<p>Not sure if this has been answered, but every time I try to do the AKA challenges it boots me back to the main screen. Says "servers cannot process your request at this time". Only happens with AKA challenges. Is this a roster issue or something els…</p>

<p>Never played this early in the season, but the gameplay is so much better right now in H2H. Coming out of 23 with all the stacked abilities, the game feels so much cleaner now. No garbage knock outs or AKA spamming, just solid strategic gameplay. Th…</p>

Anyone else lagging?

<p>Never had problems with lag up until about two weeks ago. Feels like every H2H  game is lagging.</p>

<p>Quick tip, put Gronk as backup FB or backup TE with vanguard on and just gaze downfield as you're returning kicks. Watched him bury three guys on a kick return. Absolute gold.</p>

<p>Not sure why, but Edelman never worked out for me, dropped passes when anyone was close. Also, new Bruce Irvin was non-existent on the field.</p>

Davis Sr. Oop at slot linebacker has done so well for his lvl with zero abilities on him.

<p>Such an underrated card. Play him in the box with PA and Crusher for 2 ap, total beast.</p>

I use him at Sub LB and he’s amazing. I use acrobat and enforcer for a total of 1, you can add pick artist for another 1 if you want to. he makes plays everywhere, and his change of direction is 99, he’s unbelievable, def worth the coins

<p>I actually have him up top at FS with PA and Enforcer. Size does not matter on this guy, he's a killer. Feel like he makes clutch plays every game. I'm sure he's a great user, but I like high BSH at Sub.</p>

<p>The problem isn't the ability. It's that every ability is free or discounted, making gameplay ridiculous. If you want to have 4 zone knockouts on the field fine, but you shouldn't be able to have 20 other abilities on top of that. There should be st…</p>

Just take King Henry and Quadfather out of the game and I’d have a blast lmao

<p>It's just stupid.  I played a guy the other day. kicked off and didn't get the ball back until 1:20 left in the 2nd qtr. after a goal line stop.  Dude had like nine first downs running stretch and dives.  You have to be a miserable SOB to enjoy that.</p>

Hahahaha, could not agree more, #6 is controversial but I have the William Perry at fullback with free return man so scum kicks are honestly so fun for me, everything else is spot on though, especially the top 3

<p>Lol, good to hear I'm not alone. I'm telling you, some of these H2H games are exhausting.</p>

<p>1) Stop with the insane ability discounts.  Getting tired of every player having KO's, SIE, route techs, Secure pros, post ups, unearned X factors, etc... Each side of the ball should have a decent number of regs. </p> <p>2) Speaking of abilities, Quadfat…</p>

<p>Trying to figure out who to put at SS. Definitely have had more success at FS and SS with taller players. Peppers is insane, Chinn's 93 was great, and played Calvin as an OOP there with good success, but just looking to upgrade the position. Like Bo…</p>

Great post thank you. I have been practicing reading defenses pre snap the past 2 years and have gotten alot better at it but it's still very tricky for instance cover 2 invert with 1 high safety or some cover 3 defenses that are already disguised with 2 high safeties but I can usually get it down to a few options that I think my opponents defense is running also alot of ZCV defenses will motion with a wr when you motion your wr so you cant really use motion to tell anymore I guess.

<p>True, but you’ll start to notice these bluff defenses as the game goes on. Most online players stick to a comfort level. Once you realize their patterns you’ll know exactly what they’re trying. Also, if you feel like they’re running a lot of two hig…</p>

This is a really good post. Maybe one addition: running empty sets or spread sets makes it easier to identify coverages than Gun Tight or Gun Bunch, imo. So for the sake of practice, it might be good to run with those. Just make sure you put a lot of abilities on your Oline because they need to hold up.

<p>Good call on this. I started by running spread formations and mixed in trips etc… once I got good enough I start recognizing coverages in most sets.</p>
