The Playstation debacle this past weekend killed me. Now every other one of these games is super sweaty, and there's always an uber-cheese-fest every fourth or fifth game; can't get any traction.
I do not mean this to be an asshole, but you might just have to "git gud" and try some new stuff. I recently just started calling an entirely different defense and I almost immediately started winning more games. Knocked out my first 4 wins streak last night

Basically, "Start cheatin', bro."

I mean you can definitely stoop to that level if you just wanna get it done. I just started trying 3-3-5 Penny and it just happens to work really well for the (almost) pure zone coverage scheme I run. I can send 4 or 5 and not be "too" susceptible to getting bombed. Pressure usually forces picks. Having flexible linebackers that can rush or drop back helps.
It's fricken' stupid. I'm going against guys with Starts-on Omaha throwing picks dead to my guys, but after that, my quarterback will only throw off the mark, and every flipping catch gets knocked out even when I trouble myself to throw away from abilities.
Reason: Clarification

No
No one else will respond to me and yall seem to be active so is the Marcus Allen that gets angry runs worth the couns

Not far off from what I'm doing. Sometimes the rush gets home. Then the RPO comes out, along with a bunch of other broken plays, and I get to play Roshambo Cheese Royale.
I'm struggling more on offense vs. loop cheese, crowding the line, and unnatural gravity-and-inertia-don't-exist user picks that are just impossible in human bodies. It's like I'm getting all the guys that have the book on how to make players run at 120% of their speed and how to shed blocks at obscenely unreasonable rates of occurrence.
It's hard to enjoy the non-stop non-football experience that this game is in this mode.

Buy him and try him out? I mean...

I don't know. That's why I didn't respond in the thread for that purpose.

I don’t want to spend 800k on him to lose 80k if I don’t like him. I’m not rich and I don’t spend all of my money on the game so I value all of my coins

Then wait for a response then. Someone made a thread saying he broke the game so yeah

Yeah, I mean some games feel more "fair" than others, that has to be DDA. Sometimes you just get flat out hoe'd by the powers that be. Which is INSANE on a game most of us spend hundreds on. But if you keep trying you'll get there. and if you aren't using an auto-Omaha, I recommend it for this game mode. Fight fire with fire. Also don't forget you can slide protect and make sure you keep in an extra blocker if you need to. Good luck homie! It aint easy w/o cheese

I like to hear more than one person out
FINALLY!
I'd like to say that in the end I was on my game. In actuality, the best of the four quit out early after a couple bad plays, and I was able to get up early in the Super Bowl, which chased the fellow off.
It's nice to be able to add a 500k item. I have to wonder if I could have made ten times as many coins just working the auction house. But I can say I did it.
Thanks to those who gave me tips, including the guy who suggested equipping Mind Reader. I disagreed fundamentally with the approach, but you tried to help, so I'll give you that.
