QB sneak, punt/kickoff returns and other minority issues

Product: Madden 18
Platform:Sony Playstation 4
Which console generation do you have? PlayStation 4
Which mode has this happened in? Play Now
Summarize your bug These problems happen during a game, regardless the mode (Franchise, MUT...). 1- When I call a QB sneak, the QB falls down just after the snap without any gain. I called this play three times (2nd&inches, 3rd&inches, 4th&inches) and I had a turnover because the QB dived automatically withouth any gain in every play. 2- During the play call in a punt/kickoff return, I am always given the same plays. For example, I know there is a "return middle" and a "return left" for a punt return, but I don't know why I am shown "return left" three times in the play call screen and I can't call the "return middle". The same happens during kickoff returns. Usually I get the same return play repeated three times in the play call screen while others are not shown. 3- I don't understand why we can't see the wind speed and direction in every play. If you are the coach, you are on the field and you know the wind speed and direction. Or, at least, an estimation of them. Sometimes, the difference between choosing a punt or a field goal is the wind, but we are not allowed to know this data until we have chosen one of them... I think it's unrealistic. 4- This is not an issue, but an improvement. In the play call screen, if you take the suggested plays, some plays are shown. But, in these plays, the formation/personnel it's not clearly specified. I think it's easy to add a text line to specify formation or personnel in these plays. Of course, you guess the formation/personnel with the shown diagram, but sometimes, specially in defense, it's difficult to differentiate a LB from a DL.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? 1- Play QB sneak. 2- Play some returns during the game. 3- Just play. 4- Chose the suggested plays in the play call screen.
What happens when the bug occurs? These issues happen during the game, but are not bugs per se. The game continues.
What do you expect to see? 1- A realistic QB sneak. I assume that I will not gain more than 1 or 2 yards with a QB sneak, but at least, I expect to gain some inches if the offensive line does its job. 2- I expect to see every return option during the play call, because it's totally feasible. 3- I would like to see the wind speed and direction (or an estimation) during the play call. 4- A text line with formation/personnel information in the suggested plays.
