Playbook Styles

Use this info with caution. I’ve noticed some team playbooks are assigned to a certain style in Dynasty Mode but don’t really reflect that scheme. For example on offense, Cal’s playbook is supposedly Veer & Shoot but I mostly see Air Raid stuff, hardly any VnS flare. Assigned defensive playbooks may be different in Practice Mode compared to Dynasty Mode. Hopefully EA will patch all of this.
