There are still some things I don't really have a handle on for players tactics. I am sure others are unsure also.

Quarterbacks

Pass Slider: Bullet, Medium, Lofty, or custom? I current have my QB set on medium. Seems to me Bullet caused to many dropped passes and Loft was due for a INT every 5 passes.

Passing Priority: Open, Balanced, Distance, or custom? I set it based on what type of offense is set for the up coming game. If I plan on a basic passing game I set to open. If I plan on throwing a lot of screens I set to Distance as it seems if you use open they throw to the RB way to early?

Receivers

Route Running Style: I never had had success with using creative, regardless of how high agility the player has. Anyone use creative successfully?

Running Style: Super Elusive is broke imo. Like creative running it doesn't matter how high agility the runner has. If you use to high of a setting he misses holes all day by juking back and forth. Also runs our of bounds for no reason all the time.

Coverage Style: I'm guessing its safe to say that aggressive is broke. The CB gambles far to often and seems to get burned far to often. Maybe this is intended though? Seems to me the only available option is Semi Aggressive. Although JKTooley mentioned before that it was buggy?

That's all I can really think of right now. Was curious if anyone would care to share some info? If not I understand why.

qb favor towards bullet, priority is still a work in progress for me personally, recievers i prefer creative, super elusive is great for returning thats about it, coverage style depends on if you have ball hawk or not imo

Passing Slider... Depends on your team, their abilities and your opponent. You don't want a strong QB zipping passes to WRs with crappy hands, you'll see a ton of drops. On the flip side, you don't want a weak QB tossing wobbly ducks of a pass into coverage. It depends on your play calls, builds and who you're up against.

Priority.... Still trying to nail this one down. I think it depends on what kind of offense you run. If you want to hit open guys quickly like a West Coast style offense set it to heavily favor open man. If you want your guys to try and get deep often you'll probably want it set to favor route distance.

Route Running Style.... creative used to work well for my WR, seems to be less effective now. Seems to be that you should have substantially better agility than who is covering you and the right SAs at high values for it to be a good option.

Running Style.... Super Elusive was meant for returners only imo. Either that or it's broken. Total waste of yards if you have a elusive back running out of the backfield with it on.

Coverage Style... Something tells me Bort would say aggressive is "working as intended". Semi Aggressive does the same thing as aggressive except you're whiffing on PDs instead of ints. Medium basically reverts to loose coverage if you don't have any help over the top and goes to aggressive if you do, with the same poor results.

For some of these tactics like coverage style it'd be nice to have a slider like for running style. Although, it does strike me as weird that there is a dramatic difference between 99% and 100% elusive vs. super elusive.
