Why did you think ditching owner mode was a good idea?

EA and all are weak.

Must have maxed the hard drive on new visuals, intro scenes, and animations again...had to cut something to fit it all. Literally I would scrap the intros and cut scenes and all the extra garbage for just more options of how we get to play. Still no All-Time teams or older rosters for nostalgic franchises either. Soon the game will just be called MUT...

I actually learned about that from a youtube who was reviewing the game. He should how the mode is, and even went on to say they removed it for the coaching stuff, which seems to be a forced into this direction. When I reached out to EA, they basically said "Owner was not a popular part of the mode and the focus on coaching was long overdue" Yet all the fancy coaching, lump with being a Gm didn't help as much. I didn't buy the game, but friend did who pointed out removing owner didn't change much but the coaching part didn't make it better. Having real coaches and long overdue assistants shouldn't take away from the game...since the had them back in 12.. but adding the dna doesn't make you play better, or make a big impact. Sure coach like Glenn but I still played like me which doesn't always follow the coach.
