Never finished a full season yet. I guess I could SKP through one and find out. If anything you'd just have to change the teams that switched HC's, I'm gonna guess.

Game 2

This game was actually not as close as the score. I screwed around in garbage time, way too much. Woodley and Polamalu go down early for me. Ziggy Hood pulled through, with a stellar performance on defense. One of the TD passes to Wallace was a brilliant coaching call, by myself.
Great tackling animations, hard hits over the middle on receivers and some nice toe tapping catches all in this game.

Seattle got 3 interceptions and none for the Steelers. Was Ben hurt, bad ankle? ;-)

Game 3

Now this one was a doozy! It came down to the wire. Manning is really cerebral in this game with all the audibles and shifts. In the end, a strong running game and press defense is all it took to stop Mr. Manning and company.

By controlling all 32 teams, do you physically go to each team and update their depth chart each and every week? Or does the CPU manage this fairly well? Or is this something you can update at the beginning of the season since as I understand the players ratings do not change throughout the year, only hot/cold streaks?

If so, could you just update the CPU teams depth charts at the beginning of each saeson and be done with it? I guess that would change if they signed a FA that was better than the starter though, huh? I'm just trying to get a feel for how much human intervention is required when controlling all 32 teams. Thanks

Not much at all. I mean, you're still gonna have to interact some, but not too much. It's actually better that you can control all 32 teams, so that you can do any necessary tweaks anyway. The CPU will act the same in either situation, control or not. I have the CPU doing all my tasks. Kind of a luck of the draw type of deal.

This is how I am playing and I really like it. I just let the cpu do all my roster moves in offseason and I just play the games. I have been getting really good games with this set. Thanks again for the work and posting them!

Thank you Elway! I will try these out tonight. I currently play Madden 08 for PC Coach Mode and love the heck out of it. I used to own NFL Head Coach... I think it was succumbed to the slob roommate eviction.

How do scramblers perform? I'm curious how the CPU handles the rushing aspect of QBs. AWR plays a very big role in Coach Mode. Wonder how Tebow and the option would do.

And as far as GMing (Off-season) I do a McDaniels and run the whole show, tell the owner to sit on his butt and watch me run wild with his money.
