How to sub in 2nd RB?

[TheDutchDad]

So I have Ronnie Brown, and Felix Jones who I just drafted in my Broncos career...is there a way in game for me to sub in Ronnie, or Felix right before I call a play so I can rotate them on a regular basis, rather than waiting until the pop up on the clipboard comes up asking if I want to sit on of them or put them back into the game?

while in-game, rotate your clipboard to the "Gameday Info" panel and go to your Depth Chart and you can do it from there.

i just do a quick-sub at the playcalling screen. i try to keep willie parker as fresh as possible, and i find this is the easiest way to do it. let mendenhall run a few plays, then quick sub willie back in. nice thing about doing it like this is that it tells you how well your backup RB knows the play youre calling, so you can avoid calling an unlearned play.

Yeah, thats what I was looking for. I didn;t want to rearange my depth chart, but just sub in Jones after a few plays with Brown, and vice versa....can;t believe I never even saw that before. That helps.

is that done by clicking on the "Sub 2nd String" or am I missing something?

Because one thing I hate about Sub 2nd String is it puts my damn punter in for field goals and I end up forgetting about it and missing the field goal.

You hit X on the 360.

I just fired up my box to check real fast, and when you are on the play selection screen, you hit X for the Xbox, and it brings up the Quick Sub feature. There you can make a sub for anyone on offense or Defense. Just for laughs, I subbed in Patrick Ramsey at HB for a play...he got 7 yards on a pitch out right. lol.

Damn, how the hell did I miss that? Thanks.
