I was just thinking it would make tackles co.w at a higher chance but with reduced strip (which is not super common anyway).

How is getting 40% better tackling at the cost of the AI not doing something it never succeeds in doing anyway "basically nothing"?

And giving the reciever 20% better catching and 100% chance to not get tackled for only a 15% iincrease in the chance to pick the ball off seems like bad math unless you're playing from like two scores behind

This is a big W

Great job all that I need to know is coach adjustment cheating

What?!?

Nice - good writeup

I had always run play ball, but after looking at the stats, not so sure. Any recommendations?

Im going play man, conservative strip, aggresive tackling, aggresive blocking.
