Stamina drain is broken

Not sure if a recency bias but the stamina drain feels worse this past week than it did previously.  Also did we lose the ability to turn off auto hustle?  I been trying to avoid hitting hustle at all to retain stamina and it still drains.  Can't find the option anymore.

As a Dman I’ve noticed that using No Contest  is very good at what’s it intended for but it also drains my stamina and endurance more than not using it.  I’ve heard several others mention the same thing.

Both my G and D builds have high Durability and Endurance.  Even when playing passively and sometimes barely moving my player just drains more than it probably should.  This is obviously EA’s intention.  It could/should be toned down a bit to be less effective.

The only issue with this is you're pretty much wasting an important slot (especially now with the truculence and speed meta combining together), on a near useless ability that can only really be activated in preventable situations

Try second wind (x-factor) see if it works for you on stamina 

It's because the pressure system they added to the game is a beyond terrible idea they keep shoving down our throats.  Logic behind it makes no sense and it's just a dumb gimmick forced.

You can earn more stamina with certain Xfactors (I can't remember the exact name, the symbol has a player with a C), but there are definitely more Xfactors that do a better job draining the stamina of others.

The series has always catered to offense and I don't see that changing any time soon - The only reliable way of guaranteeing enough energy to make a frantic rush back (assuming yiu're playing 3v3), is to pre-emptively stop dead in your tracks and hang back on an upcoming play thr moment you get that "bad feeling"
