Good find, I just assumed.

Gore was consistently gaining yardage against me. I won the game 17-9. Some CPU stats: Smith: 21-42 Gore: 26 for 132 (5.1); long of 23 The 49ers had a 31 run/42 pass ratio. It's encouraging to see this from a run-heavy team. This was on All-Pro level sliders.

I like Gore's stats and the AI running like that on All-Pro? Nice!

Edit: saw your run/pass split. That's 58% pass - high for the 49ers, but maybe they were behind at one point, etc, especially late when down 17-9 and needing the tying TD.

Ok, I read back through this entire thread before posting, so I need some clarification.

This will allow you to call offensive and defensive plays and just watch the CPU run them. The QB will be controlled by the CPU as well, and will throw the ball instead of sitting in the pocket waiting for you to take control of him. I set up a test online league to check this out, so it should work for all modes I believe. Thank GOD they patched this in!!!!!

So is true coach mode in or not because those two post above seem to imply that it's in. Is it just not in for online yet? I am just trying to get clarity.

@SloeyEZ, the posts I quoted much earlier clearly seem to state there was going to be a true coach mode added, I don't see any ambiguity in what was stated by Dewiel and then confirmed by Emmdotfrisk. Feel free to read them again in the OP of this thread here and point out where you feel something could have been lost in translation. The only thing I could see as being misunderstood is that true coach mode would only be available offline.http://www.operationsports.com/forum...l-you-use.html

They had Jacobs as their #2, but he only got 4 carries. The total play count for the game was in the 130's. Kind of high for my liking. I was using 15 min quarters. I had a 17-3 lead at one point which had to have something to do with the high number of passing plays for the CPU.

is it me or now when players get tackled its like they got shot???????? i played a game between me browns and cmp redskins and every tackle it seemed when getting tackled the rb and wrs drop to there knees and fall flat on there face?. and i thought the tackles of hitting them and them flying half way across field was bad i'd rather have that then this now. also the patch didnt fix the catch and freeze issue where u throw ball and wr just stops.
