coach and owner beyond the team moving and concession/parking stuff.

Everything you can do in Coach Mode you can do in owner. So you're still the coach.

Really in owner mode you're adding all the financial stuff, plus the ability to hire a staff and fire your coach (In Soviet Russia the Owner Fires You).

There's also media stuff, fan happiness, etc.

If you're just looking to play and build a roster, go coach mode. If you're interested in running the entire franchise from trainer to talking to the media, go owner.

Is there a way to edit the coaches if you are the owner?

I've written a few pointers about coaches, owners and playing the coaching carousel here:
