After months of playing franchise mode I have to say it is sad that they removed owner mode. Having the only choice of head coach just doesn't provide a fun experience in my opinion. As I stated in an earlier reply I would love to see the developers give us a GM mode. This would provide a true experience of running an NFL team. Firing/hiring coaches, scouting players/college prospects, building an NFL dynasty cannot be truly enjoyed in the mode as it stands today. I just don't find many of the "new" features of being a head coach as necessary, with most of them being annoying. I skip the scripted conversations between HC and staff/players, play sheets are useless, and as many have stated, real life coaches coaching well into their 80's or 90's by simulating multiple seasons is laughable. Unfortunately, moving forward franchise mode is most likely going to stay like this, an annoying mode that would be better if they left it alone.
