Will coaches and/or coordinators influence what plays are called with Gameflow?

[countryboy]

First and foremost, if this is answered elsewhere, please direct me to it.

I am somewhat intrigued by Gameflow and was wondering if the individuality of the coordinator would play a part in how plays are called via Gameflow.

For instance, will one coordinator be able to pick up on what the offense/defense is doing quicker and make the necessary adjustments more quickly than say another coordinator?

Will a coordinator who is more agressive take more shots down field, or blitz more another?

The reason I ask is that its my understanding that plays called in Gameflow are based on what teams have done previously, but my question would be is it team based only, or is it tied into coaches, or is it a combination or the coach and coordinator?

Hope that makes sense...

I doubt it, but with the revamp of Franchise next year; I think that will be a step next for gameFlow because NFLHC09 had something similar to what you are asking.

Don't have a link, but I remember hearing the Coordinators have no effect on what plays are called.

I agree and I dont think it's directly team based either. I think preset Gameflow in Madden 11 is linked to the actual playbook that's used. For example, if a gamer was to switch team playbooks without implementing a Gameplan, Gameflow would pick plays based on that playbooks preset settings, not what team there using.

I may be mistaken though.

It seems pretty unlikely to me that EA would add enough commentary to Gameflow for there to be a real distinction between coordinators. It seems more likely that the scripts for each will generically apply to multiple playbooks/situations.

That said, gameplanning will really be the key IMHO. OCs and DCs will call fundamentally sound plays in a given situation but it'll be more up to the RL coach (ie YOU) to determine how 'aggressive' your playcalls are when using Gameflow/gameplanning.
