Disappointing.
That has been a problem for awhile. It really kills long term dynasties for me. Eight years down the road, a team appears to have recruited completely outside of their actual strategies (for example, last year, WVU became a school for the pocket passers and bruising running backs). This led to 62 speed QBs running the options, 84 speed RBs getting toss sweeps after toss sweeps. When playing against these teams it really sucks because their offense just stalls, but against the CPU they still put up numbers so they stay near the top.
