Kickoff Length 66 66The key here is QB Accuracy and Tackling. Higher Tackling prevents longer runs, which keeps the running game in check. And QB Accuracy alters both throwing accuracy and throwing power. With higher QB Accuracy, the defenders have less time to react to the ball.
Started another season (Was going to continue the one I had, but I accidentaly deleted it because I'm a dummy), and the sliders seemed to provide good performance.

Game Log Ends
------------------------------------------------------------
I accept the CPU being bad with the Browns because they are pretty bad IRL, not going to lie.
I decided to do MaddenAmp's training camp before starting this season. I trained my DBs in catching and they came up clutch with 3 picks. The Browns tried to stage a 2nd half comeback, but fell short. Some of the things I'm noticing is that the punt avg for the CPU is a tad too short compared to my punt avg. Maybe raising CPU Punt Length can help.
My defensive play calling is usually on the man blitz or zone blitz. If I see the QB comfy in the pocket, I'll send a few blitzes his way. They eventually pick up the blitz, but by that time I start calling less blitz and dropping more guys in coverage. And the AI apparently can't keep up with that ... well ... at least the Browns AI Coach can't keep up.
For my Offensive play calling, I have my base formations (Singleback and Shotgun) and my situation specific formations (I, Weak I, Strong I, and the Empty sets). I usually call plays from the Singleback and Shotgun, leaning a bit more to running if I use Singleback and a bit more to passing if I use the Shotgun. If I need to burn time or I definitely need to run, I call for the I formations. I will occassionaly pass from those and will call PA passes, but I usually run. If I need some serious yardage, I call the Singleback - 4 WR Empty (A tight end for blocking is good) and the 5WR Empty sets from both Singleback and Shotugn. I WILL go for it on 4th down if it is 4th and inches, even if I'm leading, I need to keep that clock moving.
You'll be able to see my play calling when I do the journal. Specifically on Week 1, because I sim the preseason.
