Always recover onside kicks
Turn off penalties at the game play settings menu. When kicking off,
select the "Onside Kick" play. Kick the ball with a power of 10. Your
opponent will not be able to recover, and you will not get called for
Illegal Procedure. As long as you do not turn the ball over, you can stay
on offense the entire game and shut the other team out.

Better offense
In order to create more open passes, set "picks" for your other receivers
in order to get them wide open. You can do this by controlling a wide
receiver yourself and putting a pick on a defender; or you can set
crosses, posts, curls, or flys by hot-routing other receivers near by.
This usually works, and often has good results if you set the picks
correctly. This is especially helpful when in need of a first down, near
the endzone, or for a conversion.

Better defense
If you control one of your linemen and hold Left Analog-stick Down before
the snap, you will get a better jump on trying to get to the quarterback
or fullback. If you want to prevent the deep pass or the run, a good play
to use is Deep Pass. This is useful when the other team is inside their
own ten on forth down and goes for it.

Better kicks
When kicking, try and keep the Right Analog-stick straight when going from
down to up. This allows for a more accurate kick instead of one that may
end up out of bounds.
