if they add defensive match ups and formation subs/custom packages then for me as a a mainly defensive orientated coach type there is only one thing left ... play design

let me explain, this is offline only. last year and before there were plays like nickel 3-3-5 cover 3 man which isnt there this year. the way i construct my roster is safeties and my 3-4 mlbers have high prc, and zcv before mcv. in m15 the play had cb 1/2 and fs playing deep. what id want is nickel cb and both safeties playing deep, especially if you package s to nickel. imagine if you convert the play where the nickel is actually another lber and lines up as if 3-4 but the play becomes tampa 2 like and the nickel (lb) plays middle deep ...

or there are very few man plays in base 3-4, why not press a button and convert cover 3 sky to cover 3 man for the same formation, versus full house or multi te formation that makes more sense to me

anyhoo sorry to point out stuff that is probably stupid but makes sense to me as a Brit

For the auto flip feature, do the players switch positions or just assignments ? For example, Fletcher Cox is a 3 technique; in a 4-3 over he'll be lined up over the outside shoulder of the guard on the strong side, the right side ( the user's right ) by default. If the offense flips the formation, and the TE is on the left, will Cox line up over the guard on the left side ?

The question would be the same concerning Sam and Will backers. If the offense flips the formation, and the TE is on the left, will the SAM be playing on the left side where the TE is, or will he be on the weak side playing the WILL ?

No, they only change responsibilities. According to Clint the reasoning is that not every team does that and not in every situation so they couldn't account for every permutation.

Good question but i don't think so. The devs have said LBs won't flip either just switch assignments

CFM will either make it or break it for me. Except for tackle battle, I like the direction of Game Play last year and this year.

No Defense Assignments

@r0kybaby there are not def. assignments, but with new coverage concepts, you won't need them
