NOTES
-You have to change all pocket trait QBs to balanced. Reason is they basically have them disabled from taking off to scramble in too many situations making them do the ridiculous run across LOS to sideline before throwing it away with no defender in front of them.
-Dropped interceptions are the cost of doing business in madden. As frustrating as they might be, the game just doesn't have enough animations to replace the annoyance of seeing guys drop 2-5 a game. It's a visual sacrifice that has to be made in order to get best statistical results possible.
-Penalty variety is unfortunately limited in this game. On offense you can only really manipulate holding, false start and illegal block in the back. On defense its offside, facemask, roughting passer and DPI. IRL there are about 22 different penalties you see called every week and half doesnt even exist in Madden. I like to treat facemask like its also unnecessary roughness. Just have to accept the repetitiveness in order to see desired results of 4-8 a game.
-Autosubs were created with progressive fatigue off (will revisit when I make a franchise mod).
