For whatever reason most football sims put their focus on the GM side instead of the actual game on the field. They're more about drafting and trading. The actual game of football mostly exists just to generate stats. I've wondered if this is an effect of fantasy sports leagues, which are all about drafting, trading, and stats.

FBPro and XOR had intense focus on the actual game of football. In the past 20 years I've seen countless comments from people wanting a new game like FBPro and XOR, but game developers have not paid any attention.
