Hello,

I want to preface this that I NEVER play defense and ONLY play offense and do kr's/pr's, so I know nothing about cpu offense. I also usually only play two quarters a game, btw.

I spent hours on a 4-3 pb and have now finished, for the most part, a 3-4 defensive pb. I starred the plays and it sure seems to make the game much better and harder. I used to be able to play on AM, but, now I am settled on AP.Cover 4 and some Cover 3 plays make the DB's and LB's act like idiots. I suggest comprehensive traits edits to all safeties - cb's and lb's - this is:

penalty = undisciplined and play ball in air = aggressive, along with lowered cpu tackling and facemask at 5 in mm and cfm. rest of penalties at default. tampa cover 2 seems to be the best coverage and cover match 3 is good also. here is the name of my 4-3 def. pb in vault:

search keyword: DEFENSE17 (this is an older file) AND CHOOSE THE MOST RECENT VERSION OF THE FILE.

I will upload my 3-4 def. pb when I get it completely done and update this post with the name of the 3-4 def. file. Below are my sliders for AM and AP. Look for SwaggerCoach's work-around in the "everything Playbooks" thread. Thanks and enjoy - feedback and criticism always welcome.
