    The commissioner will start the franchise, we'll all be given a password to join it. Only thing you need to do now is practice ;)

    -Saints suspensions
    -skins+cowboys cap penalties
    -rams having 4,000 draft picks
    -skins having none
    -Tom Brady's changing hairstyles
    -other player suspensions - tamba Hali for example
    -Rex Ryan's foot fetish

    All important elements of the NFL

    Any chance of getting the rest of the divisions out? I thought there was one division being released every hour?

    I had no idea who that was haha. Good game. I couldn't get my offence going at all, and I just couldn't cover all your receivers. Glad the pats won't be in my division!

    Yeah, was a really good game (bar the occasional connection slow down!). Rice showed glimpses of hurting me at times. I think it was the fair catch contact penalty that hurt you, giving me short field.

    But trust me, a statline of 18-20/360yds/4Tds/0Ints is unheard of for me. I'm not going to get that lucky again. Better not get used to it either with probably the Browns or 'Phins in the Franchise :(

    Is it possible to make a substitution in game? Like your 3rd and a yard and ya want bush to take it up the middle rather than forte. Without pausing and changing the depth charge?

    On your depth chart you select the RB as the 3DRB so he'll run your third downs

    Select play by formation, then when you can see all the formations use Rb I think and you can sub players into the formation. Also you can select a player as your third down back in the depth chart from the connected careers menu.

    Or the easiest way, select your play from formation us right stick and go to backup Hb or Hb sub

    Doesn't work anymore. He tends to run into the arse of the centre and get tripped up for minus 1 yard

    I've used it a couple of times, I know what your saying but you need to find the gap otherwise you don't get anything! Can be frustrating!

    Did you not find that cause the FB is only a few yards behind the centre hes too close to even find those holes? I've found short yardage situations to be massively frustrating cause power runs up the middle result in getting tripped up and quick passes don't work cause the wr's take too long to be "looking"

    I've been using the titans the the FB Johnson is poor(and slow) so the o line has a chance to engage there blockers before the FB gets to the line. However on teams with better FBs they get to the line as the o line engage their blocks and it's a no gain.
