CPU vs CPU just keeps playing without having to pick plays, kick, challenge calls, accept/decline penalties, etc.

In coach mode you would have to do the penalties, challenges, and I believe kick/hike too. Not 100% sure on that last part though.

Well I saw the coach mode selection in the settings but it states clearly this is only if you don't control the QB after the snap and that he will throw the ball. That to me isn't being able to sit back choose the plays or let the cpu select the play. Or do I have to change the gameflow option...it has been 2 years since I played Madden the last time. And for the most part this is looking like a better game but I am a real lousy player especially on defense and that is why I enjoy having a coach mode. to where the CPU does the work for me after I call the plays

CPU vs CPU isn't avaialbe in CFM as far as I know. When I go to my game to play, switching to the middle is not available. This option would be nice for people like me who work at home and like to have the game on the side to watch while i'm working.

The whole setting prices bit in owner mode is extremely lame. There are no costs associated with the products so everything you sell is contribution to offset your fixed costs. Very lame.

I tried coach mode with the early release and what I found is I can call playand watch the action unfold. The only playing I had to do was kick. Unfortunately the QB will not scramble which is lame. This was my first attempt with coach mode and I was surprised that I still had the option to take control if I wanted to.

One thing worth noting. If you play in Owner mode, then when your coach leaves, you have to start spending development points on your new coach. You don't keep whatever packages you bough on your last coach.

Do you still have the XP system for coaches in owner mode
