Some impressions..
1. About the pass rush toned down... well maybe.. i've played a 2 games, and in one I had 3 sacks and the other 2 or 3. The CPU Qb does have more time in the pocket, which means we have to tighten up man coverage, or raise the speed threshold slider to compensate, because the Dbs are not jumping the routes.. this will make throwing curl routes viable again. Although in one time my wr ran a square in, the db was right there with him, and swatted the ball away (I had 6 sacks with my cpu controlled DE in one game, gonna miss that)
2. The cpu ran the ball well on me, but I think the rush defense (hum) and rush offense (CPU) slider has to be tweaked in order for the cpu to have 100 + yards in a game.. saw covering the ball a little, not too much
3. My rushing was good, in one game only had like 150 and the other game 300 (play with GT BTW so I run the ball A LOT)
4. Sometimes still seeing the cpu blitz too much, maybe we have to tone down cpu aggresiveness in to see what happens
5. Also in one game, cpu was over 70% and in the other game was like 54% completion percentage.. saw some overthrows, which was nice.
6. Zone coverage was BETTER.. had 2 int with my LB that was playing the middle zone.. also in one pass I threw it, had two LB in the zone, but somehow the pass lobbed OVER them and I completed them
It may be a good idea to put the speed threshold back in 50, maybe this will help leveling man coverage
My only real gripe now with the game is that they blitz too much in 3rd down, leaving some routes open for easy first downs
About run blocking.. if you can run the wishbone on the inside for 6 yard gains, or 20 yard gains, or run a wishbone counter for 80 yards, I can say it is very good
About playaction .. ran a bootleg with no problems and also ran a wilcat pass with my back, he faked it, no no one near me, threw a LONG pass and it was a little off!!! greatest thing ever
Although, I sacked the CPU once in a PA,but only because I blitzed 3 persons!
