You can change the camera!
So, for me, Road to Glory was just unplayable with the default camera with a QB.
But, you actually CAN change the camera angle. The game does a terrible job explaining that you can do this. (Like many things in the game, it just isn't explained at all let alone well.)
But you can do so. Once you get into a game, you can push up or down on the D-Pad to move the camera up or down. With a QB for example, you can zoom way out so you can actually see the quarters of the field on the right and the left that you cannot with the default camera angle.
This changes this mode from "unplayable" to "actually fun" with a QB. I highly recommend doing this.
Now if only when you used your coach trust to change the play you had at least one PASS play as an option of the three instead of, "Oh, you didn't like that one handoff play we offered you? Here are two others!"
