Now, setting it to 75 seems to rectify those issues, but I have had concerns about it being so high that it could be causing things to go a bit wonky from a fatigue perspective. As shown below, I've been exploring setting this to 50 as well...it's been more balanced overall.



I've been going with this setup as well (except I am setting it to All Madden in MM and All Pro in CFM) and it really does play a nice game. I've been having games where lower-rated CPU QBs (like Mariota) have missed a half dozen throws(like, where they miss the receiver in the middle of the field...not as much as I would like as I haven't seen as many from high-rated QBs, but it's a tad better). I still want time on this to make sure that I really want to go down this pathway.

I know people are going to ask questions about this, so I am posting a copy of the entire setup below. It is ridiculously simple, but effective.

People are going to ask why I am setting the MM to All Madden (with CFM on AP). The short answer is that it has worked. I don't know conclusively that it does anything, but this is what I have been rolling worked and I have been pleased with the outcomes so far.

One thing: For my play style, I "user" a d-lineman at the start of a play; and it can sometimes be tough to generate a rush when you are out-manned (which is how it should be). I do not know how effective this setup might be for those who "user" other positions on defense. It might be fine, I just don't know.
So you no longer change the FGA and FGP in the main menu? And you also leave offensive PI on now?
