It's a good game. You are hearing a lot of people griping because stuff that used to work doesn't now. So there's an adjustment period happening. The big mistake would be to judge the game before people have time to adjust. I actually think 4.3 was okay after you finally realized that covering that 86 speed TE with your 55 speed SAM LB was going to result in your extra point defense team getting lots of work. Be patient and give the bossman feedback and it will get even better..

The adjustmemts have been made. Owners have figured out what works and what doesnt in 4.5. Ive won multiple championships under 4.5 but still yes Im complaining because the only offense that works is incredibly boring and the deep passing game is all but gone.
There has to be a threat of the deep ball because its football. The complaints arent that the game changed and I cant figure it out. The complaints are that on offense, there is exactly 1 way to win.....period.
90/90 WRs with +90 speed paired with a 85/88 QB cant get 1000 yards receiving in a season because they have nerfed the QB and long passing game to death so everybody has a chance to win in the new low scoring MFN.
I agree the game is incredible and I am not leaving anytime soon but as a league admin and just a owner that reads the forums, PEOPLE ARE LEAVING because the changes on offense are frustrating.
The changes were made in the name of realism but the results are far from real.
20 receivers catch over 1000 yards in 2018.
Go check whatever league you are in and find me recievers with 1000 yards or on pace for 1000 yards. About half the teams in the league should have one but they are gar and few between.
I have nothing against defense or running the ball, like I said, I can adjust to whatever they throw at me but we went from version 4.3 where you could air it out and put up hugh passing numbers to 4.5 where you have to play ball control, dink and dunk football.
I just won the League Championship in the NFL league. The long pass was so useless that I actually stopped using it altogether. Yes my play ratio was 0 long pass. Enough said.
