Well it almost is like your players don't matter. If guys run the meta plays that abuse deep blues they have 15-20 yards between their reads - it really doesn't matter who they have standing next to the sideline. That is f'ing crazy and if football were like that there is no way you could play defense. So the game isn't really a chess match or about reads or anything like that. It is abuse the meta plays better than your opponent. I took 3 years off - and last madden I played I was #1... I decided after looking at the video of my first few weeks games I was going to just do what I normally do and assume EA will fix the major issues. Almost like clockwork in March-ish every year EA takes the gaping bugs out of the game so people can't bag on the game - obvious they leave them in there for MS. If I am wrong I am going to have to learn 4-5 meta plays and just get good at guessing the plays guys are running.
And on another note the "guess pass" tuning is something I have never seen. I have never seen guys come out and blitz 6 and guess pass and that is a defense. I didn't play the last two maddens so maybe I missed the memo. Guys with no user ability bagging 5 routes because they guess pass.
I know right i find it harder and harder to win scheme wise i like a good chess match
