I did my third game with these changes. offline CCM.
Played against Seahawks.
Flynn - 22/33 for 274 yds.
Lynch 18 rushes 82 yds, 4.5 avg.
I lost 27-17.
Certainly has been working for me, and I've felt like the game was competitive each time. I still throw too many picks (one of which led to a pick 6 this game.)
CPU offense still passed on first and second down.
The CPU even passed late in the game to seal the victory when they could have ran it out and drained the clock.
