On topic/Off topic: Hit stick is super unrealistic too. If you play someone who is good with a hit stick don't bother returning kicks or going anywhere near the middle of the field. The league leader in fumbles lost most years is a full time QB with around 7 (Daniel Jones had 11 in 2019) You can't just want the game to be more like IRL when it is convenient to you.
