If you use heavy set on kickoff returns it puts all of your backup lineman, 2 fb, and 2 te in for the kick return.
Remove your backup lineman from your lineup and it uses your starters. Run nasty streak or vanguard or whatever on your starters and let the cheese begin.
I was having a lot of trouble returning kicks and this has helped. Ive popped 3 to the house recently.
(Ive also noticed if you dont mash sprint like when you run the ball on offense it helps on kickoffs as well)

I've wondered this. How to tell who is on normal kickoffs? I wanted to get as many avalanche and vanguard on kickoff returns.
Just use instant replay to see who is on field. It's basically this...

Ty. Do you know you is on when I'm kicking off? I wanna try and force as many fumbles as I can. Thanks again.

Ok ty. Looks like heavy is better than? Do they run slower or anything like that?
It's just different personnel based on heavier weight. At this point in the game there won't be a noticable speed difference between Normal & Heavy. I agree Heavy is better...SS rather than WR, LB rather than HB, etc. Only thing I am unsure of is if there is an associated fatigue penalty post kickoff. If there is, it would probably only impact your MLB2 and CB4. You could avoid this by not running 3-4 or Dime as your 1st down defense, to keep those players off the field for a snap. It's probably not an issue.

Ty. How fast do player regenerate stamina? Like a certain number of plays?
