EA...Do not touch gameplay

I'm not a pro, but I like to think I'm pretty quick on the adjustments. When I see a no huddle I wont even bother making more than 2, but a lot of times I just keep 2 man under in my audibles and if they hurry up and think I'm not changing my play they'll be surprised when it's not zone anymore. I've gotten a few picks doing that this year.

Yes, that is a more realistic approach. If a team goes into a true fast paced no huddle, the defense is always in scramble mode.

They should work on making sure the AI lines up quickly to their correct assignments, nothing more.

I've watched some Streamers who think the no huddle offense needs to be addressed because they can only get 1-2 adjustments in before the hike.  It's not that way on old gen... so I have no first hand experience.  Some of these players have a complex series of adjustments and they're usually lightning fast so it must be bad.  I don't think the defense needs a lot more time to setup but they should be able to pinch or spread their line, slant them... and shade coverage.  I don't like the super adjusty players who want time to also bring down their Safeties... or slide their slot CBs in towards the Dlinemen... that's overkill.

Offense can’t make 30 adjustments either. Most of those streamers have to make 30 adjustments so their nano blitzes get home. Agree with OP….pretty balanced right now. Typically EA tinkering and xfctors eventually screw things up.

I actually agree. Outside the missed throws I've really had no issue. Kickoff returns are annoying but my short attention span will still kick it off even after they return 2 on me lol.

They need to fix match coverage because its still broken also some of the rpo plays the run blocking is to good or the defenders go dumb.

With the increased number of players hitting threshold, game is very balanced. All EA needs to do is fix match coverage and then take the rest of the year off. 

Game play is really fun fight now.

I think right now this is the most balanced game they have released in years. You can run, pass, and defense is starting to catch up. 

Combine that with no major glitch plays,unstoppable nano blitzes, and the excitement brought back to ST, this game is really fun.

But the community will complain, then  EA will over adjust to kill something in the game.

I say they just need to balance the reward system, work on cross play servers, and make sure they don't mess up content releases.

Hands off EA!!

A few things they should address, no debate. They should fix how match coverage rules work (it’s busted this year) without a doubt. I also have seen rumors they will address loop blitzing, which is just dumbing out the OL. Anyone advocating against these aren‘t  interested in a truly competitive game.

Gameplay feels nice, only 3 huge complaints…

- zones don’t move, even with 90 rating. Might be an awareness & play rec issue though

- zones feeling sluggish, man is a must and it’s wild how good man is again this year. once loop is patched send 6-7 shaded down man will be king.

- wide outs catch everything… it’s crazy. They need to tune this cause drops don’t happen as frequently as the should. Reward good defense. Shouldn’t be who gets ball first or at half wins.

honestly… keep AP the way it is. Nothing feels like a must this year outside of apprentices. They won’t but hopefully through the superbowl they don’t do anything wild.

idk my dudes be dropping passes even wide open, finneran can catch a contested ball, but throw him a ball where hes booty butt naked open and bounces off his hands. i think drops are just rng rn.
