Heavy Snow Games

I'll start by saying that I have genuinely been enjoying the game a ton so far. I've been playing Superstar and the updates to the format this year have been great. But EA, can we PLEASE drastically turn down the fumble rate in heavy snow games? It's so disappointing because the weather itself looks so good, but playing as a QB my team fumbles the ball at least once every single drive. My first game we literally lost 7 out of 9 fumbles, 9 fumbles in a single game! I'm not even through a single quarter of my 2nd heavy snow game and we've already lost 3 fumbles. 

My guess is that this is tuned so that you see at least 1 or 2 extra fumbles in a game with 5 min quarters, but for someone who's trying to have the most realistic experience possible and playing with 15 min quarters, these games are basically un-winable because it doesn't seem like the increased fumble rate applies to simmed drives, so my opponent doesn't turn the ball over at all. 

Please EA, I want to look forward to playing these snow games, not dread them because I know we're going to lose no matter how many out routes I try and throw to limit how many times my guys get tackled in bounds 😅

    At least you’ve had snow ! I’ve finished multiple seasons with northern teams and it’s only rained 3 times! It’s soul destroying having been the no1 thing I wanted to see be brought into the game and then see every single game dry
