    I have one issue with this game...Why is the CPU running the ball so much?

    Outside of editing the gamplans in Play Now for teams like the Patriots, Packers, and Saints, I don't know of any other way to address this issue in CCM because you can't edit gameplans in CCM

    Is anyone else seeing this issue?

    Yeah it's pretty frustrating. I've played games against the saints where Brees has only thrown 15 times and they have run almost 30 times. It's really annoying when they run it on 3rd and long, I don't understand how this wasn't found in testing and tuned correctly before release.

      Pretty sure the testers missed to many things to name at this point. I did notice though when playing the vikings that once I got ahead 2 TDs that they stopped running the ball and did alot of passing but then my guys would not play man to man and I got beat deep on 2 or 3 plays.

        Yep. Have seen the same run first strategy just about every time. Really hurts the cpu offense and lessens the fun factor when teams don't play their style.

        Coincidentally, I was checking the stats at the end of the season and Gronk had something like 650 yds receiving and Hernandez had around 250. Both played the entire season.

        Clearly teams are not playing to their strengths.

          Some slider guys are finding that Pass Reaction Slider being low is causing this.. Put that slider at 80-90 and you will see the diff..

            Yup. The pass reaction slider is clearly tied to this.

              Interesting, so if this is true it would save me from not purchasing the game. Which slider guys are we talking about?

                SECELIT3 is testing and the pass reaction slider clearly effects this

                  is it the users defense pass reaction slider or the cpu's? Does it have to be lowered or raised?

                      I'll have to add to the Pass Reaction. Danny Woodhead just had 29 carries.

                        It seems to only be tied to the First Team. During the Preseason when the backups came in all teams turned pass happy, I was playing against Washington as the Bears. RG3 threw 7 passes in the 1st then Rex comes in and throws 48 passes in the final 3qtrs. It was about the same for the rest of my Preseason games, starters with low pass numbers and backups with huge attempt numbers. For reference I was playing 15min qtrs with 15 run off.

                          I could be off base here because my copy hasn't shipped yet, but:

                          In previous iterations, the CPU's run / pass reacted off the USER's Defensive run / pass...

                          So:

                          If you want the CPU to run less, play the run...

                          IF there's still a Coach Philosophy slider section, try setting your defense to 60 run / 40 pass...

                          They SHOULD sense you're "overplaying" the run and pass as a result...

                          Worth a try, IMHO...

                            No pass/run ratio on ccm that i have seen so far. Someone let me know if im wrong. Also i dont see any sliders but ill adjust the pass reaction slider and see what happens

                              Love the CPU running attack...but i do NOT see the cpu running too much..just on certain games they run a lot more than other games...but hey..i dont expect 1:1 gameplay to real life..that's just wishfull thinking there. Its a videogame..its not going to play exactly like the real deal to a T and have human level AI Logic...name a game that does and i'll give you a 100 bucks

                              The game is fun and exciting to play..the Poll proves that...a hell of a lot more people here think this game is great to good...than average to bad...the poll speaks for it all.
