So, I am curious what you guys think of this situation. I use the Browns and have found that a certain 'PA Rollout' play in Ace-Big formation is basically my money play.

After seeing the video about money plays on XBL (featuring David Ortiz) I felt less guilty about going to this play when I need yards...

However, I find myself going to this play quite a bit more when I am playing a team without the "Smart Defender" weapon. Since no one on the other team has a clue about this play, I take advantage of it. (I guess that is technically cheesing). But, isn't that also the point of using and exploiting the new weapon system?

Your thoughts, please.

no, there is nothing wrong with that. everybody has money plays. if u use it as often as i think u do, facing someone like me they will find a way to stop it.

if they are smart they can send a blitz around the edge and pass commit. That pretty much makes a sack out of any PA

Ya, players PA one or two times against me, and then they figure that out.

one thing I love even more is when people try to sprint backwards with Kurt Warner and throw off their back foot all day and then get mad when they get a bunch of pick 6s

Personally, when I find a 'money play' I strike it from my playbook because I don't take any satisfaction in winning by exploiting the A.I.

I figured that would be the case... I dont take satisfaction in it.... but i found myself justifying money plays because the producer acknowledged them existing.

I will not use "money plays" against the cpu, but against human opponents, I will use them within reason (i.e. I will not use the WR Double Pass and HB Double Pass in any situation). Because the cpu has absolutley no adaptive intelligence, it is straight-up not fun to play unstoppable plays. However, because human players can adapt to my playcalling, if I find a play that I like running, I will use it until the player proves they can stop it. I will never use any plays that are considered "glitches" though (although sometimes I'll throw an unintentional rocket catch).
