The only real way to fix it would be to buff defenses as teams become predictable.

If a team only runs/passes 7 plays in a row, the defense gets a buff to run/pass awareness (5%).
If a team only runs/passes the next 5 plays, the defense gets an additional buff to run/pass awareness (additional 5%) and relevant technique skills are buffed (5% of base).
If a team only runs/passes the next 3 plays, additional awareness/technique buffs (additional 5% each).
If a team only runs/passes the next 3 plays, additional awareness/technique buffs (additional 5% each).
If a team only runs/passes the next 3 plays, additional awareness/technique buffs (additional 5% each).
If a team only runs/passes the next 3 plays, additional technique buffs (additional 5% each).

Buffs are decreased when teams run a more varied offense (1% buff decrease per play of opposite type).

Spikes would not count as runs or passes.

This would give defenses a bit of a boost against teams that exclusively run/pass. The threshold of 7 plays could be raised but that number seemed to make sense. The only downside would be end of half or end of game scenarios where balanced teams tend to shift to pass mode. They may trigger the awareness buff and possibly the first technique buff.

I like it +1

Love it.

Best suggestion ever!

makes sense. IRL coaches would make an adjustment against a one-dimensional team.

Meh its not hard for a pass offense to throw a run in there and all this leads to for run based teams is throwing a WR screen in the mix.

Ya but it doesn't really make you any less powerful adding in the random spread dive either. Also doesn't solve any real problems with either part of the game. Only masks them with band aids.

And the real problem is that pass and run attributes were split into two categories, and this is the only band aid that will cover that.

Naw, the real problem is sim balancing issues and play restrictions. Saying this is the only fix is laughable.

One less 60% chance at a 15 yard gain.

You know what I want fixed?

That one random drive per game where Cleveland goes:

1st Down: Incomplete overthrow, WR wide-ass open streaking down the sideline.
2nd Down: 12 Yard completion to TE over the middle, dropped.
3rd Down: 11 Yard completion to WR3 over the middle, dropped.
4th Down: Punt.

Yeah. That needs to stop happening

i see wut you did thar

Oh so you mean that .2% permutation that happens 5+% of the time?

Don't talk statistics and t-tests to the GLB crowd. Their head might explode.
