I have played a lot of sports sims over the last 20 years and FM stands out by a mile. The game that every other sports sim should aspire to.

I would love to see an NFL game play out on the current FM engine with a extensive range of tactical/play option similar to FM.

If you get the playbook creation right this game will epic in its own right!!
Yeah, I always thought it'd be sweet to see an NFL game with FM-like graphics while also being a OOTP-like in terms of trades, free agency, drafts. I thought it probably wouldn't become a reality until maybe 2025 or 2030, but now that BTS is part of OOTP developments, I'm optimistic about it getting to that level relatively soon. Or at least being highly entertaining and realistic like OOTP baseball.
