I cannot coax the CPU to punt for the task "Return a punt for 15+ yards". CPU will go for it on 4th down everytime.

I did get it to punt to me and it did register the return yards but not the points for the TD I scored on the return. When I got the safety earlier it didn't count the return yards as being from a punt, so I guess it has to be a true punt formation.

UPDATE:
It's now possible to score points and have them register, but I'm running into the problem that TXRedstate had where they keep going for it. - Steve0wn1 month agoRising Traveler
UPDATE AGAIN:
Just got it to 5 stars. I think the key is that you have to score and then force their punt all before the 2min warning. After it's inside 2 mins the computer will shift into go-for-it mode. I used all my timeouts while on defense to force the punt before 2 mins. - Steve0wn1 month agoRising Traveler
One further thought on how to make them punt: You could punt immediately instead of trying to score. Making them go 3-and-out quickly should make it even easier to get the punt yards out of the way before focusing on getting the points.

Successful 5 star completion after noticing CPU is more prone to punt on 4th down after a 3rd down incomplete pass.
Attempted the "punt immediately" method at the challenge beginning but CPU still went for it on 4th down with 2+ mins on clock.

I’ve done the challenge 40 times, every which you all have said and I still can’t get them to punt. It’s just really frustrating how broken ultimate team is right now. Even the safety punt doesn’t track.

I had to score and miss 2pt conversion pin them deep on kick off and get a safety and punt it back to them cause safety punt returns don’t count when I got the to 4th and long that drive they punted it .. but be safe and save ur timeouts just in case ea be cheese and still lets them go for it but that’s what I had to do and it was stressful

Did you do something to get the point to count or it just all of a sudden worked? Got no issue with forcing the punt, it’s just literally not counting when I score.
