I'm with you on coach mode, I was ticked when I saw it wasn't available and even more ticked about the camera. I had Early Release so I gave it a shot playing the old fashioned way and.....I loved it. I still want "coach mode" and BCC patched and fixed in the game but I can't believe how much I'm loving the game right now. The draft classes and XP is making me really enjoy the game almost as much as when I first played Head Coach. If the fixes get in which I'm expecting they will this game will be the bomb.
