While some teams do use the no huddle in real life, the in game mechanic is still too unrealistic to allow it to be used in the league (outside of the specified parameters). Why EA (after having this same issue in NCAA 3 years ago) cannot get this right I do not know. But until they make it a little more realistic we cannot allow teams to go full out no huddle.
The biggest issue is that it is way too quick to get to your next play. You can pick your play as your team is running up to the line and snap it as soon as it is set. In real life (outside of maybe a scripted no huddle play or two) you have the QB calling the play while the defense sets (or, as in college, the players looking to the sideline for the play). The game just hasn't mimicked this anywhere near realistic so we have to put in restrictions like these in the meantime.

Ok. What if we our self try and mimic the no huddle more like real life in pre season since we are using twitch you could review a few games and depending on how pre season went decide If that could be made a rule as long as a majority age was kind of like a real nfl league where the owners vote on it. Just an idea majesty95
I don't have the time to review multiple games and it will be something that is not easily regulated. So the no huddle rules will remain as posted.
That wasn't actually an updated list. We need to get an updated list and merge it with the league description/sign up thread. I think HyDroChloRic_v or Dylan22 were working on that. I did add you now though

Preseason will advance once every 24 hours. Regular season will advance twice per week.

Hey guys, league is up and going, but still waiting on a few people to accept invites before we can get to the pre-season. As of 6:30AM central time this morning, the following people haven't accepted invites; iTvizzyy HyDroChloRic_v Louisville31 Rickwallace27 and UCtruegame15 .. True game, you said your GT was UCTruegame, but it said that wasn't a real GT so I sent the invite to UCTruegame15, let me know if thats not you. Also, everyone familiarize yourself with the league rules and instructions, especially regarding the waiver wire, transactions and how the first two weeks of the pre-season work. Take a look at the PS4 league forum to get a visual idea of what will be going on.

I will soon .
Yes, as has been mentioned, the scheduling thread is for setting up games. We will create a scheduling thread when the week is advanced and that can be used to set up your games. During the preseason, since we are using a shortened advance cycle, if you cannot agree on a time with your opponent, the game will be simmed. During the regular season, we will advance twice a week so you should have plenty of time to set up games with your opponents.
