Okay you've got my interest... what exactly do you think Confidence impacts in the SIM that morale doesn't?

Also, don't underestimate the power of confidence. In-game morale simulates the idea of momentum. If your players have low confidence, momentum can very quickly swing away from you as they get demoralized from missing tackles or giving up points or turning the ball over, etc. If your confidence is very low, your player feels like he might as well give up and will not play as well.

In the midst of a game your morale rises and falls based on your performance, your teammates' performance, and the performance of the other team.
In-game morale has an effect on how well you play, just like energy. Higher confidence means your player doesn't get phased by things like missing a tackle or throwing an int as much.
So in theory with the test posted above testing different amounts of Confidence you had different play results. If the QB had maxed out morale at the start of the game, how would that affect that is my question?
From your statement, it wouldn't change anything.
