I'm seeing just the opposite. Our league is in preseason so I don't how much that'll change when all the starters are playing.

Good to know, thanks for the reply

Oh dear. That's bad to know but I feel less bad about restarting now. Thanks

I'm pretty bummed that this patch seems to have destroyed the Skills Trainer. It runs at what appears to be about 12 frames per second.

Any fixes?

Played 5 games in my offline 32 team control franchise. All-Pro, no slider adjustments, normal speed.

Now, I'm in the first week of pre-season, so that's both good and bad for testing this patch. "Bad" because there's no real way to gauge actual challenge from the CPU because of playing with back-ups. "Good" because I can see the differences between higher and lower rated players.

The main thing I'm seeing thus far is that QB accuracy seems to be a lot more realistic. Back-ups are struggling in mostly mid-range attempts, floating balls and missing curl routes that end up as INT's. Also noticing an improvement in incomplete passes off of throwing across the body on a run, even from starters like Cam Newton. I don't think it's perfect, but it's a definite improvement. I'm also noticing that OL/DL battles are looking a bit more natural for me, and I notice an increase in pressure on the QB when the back-up OL's are in.

I'm also really happy that they got rid of the constant drop down menus when you did a move on the line. Every time that happened, I thought there was a flag on the play.

Overall, I'm pretty pleased with what I see.

I'm seeing the exact same thing. Also, more dropped passes like it was when released. Punting accuracy sliders need to be adjusted lower for both Human and AI.

Finally got a game in with the new patch. Just one game but fairly impressed. Was able to get constant preassure in first half with elite pass rushers. Had five sacks and the qb evaded the rush a couple times and made big plays. Second half the throw ball as soon as I would break block came back and wasn't much fun. I also got sacked 6 times as my timing was off. Blitzes worked against me with preassure actually taking deep routes away.

I was going against a 97 overall scrambling qb. If they could make the whole game play like that first half and add the qb taking off when they should this would be an amazing game on the field.
