What are most of you useing? Aggressive or Medium?

After 2 games im 45/55 ( 81% ) using Aggressive, or are you switching it up based on the level / builds of the 2ndary?

Aggressive against lower competition and Medium against tougher comp?

Aggressive.
The better the secondary the more you need to throw it away I think. If you have a great mismatch (TE with sick catching and jumping) then you could go for Medium I think because he is more able to catch the ball. You don't want to try to force something to happen and end up throwing an interception though.

I was "aggressive" last season in triple B and threw 6 picks I think.

Now we are in AA and I use the Medium setting. No picks yet thankfully.

I've been using Medium to pretty good success, since last season.

I could just be reading this wrong, but it sounds like you are implying aggressive throws the ball away more than medium does.

Upon reading this a second time I conclude I was drunk. Or too tired.

Cool, I was just making sure it was a mistake, I figured it was.

Aggressive throws it away LESS.

Is there any type of consensus on which setting is better?

Are your WR's really good? Is their secondary really good? Is your QB that good? Can your O-Line hold their blocks? lol. There is a lot that factors into it.

If your QB is still developing into the type of build you want for your offense then medium works great so he won't lose games for you and your RB's can win it. If you have a good QB and not that great of WR's and you're facing an above average secondary then medium would also work so you don't force in the balls all the time and get a couple picked. If you have a great QB build and really good WR's and you trust your QB/WR's to be better than the defensive secondary, go for aggressive. Or, try a couple games on each setting against similar competition in scrimmages and see how your QB performs, it may surprise you b/c all QB's tend to play different.
