Another dumb question: MUT Styles what do they do?

[Kiyamon]

Hello... been playing Madden off and on since the old Sega Genesis. This is I decided to try MUT, been enjoying it but I am attempting to figure out how the style boosts work. So what does it mean that my MD style is 80? The score of 80 MD impact my whole team, defense, or just the individual players. So right now I have Nick Fairley as my starting DT, solid starter. He is MD +5, MD is associated with Play Recognition and Man Coverage, so what goes up for my DT, do his ratings in Play recognition and Man Coverage go up +5 points? or are the points accumulated and divided equally among all the players?

And how do you check the boost. I created a 99 MD team, but when I go to the Depth Chart screen during the game, I do not see any boosts in either Man Coverage nor Play Recognition.

I believe it's MD (Man Defense) means your team is more adapt at playing man defense as opposed to playing zone. Depending on the players ratings for each style of defense determines the effectiveness.

I'd love to have an in depth explanation of this stuff as well. Insanely confusing.
