Re: What position do you like to control on defense?

I play as the NT and try to play him like an actual nose would... crashing into other blockers and freeing up lanes for my linebackers and safeties to make plays. It actually makes defense fun against the computer as I get to see the defense work like it's supposed to work. I also rarely switch players once the play has started.

I usually try to find a player whose abilities spark an interest with me. I default to dline if my team is really weak but if I have a LB or safety who I really like, especially one I recruited who I want to have shine, I will use them.

Re: What position do you like to control on defense?

The position I control on defense is always correlated with the OVR rating of the player. To be more specific, the LB, CB, or FS/SS who has the lowest OVR.

I used to always play the lowest rated CB but the change to current gen took away the realistic player movement that I was accustomed to so its hard to actually cover the WRs now.

So for me its the lowest rated LB or Safety. CB was always the most challenging though. Its rewarding to cover the WRs and break up passes.

I usually control the lowest rated d-lineman. I feel like the CPU is much better at controlling a highly rated defensive lineman than a human is and I suck in coverage, so I just take the lowest rated DL.

Thats exactly how I play, I played only Free Safety for years, but realized that by playing DT or DE I could actually have a greater all around affect on the opposing team.

SS seems to be the position I play when I'm not positioned at the line for a blitz.
