Post-Patch Sliders

Hey guys, haven't seen any posts on here for awhile re: sliders. I know it's been beat to death, but any new insight, post patch? I have read each thread in here, so if this has already been discussed after the newest patch, I apologize (I'm not sure when it was released b/c I'd given up temporarily).

I know sliders are not the same as in Madden. I just want to come close, once, to actually winning a game I'm not straight simming. Either I'm the worst coach of all time (possible) or something else is wrong. I'm using a new playbook so I know that has something to do with it, although I have a decent number of mastered O/D plays. My team is stacked (1st season Bills) due to offseason maneuvering.

I tried making some adjustments to account for my less than academic knowledge of NFL playcalling strategy, but they still seem to reverse. I go from 50% of passes being INTs returned for TDs to 80%. From a shoddy run game to a non-existent one. A poor defense to high schoolers. I just lost to the Rams with an injured Bulger & Jackson 58-7, mostly defensive scores. My OVR avg is probably ~85.

I just started reading this forum today so I haven't had a chance to try out any suggested settings yet. I'm looking for someone's opinion on whether the previously suggested sliders still stand, or now need to be adjusted. Thanks! I'll try to contribute myself once I get better :|
