3rd string can still play against 1st.

put the packers 3rd stringers in on both sides and my results were this.
3rd string qb for packs made a few short throws and could not throw down field unless he wanted int or a player was wide open, which was a good sign.

1st string Seattle D could not get through the line though at all against all O line players in there 60s. Very sad to see this.

Lynch could not run at all, had very tough time getting through and breaking tackles.
3rd string wide recievers still caught the ball decent enough and I even had TEs in at wr in the 50s.

Wilson still threw 2 picks against bad cbs and safteys.

Was using roadmans sliders.
Has anyone other than me tried this yet and what results did you get?

I put an OL at TE for GB and noticed he released off the line, ran routes and performed after the catch on par with any other athletic TE. Didn't behave at all like a 300+ pound lineman.

What was the difficulty on? This isn't good but it's not like you will ever play vs 3rd stringers? It does tell you that difficulty>ratings as far as gameplay goes.

It's not likely that you would ever play your 3rd string vs a team's starters, but what this does is make all roster building in franchise mode completely useless.

yup. it does make franchise mode worthless if it doesnt matter about ratings.. why are they in there? typical EA.

Patrick Willis is a beast at TE in this game. One game so many of my players got hurt on offense that Patrick Willis had to play TE and he was beastin.

The worst part of this is the problems with the pass rush. It just goes to show you that 4-3 DEs are completely neutered in this game and their ratings mean nothing.

So frustrating...
