i have always used denver as my team and still will, but i swithched to TB's playbook after 4 years of denvers. well ill probably still use denver's too but this TAMPA BAY PLAYBOOK IS DOPE.
they are both good playbooks, but im just sick of having 5 headers of junk in every formation and 2 or 3 good plays.
the fact that there are a lot of plays just missing from the stock playbooks like fake pitch-playction and crackback runs just irritates me to no end, plus i want to be able to change it up from week to week to mirror real life trends, and ultimately i want to throw my own ideas into the mix.
EA just blantently avoided putting certain route combos into the existing playbooks out of fear that "unstopabble" offenses would result.
for example... in the denver playbook there is a play in the -SINGLEBACK TWIN TE WR- set called "POSTS" but if you added a hb middle route like an ANGLE to that play and made the play from several formations like singleback tight you'd have a truly great play.
this play or ones similar to it are in each playbook but usually in only 1 formation and usually missing 1 key element of the play.
omiting plays like this is supposedly to keep the game more balanced, and may be funner for a new player but i want to play a game of football skill, knowledge, preparation and innovation.
dont even get me started typing out screen plays and playaction plays with fake pitches and maybe a pitch from a shotgun formation or... even... :cool: shhh... gasp... gulp... and maybe even a 4 wide quick hitter to champ bailey :eek:
