New Feature in Franchise allows you to practice certain plays to improve your ability against certain defensive plays. It mentioned something about your success against that particular play improving if it's used in the game. Anyone else test this out?

yea, i tried it last night....basically you run each play that your coordinator has identified as a key to attacking your upcoming opponents defense(there are three plays each week). you run it a minimum amount of times (not sure how many but around 5) and they give you a "rating" for how good you did the play. the best i could get was 10 so i think it's between 1 and 10. At that point, you can continue and try to raise your rating or quit and take what you have. after each play you can keep going or quit.

as far as actually helping in the game, i didn't notice any difference for the plays i had good scores on, but that was only one game. i think i am going to keep doing it every week for now just to see if it makes a difference

You run each of the 3 plays and they give you points based on how many yards you gain on each of your tries and the amount of yards gained per play is your score. It goes much higher than 10 because I got a 30 or so on one.

Yeah, they go much higher than 10. On a TD you get a...45 I think. Don't quote me on that though. Get a TD each time and you'll have the highest possible rating. How well it helps in game I don't know yet.
