Like anything else in the game it is all subjective. To me the changes they made added a ton of depth. Last year to me Owner mode was unplayable, I am not big on the prices part but I love relocating my team and to me between the endzones not changing for real teams and the uniforms being stuck on an episode of "I love the 90s" it was unplayable. I spent my entire time in coach mode. This year it sounds like owner mode will be useful to me.
