I would never abide by most of these rules.
Why would I allow Corso to strategize for me?
How is this realistic? Teams often go for it when they're in good field position or their defense is not playing well.
So what happens if the defense gets pressure on you more than 10 times?
The fun, for me, is being involved in as many plays as possible. How would I get sacks if I play safety? How would I get interceptions if I play DL? But I might do this in the Race for the Heisman mode if I ever played it.
I'm all for playing your assignment. But players move all the time. That's how QBs anticipate blitzes.
I've been meaning to ask what a nanoblitz is.
Excessive shifts are unrealistic, but hot routes help to create defenses that are not in the playbook. I wouldn't use more than one or two hot routes on defense, but I wouldn't mind someone using more on me.
Tell that to real life teams that sit in cover 2 for almost the entire game, less goaline, short yardage, 3rd & long, ect.
But teams use them in real life in surprise situations.
So, if I'm losing by 10 with 3 minutes left, I shouldn't onside kick?
Agreed!
I'm all for realism, but you seem to have unrealistic expectations.
