As a competitive person, this games definitely fills that need. At least when I play online and in online franchises.

When you 1st play this game, the run game and passing game will seem a little difficult, but once you practice at it and know how the WRs & TEs run their routes things will become so much easier. The Online Franchise is one of the best features as far competition goes. You get to test out your skills on a number of players that will for the most part play fair. The only down part to a online franchise is getting everyone to communicate with other players to schedule their games before the commissioner advances to the next week. Play online against other opponent is fun also. The only negative things about that is some players have figured out how to exploit some game flaws. 1 being able to blitz in untouched numerous times without being touched through the A gap and offensive play like the Wildcat that get a 5-20 if you don't know that specific defense to stop it. All in all the everything else is great when it comes to playing a football video game.
