Seems like its hard to hit much downfield this year, coverage is much better. But I have been winning most contested catches if its 1 on 1 deep, even with smaller guys.


Really like this.

Last year, I could line up Jelani Watkins or a 99 speed WR in the slot, run the All Go route in 5 wide set and the safety would end up out of position once every three plays and they would toast the 1 on 1 matchup.

Think I had like 2500 receiving yards on Heisman. So every time I trailed, just went straight to that

Glad that is fixed

Barion Brown is a cheat code. Anytime I see the corners lined up at the los i just send Brown deep and he burns them.

Discovered this last night... lol

Also, for those of you that want to do a TD Dynasty, I'm creating one. Sign up here and we'll random number generate for teams. I'd like to get 8-12 teams if we can, but we'll start with whatever we get:

Playing with South Carolina and Va tech straight up refused to play their corners on the line, the cpu spent all game in cover 3 corners way off.

I just roasted them running and harbor still beat them on crossing routes

Just had a glitch on dynasty where I couldn’t snap the ball and I was the home team.

I needed to leave the house anyway so just quit the game and will play it later but that’s was quite off.

One other thing I’ve noticed is I’ve been at La Tech and Texas Tech as part of that dynasty and I got 3 rain games in Lubbock in one season…. It doesn’t rain in Lubbock and my QBs and receivers were severely compromised. A lot of bad throws and receivers dropping balls that hit them wide open right in the hands

If you guys play RTG, and want to rage quit after some bullshite, shite the entire game down. Simply quitting to the menu screen will not work.

I sped thru the first year of a dynasty to get a feel of what the off season looks like (coaching carousel appeared to be busted still) and my God now that there are real coaches in the game the changes are hilarious.

-like 45 head coaches were fired
-Billy Napier bolted for the NFL
-Marcus Freeman went 7-5 and was fired and replaced by James Franklin, and then Penn St hired Freeman.....
-LSU went 5-7 and Kelly was fired (this would probably happen in real life if LSU has that season) and was replaced by Kiffin
-Jim Mora finished in the Top 25 at freaking UConn and left to be the DC at LSU
-other HC that had decent seasons left to be coordinators at other schools. I guess Chip Kelly did it in real life but it's not like UCLA was any good.

I just finished my first season and didn’t play dynasty enough last year. Is the transfer portal only available during the off season?

In my usc dynasty I’ve beat the hell out of Va tech, FSU and Vandy. I’m ranked top 5 and all of a sudden my brand exposure tanked to a C - getting me locked out and somehow my play style on guys dropped a ton.

It makes zero fricking sense I throw for like 250 a game and rush for 150-200

It's a glitch where some of them get reversed. Should be fixed in the first big patch.

So what happens when you get a pack with a player cars that you already own? I can't see where I can at least auction the 2nd one or that I even have the duplicate

Just finished my first dynasty season and won natty. Good lord I am abysmal on defense. I can defend the run no problem. Passing? At some point I just started bringing the house ever play because the cpu would just hit 7-10 yard dink and dunks all game. Go like 38-42 for the game. No matter what adjustments I did, always someone wide open with a defender just running away from them

I sim the defense. I choose “Play All Offense” in the sim screen.


Couple of things I dislike about Road to Glory:

- Coaches should have accelerated game clocks on late in the 4th if you’re winning.
- If you’re up big in the 4th, you should be subbed out if you’re a starter. Subbed in if you’re not.
- Fake snaps don’t work. There’s a 3-5 second delay to snap the ball after a fake snap call. Can’t catch the line off guard.

Was running through the schedule with LSU on Heisman, so I started another dynasty with Arkansas.

Taylen Green is super fun to use. Had the ball late tied with Ole Miss, just trying to get in range for a game winning FG, and broke a 52 yard TD run instead.

Manage to make it through the 1st 4 games 4-0. Only problem is everyone else left on their schedule starting with ND is like 88 overall or better and they are 84 overall

Cover 4 or cover 4 drop and shade your defenders to cover under. User a linebacker.

Its kind of funny that this mirrors what a lot of teams are doing defensively now. The only issue is that its so easy to get gashed by the run, especially if you play in 3-2-6 drop.

Do y'all typically match personnel? Unless its a late game comeback situation I usually play with one fewer DB than the offense has WRs. You're going to give stuff up in the pass game anyway, but this helps to absolutely stifle the run game and it puts more bodies over the middle of the field for potential interceptions

Do it all, doesn't matter. There will always be a receiver that is wide open. If they go over the middle when I am there, i'll light the receiver up but they catch everything. Tried adjusting the drop distances, playing pass inside vs outside. Nothing better than playing a zone and keying pass inside, to only get beat by a slant inside . The match coverages are 100% broken so I avoid them like the plague.

I'd say something is broken, at least with my dynasty specifically, because for the hell of it I dropped the CPU QB accuracy and receiver catching slders to 0 and it made no difference. Played for a half before backing out just to test it. 88% completion witht he only incompletions being interceptions.

For the most part I do, though I usually am running a 3-3-5 or some variation of the 4-2-5. Most of the time the CPU is running 3 WR's. If they go 4, it will depend on the situation if I go to dime or not.
