[Old School SD Fan]

On the + side, starting as an OC makes the coaching career fantasy work and the games go by much faster. On the negative side you feel helpless against the opponent because some games your D coughs up points every drive.

I scout my opponent and set my coaching D sliders before each game based on the opponents strength in running and passing. Don't know though if that affects the sim at all. In game, if my D sucks, I'll try re-setting the D gameplan to be more aggressive or conservative, but again don't know if that affects the sim.
