The fact that he's talking about using 3 or 4 hot routes on one play should tell you exactly where his priorities are...

Horse****! I'm glad you are enjoying your unranked games, your 10 minute quarters, and your realistic stats. I am as well but I also like to play ranked games online, and for those games the accelerated clock should be off, especially with only 5 minute quarters.

That foolish fight for the fumble should be off for online games as well.

I think that they can and I think that your not giving the individual position players or QBs enough credit to adjust based on what they see. They can make hand/foot and verbal jestures all at once. What 'I' have to do in the game takes longer than it would a QB and players to communicate. Thats why I need a bit more time.

Hey, if you just want to call a play and hope for the best, be my guest.

Yes, it's in there and I was THRILLED to see it because motion was a crappy thing to do without it. STUPID that they ever took it out, but that's a whole different subject.
No, those are defensive assignments, which are stolen from 2k5.

Man lock was the name of a last gen feature that has yet to make the important jump to next gen where the following can happen:

Set to ON: if in man, you show man, if in zone, you show man and all zone players shift their respective zones. For example if you are in cover 2 zone under and the O is in a I form twins left, your #1 CB will line up as though he were in man with the WR, but he is actually in zone coverage. The #1 CB's flats zone on the other side of the field is now the assignment of the LOLB, that LB's assignment is now taken by the MLB, the MLB's now taken by the ROLB, and the ROLB's assignment is taken by the #1 CB.

Set to OFF: When in Zone, defenders look like they are in zone, when in Man defenders still look like they are in zone. In the above example our #1 CBN would now be in man coverage but show zone by staying on his side of the field. Now there is a man miss-match as the ROLB is in Man against a #1 WR and the #1 CB is in man with whom ever the LOLB should have been in man with, normally the TE.

There are advantages and disadvantages to both options, the most key being to throw off coverage reads by opposing user QBs. Again, like I said, "Oh, you thought it was man, but it was zone. thank you for the pick 6 sir. Now go pull the plug because you are bad at football."

For a standard 5 minute qtr online game, it can be a little annoying at times.

Especially on first downs after a change of posession. I feel like I'm pretty much trapped into my play call.

Other then that, Im pretty used to it by now.

If you just hot route 3 receivers and a running back all day, what's the point of having a playbook?
