    Favorite thing about Head Coach?

    I just wanted to see what all of you guy's favorite things about HC were. The features that make you come back and back and back, even though there is better gameplay in madden.

    Mine is the whole playbook knowledge thing. I LOVE the fact that my guy won't do as well if he doesn't know the play. It makes me really appreciate pre-season, and it affects my playcalling alot.

    Whats yours?

    Definitely the aspect of trading and signing guys that are the piece of the puzzle that can help you win through the playoffs. I like the drafting a lot better, as you can actually find out everything about a guy, as opposed to madden, where a guy can be 6'4", run a 4.18 and have "good" hands and turn out to be a nobody.

        Mine is the draft, it's really fun scouting and eventually drafting certain guys to your team.

          I love the draft... especially when I trade down a pic because I think I can get them later and they get picked the spot ahead of where I traded to. Love the scramble I have to do afterwards.
          My Teams:
          NFL - Washington Redskins
          MLB - Detroit Tigers
          NBA - Detroit Pistons
          NHL - Washington Capitals
          NCAA - Virginia Cavaliers
          NCAA - Arkansas Razorbacks
          NCAA - Michigan St Spartans

            You have to go with the offseason. Free agency, trades, All Star game scouting, the combine, and the draft. It's the whole reason for playing the game.

              the draft and the scouting process leading up to it.

              I had a rare stretch of free time yesterday and spent 6 hours in the draft process.

                The draft is fun and exciting, but my favorite part of HC is the preseason.

                I tend to play through the preseason in one sitting, lol. I just HAVE to see how my new talent shapes up, and make my decisions of who to start and who to sit.

                  I love the personality traits. U can make sure a player u sign or draft is compatible with ur coaching style. Or if u have a disruptive type u can get rid of em easily. That's if u don't mind the penalty. Very realistic feel to the game. I wish that I could initiate talks with guys I want to resign. Other than that I'm in love with it. I'm takin madden 10 back, lol. I wish they would make a NCAA version of head coach...........

                    Everything but the actual season, save for trading/signing free agents. I got Madden 10, got to the draft portion, and 5 picks in I just shut it off. How they could have such a great system in HC09 and not port ANY aspects over besides potential ratings (sort of) is just horrible. I really REALLY hope they do so next year. Already planning my next HC franchise.

                      The realism. Everything from expanded coaching staff, playbook knowledge, the health of players bodies, and the progression system. They are true milestones to football games.

                          Everything!!! This is the true football experince that ever true fan has been craving for years... The only thing that dosen't seem real are some of the godly stats that some players put up, but then in madden those are common... This game is amazing

                            I'm an offseason fanatic myself. Love doing the trades, signing FA's, scouting rookies and especially the draft. Preseason is great too, especially watching to see if the "Training Camp Invitees" your GM added to your team will pan out to be a great player, or another Ryan Leaf!
