All Pro, but I'm willing to bump up to All Madden if necessary. I just want to have a reasonable chance of winning every game. And when I lose, I don't wanna get torn up by a ****ing juggernaut. At least not most of the time.
Basically, I'm looking for...
1.
...the running game to be a little more challenging. Jamaal Charles is almost unstoppable on I-formation stretch plays. Which is nice and all, but I really want to earn my 200 yard games. I'd love for the defense to force me to try something else from time to time. I tried a slider set that had me running into my fullback's butt a lot, though, which sucked, so I'd like to avoid that.
2.
...the deep passing game to be a little less impossible. Yeah, I have Alex Smith, which is probably a big reason I'm so bad at throwing the ball downfield. But I really shouldn't be throwing nearly as many interceptions as I have been. If Dwayne Bowe is going on a seam route against single coverage, I should be able to chuck it up and have a reasonable expectation that Bowe can get it before the CB magically turns around at the exact right time and picks the ball off.
3.
...pass rushing to not be so futile. I've managed a decent number of sacks with Justin Houston, but they've almost all been coverage sacks. I don't want to be able to blow by the O-line for 8 sacks a game or anything, but I'd at least like to put some pressure on the QB every now and then.
4.
...user defense to be stronger overall. I'm able to make enough stops to win games, but in the meantime I'm routinely getting torn up on the ground and picked apart on ****ing 3rd and 17. Maybe some of this is playcalling (I'm not very defense-minded so I generally just gameflow take care of defense and then rush the passer with Houston), but no ****ing way should Peyton Hillis be running for 10 yards a carry. And no way should EJ Manuel have an 88% goddamn completion rate. It's okay for teams to go on long drives against me or get the occasional big play, but right now it's absurd.
4. .
..scores to be realistic but not boring. My first two games were exhilarating and required me to put together last-second touchdown drives to win. Then I got destroyed by the Eagles and bounced back to beat the Giants in another toughie. Since then, though, the wins have been too easy to come by. They haven't even all been blowouts so much as shootouts I knew I'd end up winning. I'd like to see a decent balance of tough close games, shootouts, and blowouts. If it has to be a shootout, I want the pressure to be on. Essentially, I want the result to genuinely be in doubt... even if I still end up winning more than losing.
BASICALLY, I'm not interested in wasting time losing at a fake sport against a robot, but I'd like for the wins to be earned and the losses to be rewarding in the effort.
