                        all of you guys that like the MVP 05,you need to try 06 ncaa baseball(ea sports) basically,the same game your just playing with college teams instead of MLB teams....Mike Patrick is a great broadcaster and its fun playing all of the different universities.....the presentation isn't as good as MVP but the gameplay is excellent!

                              I'm not sure about A. I know there is definitly a way to change this, but I'm just not sure where it is. Pretty sure it is under one of the settings.

                              As for the INT's, you need to change the Game AI, the computers awareness and INT is way too high, which is why the games have so many interceptions. Once you adjust this, you will be good to go.

                                couple of things to run the ball use the 2 wr set with TE's. Motion one of the WR and hike the ball when he's by the G's or C. or on the side your running to by the T. This will allow him to pick up any D line or LB that has a chance to stop the RB at the corner. This leave only 1 person a player controled or CPU person to have a chance to stop you about 5 yards down the field. perfect way to run the Stretch play.

                                Also to get good D line pressure switch to 3 downline men bring them in tight vs the run and audible them to crash the middle. Both Ends will crash the A gap and get middle pressure on the QB, you will have no pass rush outside though unless you blitz. This is good online vs noobs or slow QBs. if RBs are in they will pick up the blitz most of the time. Motioning a guy over to block can help too.

                                Don't be afraid to throw the ball away instead of throwing into coverage. I like the packers because they have alot of deep passing routes with 2 guys coming underneath on short routes usually against linebackers.

                                Also as the bears I move hester to RB and do alot of deep routes with flares to hester out of the backfield. Hester vs LB is a win any day. also hester in the slot on a inside post is very strong if no MLB to lock that down.

                                to stop the 3 down linemen rush you can leave RBs in to protect or you can line up in qb stop clock play then audible out. This victory formation will line the linemen up closer than normal and your guards will pick the ends up no NP.

                                Online I play alot of 3-3-3. Alot of Nickle. Stopping the run is key. Its hard to stop the run with these sets, but its a must. Watch the edges when playing the 3 downlinemen A gap crash.

                                Changing the AI is a joke. Leave it on its default for multiplayer or you will be facing 4 and 5 wr sets all day long. Lower the interception or AI's ability to play and I'll pick anyone apart. Lowering the difficulty or AI adjustment is for NOOBs.

                                  Ok, so I wasn't just imagining that it seems so easy to get picked off.....

                                  Timetopay, I found that by going to the Tightend a lot more, interceptions were way down (Mostly play action tosses right up the middle). Some slant plays worked out alright as well, if I got them off quick enough.

                                  Makes your offence pretty one-dimensional, but it's worked for me, picking up 8 to 14 yards per play consistently. Hate ignoring the outside recievers, but I honestly was just getting sick of multiple picks, especilly on anything deep or any type of hook pattern.

                                  Anyway, hope that helps a tad.....

                                    Never do playaction pass online. this committs you against a defensive blitz. Its a terrible thing to do. You will just get sacked for 10 yards. The first thing you should do is scramble with your QB back or to a direction to gain more distance from incoming blitzes. Then you settle on a WR and plant and throw.

                                    I like crossing routes its easy to get seperation. The jump ball is just that a jump ball for a jugular play. Half the time its picked 1/4th time its batted away the other 1/4th you complete it. I'm not very good with Jump balls unless its a stud WR in single coverage. I do 4WR sets, sometimes I'll audible them into a TE formation but I like spd on the field. Also running the ball is a myth you have to do it just enough to make it a pain for the opponent. With GB i play the whole game from BIG formation. Or can I should say.

                                    I got pretty good with GB won 14 in a row ranked. Now im on a alt name learning Phily and other teams strengths. Honestly QB play is huge, so a team without a good QB is screwy for me. I also need a semi moble QB. Anyways GL

                                    I'm not the best but I'm prob middle third of the ppl on the net. GL
