Very very very rough game, had a lot of issues.
Two random teams, I got lucky and got the Colts, played against the Bills.

My defense was nearly nonexistent. Impossible to stop the run, no matter what method I did, just could not stop it. Man defense, zone, man and zone blitzes, spies, played as lineman, played as all 3 linebackers, played as safties...could not stop it. One touchdown came off a 80 yard run where CJ Spiller just effortlessly ran around my defense like they were practice cones.
Every pass was thrown to a wide open receiver. EJ Manuel should of been 100% completion rate if not for a dropped pass and two over thrown. My coverage was not there at all. Didn't get his first incompletion until the end of the 3rd quarter where CJ Spiller just dropped a checkdown.
Touchdown came off a 60 yard fade route where my corner was just caught sleeping and got burnt.
Had to completely abandon my run game because I was struggling to keep up with their offense, but from what I was able to get from it it was very smooth, realist blocks and defensive reactions.
Passing game wasn't easy but also wasn't too hard, not sure if it was because I was the Colts with Luck against Buffalo's secondary. Had some wide open receivers that shouldn't of been, and some completely locked down. Some throws that should of been picked but were not. Definitely need to be smart where you throw it and know when to scramble out or just throw it away. My biggest rush of the game came from an Andrew Luck scramble for 23 yards.
Had a lot of injuries, 6 to be exact, none were serious, but just an annoyance. My injury slider is at 72 so I'll drop it and see how it plays out from there.
Weird thing happening with the roughing the passer penalty too. On deep throws after the ball was thrown and caught a defensive lineman would get blocked into the QB hardly touching him causing the QB to drop to the ground drawing a roughing the passer flag. Had this happen while I was on offense and on defense.
This was only my first game with your sliders, so far I liked them. Game played very smooth and was much better than my last time playing. Hoping the defensive problems were just flukes. Gonna try a couple more and see how they pan out.
Also, what are your settings for game speed, ball hawk, strafe assist heat seeker and switch assist? I usually play very slow, and all options off, curious maybe this is why I had problems.
