OK....before the talk of thresh gets out of hand...I have historically had several major issues with high thresh. That said; I have seen several things change since the last patch in terms of functionality and I have not assessed threshold recently. My historical issues with thresh are as follows:
  • It introduces more suction and warp blocking.
  • It nullifies acceleration (which is not sim). Basically, a 90 SPD/90 Acc player is the same as a 90 SPD/80 Acc player.
  • It affects the run balance. Typically, with higher thresh, the outside run game is too easy because it condenses that speed differential...allowing the O-linemen to get to blocks they shouldn't be able to get to.
  • Coverage becomes too tight, resulting in the CPU QB throwing too often to the RBs and TEs instead of targeting their receivers downfield.
Now if you can tell me following a good sample size that none of these are issues, I would be willing to give it a try....color me VERY skeptical though.

I totally get the appeal of high thresh...it is visually very pretty...but I am 99% sure that the improved difficulty you are attributing to the thresh is more about the fatigue/injury sliders than it is the thresh.
I am worried a well changing 3 different variables at once, not sure which one might truely help gameplay, I am willing to try 1 at a time to see. which one would be first I should try josh?
