Should I sell my team and/or all of my Coins?

To add context, I run a 97 60/60 combine theme team, and if I sold my team I would probably have around 35 million coins, so talent is not the issue here. Reason why I am considering this is because this weekend it seems like the game got turned on its head this past weekend, and every one is now running rpo's all the time. Prior to last weekend, it felt like most people ran a somewhat realistic offense and would occasionally run the rpo cheese. Now it seems line 9/10 players I match up against is running rpo's all the time and does not have the flipping stones to throw the ball consistently past 5 yards. I know how to stop this, I just don't feel like having every game I play be a sweaty stressful experience. Maybe I just have had some bad luck, but if this I how the game is going to be going forward, then I may not want to participate in it. I also feel like the best defensive players in the game should have better play rec and be able to know when an rpo is coming and handle rpo's with ease but I guess it is what it is.  

Anyways feel free to share your opinions and insights as to what my next move should be.

maybe ur matchups are just unlucky cause i seem to be the opposite of u……i only hit rpo cheesers like 1, maybe 2 times out of 10……definitely hit quite a few players that run only like 3 plays that always seem to stymie my defense but it is what it is for me cause im just stat grinding so i really dont care how often i win……i have no problems just quitting and moving to the next matchup when the game frustrates me

The game is ruined with abilities either way. I took a big step back and now i only play 1-2 games a day before i log out, i don't even care about the dailies anymore since the rewards suck

I guess it is not.

I have noticed an uptick in the RPO game, but if you stop it theyll usually quit pretty quick. I find those players to be pretty one dimensional. If you have that good of a team, just make sure you have some flat zone or mid zone KOs at outside LB and slot CB and pass commit. That should completely eliminate the RPO game.

I find lately that passing downfield is extremely difficult with KOs all over the field. I've had to attack the short game with zigs and flats to open up anything up the field.

Also is there a good time to get back into mut prior to next years launch so that I am not rusty, or is just best to wait till the new game comes out?

I usually find them to be one dimensional too, its just when its every game its annoying.

Maybe, I have never played a mut champs weekend where 23 of the 25 games were all people who wanted throw the ball behind the line of scrimmage and rarely past it Thought it was just mut champs but then the same thing happened again yesterday in H2H. Not sure if it is becoming more a widespread trend, or if all of the quality mut players have moved over to mlb.

I have considered just taking a step back too, maybe that is best.

Couple quick things: You state: "Prior to last weekend, it felt like most people ran a somewhat realistic offense"...EA must be singling me out...the vast majority of players I have faced online have been far from "realistic" in their offense...all year.  A quick look on this site will show complaint threads about RPOs all year...along with Gun Bunch...and the band plays on.  So the game is no more broken now than it has been since September (it was broken before that...I just didn't notice it).  Now to your question of should you sell off...why would you?  If you are going to quit playing because it has gotten unrealistic...whatcha going to do with all those coins you get for spending the time to list your team for sale?  If I ever decide to quit I will not need a big coin stack...I'll just not log in.  End of the day I hope you land on a course of action that works for you.

I know that the game has not been perfect by far. Maybe it has just been amplified with a decent amount of people moving to MLB the show. Maybe it is just best to sell and be done till August.

Could be..but again...why sell?  If you are done then just be done.  Selling the team to stack coins in a game you are not going to play may not be the best use of your valuable time.  For me I use the following mindset for most things in life (to include this game):  When I'm done I'm done...I need not invest in the object of my doneness (not a word) nor would I announce it...as for this game...as broke as it is...I'm not done...I just play whenever.  But when the time comes to hang it up...I'll not invest time with the AH trying to get coins back for a game that I'm done with.  Not trying to be a pain...just don't get why you would waste your time stacking coin if you are going to not play anymore.

Valid point, and I appreciate you taking the time to share an insightful response. I will keep going, and just adapt and evolve.
