It is not the solution if your looking to play a long term franchise. And even when I did the QB edit roster...it was all dink and dunk and absolutely no down field passing.
After this latest tuner and with these sliders the CPU plays a very good game of football.
Yes...sacks are still an issue...and you can do a few things to try and keep that in check.
1. When you user control a DE/DT do not jump the snap - this is a way to nerf your advantage and have to fight harder through the line
2. Play as a LB or DB/S and not be ont he DL all the time.
Even doing that you will see some higher sack totals sometimes. I have learned to live with it till another tuner/patch arrives.
The game plays awesome despite this wart. I don't want EA to nerf defense all together because sacks are too high. I am still losing to the CPU....badly I might say sometimes. LOL.
To each his own but try focusing on all the great things the game is doing this year instead of the one thing it is not.
