Some things I noticed throughout:
- Early on I was getting super frustrated with the AI's running attack, I thought for sure they were going to run for over 250 yards. Luckily it ended up evening out.
- First 2 plays of the game I got called for holding. I cringed, but this also evened out.
- I found it difficult to tackle, it usually took 2-3 or more guys to get the RB down.
- The opposing RB easily broke tackles. This didn't hurt when they ran it outside, but if they ran up the middle it was an automatic gain of at least 6 yards.
- QB accuracy seemed fine to me.
- INTs were also not an issue. I did have a wide open shot at one which was unfortunately dropped.
- I was having trouble running the ball myself. If it wasn't for a 60+ yard TD run by Newton it may have been an embarrassing effort on the ground.
The game was exciting throughout and was definitely a challenge. I would have won for sure, except Deangelo Williams FUMBLED ON MY OWN 20 yard line with just over 2 minutes remaining. All I had to do was run the clock out. One first down would have sealed the deal. I didn't use the 'RB' button and the D picked it up for a TD to take the 23-20 lead. Oh well I guess.
I will keep playing to see how these continue to play out. |

Just to be sure, did you play this in CCM?
Reason I ask is I just did a division game in Play Now and the division rivalry logic took over. I saw some of the same run defense issues you saw but it was inside and outside. Eagles ran for almost 400 yards. Eli threw the ball to wide open guys and the ball went out 25 degrees off angle, he had 5 INTS. Maybe one of those was on me. The rest were totally on the CPU gimping QBA.
But if you're in CCM, then your rivalry game looks great, and so maybe the division rivalry gimping of the user is not a p[art of CCM. I hope!
Thanks.
