You'll still get zones, combos, man, and blitzes that are geared toward the down and distance. My guess is if you run the same play over and over the defense may not recognize you're running the same play but, they aren't running the same play therefore the result will not be the same.

ADAPTIVE DEFENSIVE AI
My question. I asked if this year, the Defense would recognize if you ran the same play over and over and make adjustments. Sean mentioned that they way they do it in previous years on the current gen side was that the defense would get a ratings boost if they noticed that you were running the same play over and over. This year, unfortunately, there is no adaptive AI, so, the defense does not make adjustments if you run the same play you have success with over and over.
The lead designer confirmed it. I would be able to run the EXACT same play over and over,with success.
As far as the cpu calling plays based on down and distance.....this method is flawed as well,hell EA even admits it.

Bailey said the cpu would get a boost in rankings in PAST versions,what is quoted above is in regards to 09.
