I have a deep CB corps and now, going in to next week, my dude has the frost icon - he's cold. His OVR is now more like a 78. Now, purely from a depth chart perspective, his OVR makes him my #3 corner. If his cold streak is rigid, then I should play him at the nickel until his three weeks are up. But if the streak duration is itself dynamic, maybe based on some player attribute (maybe some players are more streaky than others), I may play him as a #1 next week anyway hoping he snaps out of it fast. Or, if I'm decent playing user controlled corner, I can take him over and try to force him out of it myself, even though his OVR at the start of the game is low. But, if the streak duration is fixed, and no user control will make a difference, I should just stick to my preferred control of a DT and drop him on my depth chart. Now, I actually think streak durations will probably be variable, but no more than 3 games. But I have not seen that made explicit anywhere. So that's why I'm asking.

That is a good question... do cold/hot streaks last 3 weeks no matter what happens? Like, what if the CB has a really good game the second game? Does that end the cold streak, start a hot streak or have no effect at all?
