Anyway, Trade Logic is solid … no taking advantage of the CPU … BUT you can Control the coach of any team … trade the player you want (I always throw in a 1st round pick for the other teams 7th round pick and the player I want … for example say I wanted McFadden on my Bears I could control the Raiders Coach and Offer McFadden & a 1st RP to the Bears for M.Forte & a 7th RP (they won’t accept without the pick … then go back to controlling Lovie and trade that 1st RP back to OAK for the 7th … they will gladly take it back and for example I wanted Payton Manning to sign with the 49ers (just where I wished he went) I can control John Fox and Cut Manning (can’t trade him because of his CAP # … but if CAP is off the trade example above will work) then take control of Harbaugh and sign Manning. I personally sent A.Smith to MIA. Now same things works during Weekly games play whatever game you want then start new career NEVER RETIRE Coach or Player still will be the week you are in and the stats you out up in your other game will still be the same. I played as the Bears then MIA then took over as R.Ryan made Tebow the starter then started new career as a player to control TEBOW … threw 3 picks but did it all in week 1 and all the stats from each game carried over no freeze … which I knew was gonna happen. And I’m not even telling you guys all the moves I made in the preseason. Check them out Put D.McNabb on ARI Put N.Collins back on GB Put Shockey & T.Harris on my BEARS Put K.Kolb on DEN (No Manning) Put V.Young on MIN And the lsit goes on … still would be sweet if I could edit positions but the Depth Charts work … it ain’t perfect but it’s a work around … the best part about this game was the gameplay anyway and I found a way to still enjoy the game the way I wanted to play it.

This sounds real time consuming.

Only roster changes like cuts and free agent signings stick. Depth chart, formation subs, playbooks and schemes dont stick.

I can say it works pretty dang well as far as trade...

I was able to trade Wayne Hunter to Rams and Jason Smith to the Jets and got back both teams picks to correct place.

I think this will do wonders for some offline chise guys...lets test and test before it becomes a solid work around...even if its time consuming

So I have a question. Let's say I am doing a CC and I play the Saints lets say week 1. Knowing the cpu run problem, could I change to the Saints, change their playbook/gameplan or whatever it is, and then switch back to my team and play the Saints? Will the Saints use the gameplan I set them for that week?

Yeah but when I created a new character the coach I used to be was replaced by a new virtual coach. So say if i want to play/or view 3 dirrerent matchups in week 2, each coach i leave is replaced by a new coach. By the time I've reached week 8, even if I just play 4 games/week, the league will be filled with replacement virtual coaches!

For example, say I switch to the Browns and make them start Weeden over McCoy. When I switch back to my original team, Weeden will stay the starter UNTIL I advance a week. The Browns will play that weeks game with Weeden as the starter but will immediately switch back to McCoy the next week because he is higher rated. Still the work around works great for limited 32 team control (Browns always seem to sign McNabb but you can cut him and the cpu wont sign him back), trades and to play every game. Doesnt work for schemes or depth chart changes.

Hopefully when the next roster update comes, they fix the ratings of all the starters to rate higher than the back ups. That should fix this problem.

That only happens if you use a created or legend coach. It doesnt happen if you use an active coach.

the only problem in this is that you cant go back to your original team. for offline at least. i dont know about online
