1)You can call the plays if you want, or let your coaches decide for you. If the coaches decide for you they will select the plays based on the general strategy you have set (e.g. are you are running team etc).

I am still not sure yet about the user having to choose within the play clock; For example even if you are on a 40 sec play clock, you'll realistically have to decide in less than 10 seconds, as you need enough time for the personnel to enter the field, form the huddle, talk in the huddle, get into formation and set themselves.

As far as I know those other games don't have that problem: as soon as you decide the players are magically in the formation and ready for the snap.

2)I'm still not 100% sure how we will model OTA/pre-season, but they are good ideas. Thanks.
