Re: Tight Ends easier to use then WRs?

This works consistently throughout each game, with every team I choose. I try to mix these routes into my play calling especially if the QB has struggled completing passes.
Yes. I throw to my TE's quite a bit. I use more routes (streaks, ins, outs, slants, hooks, slant outs, posts, corners, speed outs, etc..). Regarding your offense though, I can think of at least 5 adjustments I'd run that would force you to change your plan and/or execution to move the ball consistently using this method.

Don't tell me... You're playing the CPU?
