@Sudtifo what you describe seems to be something entirely else. The freezing in this thread is about the game freezing completely, so that you can only close the game through killing it with task manager.
When you say frame drops, do you mean the FPS counter actually drops, or is the FPS counter stable but the game feels stuttering? Because in this case I had the same issue and I just now got it solved with the help of @Sick1Click here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/High-fps-but-not-smooth-Laggy-stutter/m-p/9252545/highlight/true#M77210
@xewarrior So, I just tried the RTSS thingy... I got two full games with zero frame drops. It was superb. But, as it turns out, I got my hopes up for nothing. The third game they started showing up again. My frames drop from my average 60 all the way to 4-5. And the more I play, the more frequent these frame drops are. I also get the Prediction error symbol in the right corner when they occur.
I really don't know what else to do. I have a 900MB Internet connection and play the game on a laptop with GTX 1070.

@Sudtifo this really sounds like a thermal issue to me, where the GPU and/or CPU runs too hot and then start to throttle as to not overheat. Especially laptops usually don't have that good cooling. If it's an older laptop you might want to open and check if dust is clogging up the cooling system. Regardless you should definitely check the temps of your GPU and CPU when the issue occurs.
