Joke of a game.
Dynamic mode? What that actually means is rigged games. I’m begging one of the developers to respond and deny it. Don’t waste your time with this bs
SUCKS
IF YOU WANT TO BE A LOSER GET THIS GAME
Unfair
I love this game play it abt 2 hours every day. I was in the national championship, and up by 15 in the 4th quarter the other team got a touchdown and a two point conversion then they got an onside kick then a 2 point conversion leaving me with 5 seconds 75 yards away from getting a touchdown and my kicker was injured so this game is horrible😭
Won’t load
Thing won’t even download it suck btw
cj
Game run so slow its unacceptable
If you see this read it
Why is the age rating 13plus it’s just football
This game sucks
This might just be because I’m a bad player but this game sucks every single play is either an interception or fumble and I’ve been playing this game for like 56 seasons and my players still suck and I’ll be trying to get good office admission players but I wonder what happens. I don’t have enough money and I never get enough coach credits so I can get more freshman ad space so yeah big your game new star whatever you’re corporation is called.
Lag
Lags sooo bad not worth the space
They don't have your favorite team
BYU is goan
Game crashed!!!!
I love this game!!!! But after over 50 seasons the game crashed with an array error and will no longer open. I can’t delete the app without losing all of my progress!!!!

Dude like why? Why every game I play everyone just gets injured? like dude every game I freaking play my star players get injured
Retro
The game is fun but every time I get a notification it goes slow mo
Ai took over
I was about to win and all the sudden the ai takes over and I lose fix you game
Extreme mode is so predictable
If all extreme mode means is your RB is guaranteed one fumble a game even with max strength and stamina, then why even make it a mode in the game. The game is way too easy on hard, the only competitive way to play is extreme. But it’s stupid that my Derrick Henry level RB is guaranteed one fumble a game just for getting carries. It makes zero sense.
Not balanced
The difference between hard and extreme difficulty is too much. Makes the game not enjoyable
Trash
Recievers can’t catch anything that comes their way. I never had this issue with the other game
