Quarter Length for Realistic Stats in Franchise Mode?

[Valdarez]

2nd Game against the Giants resulted in 95 plays, 600 yards of total offense, and 10 to 38 score. Seems close to right, but still just a hair low on the number of plays / yardage (but not score). Would like to get it up to 110 plays. Moving the count down from 25 to 15 seconds didn't seem to make any noticeable difference.

I play 11 minute quarters with 15-20 second run off and gett just over 100 plays a game, but I still get realistic stats. Usually 35+ passes thrown by Tom Brady and 6+ solo tackles by Mayo which is good in my book.

I play 15 minutes with 15 sec runoff and have been very happy with the results. I average 120-130 plays a game. This is on default All-Madden

15 minute quarters with 20 second runoff. I also get about 120-130 plays per game. I tend to take a long time to snap the ball, so I'm usually not snapping it until there's 5 seconds or less on the play clock.

The offensive stats do tend to go up a bit, but it also gives me much more realistic defensive stats. I decided that was worth the trade off.

I did 15 25 Sec runoff but the scores were just too high. I went down to 6-7 min Qts no run off and my stats are pretty realistic other than TOP and Plays Run. All i care about is that the scores and statistics are realistic and thats what I'm getting.
