Yep, with negatives in other areas...at least in the earlier versions.

There is an asst coach assoc as well that they would have to pay for to get assistants in the game which sucks

I have no issue if they took the NHL route and having fictional coordinators. I thought that would've been the test for Madden. I thought if it was well received in NHL, then they would have been more comfortable having fictional coaches. I can understand wanting to be authentic. But when it comes to coordinators, I doubt anyone would really care if they were fictional. With most of the HCs calling plays nowadays, most don't know most of the coordinators. There are teams like Eagles, Cardinals, SF, Hou that don't have an official OC.

Just go fictional but with ability to edit them. I don't think coordinators are apart of an single entity like HCs are in Coaches Association. So I get it'll be harder to individual license the coordinators because you want everyone to be on a similar deal and don't want some opt not to be in game. Just go fictional, it'll be a lot more resourceful to just doing fictional coordinators

Yea but they could absolutely go the fictional route if they wanted. I may be wrong but I don’t think anyone has ever asked for REAL coordinators in the game, we just want HC, OC, DC and ST coaches. Make up the names and appearances of the last 3

Exactly. Most of us just want Coach Carousel and have coaches that actually impact games. I haven't seen one person complain that a Greg Roman or a Robert Saleh or Josh McDaniels isn't in game. Most would be happy with fictional coordinators with schemes, playbooks, and skill trees and see them get hired as HCs
