lol it is not routes. For one the red route is your primary option, not your checkdown.
It is not the play art. I am talking about the formation select screen where it shows a diagram of the formation. Players are color coded to display fatigue levels. Green=good to go, Yellow=a little winded but fine, Red= Gassed. He needs gatorade.
