Am I the only person that doesn't even worry about RPs while on the field? I mean, with all the madness on the field last year, I had fifteen other things going on when I had field coach duty. Making sure we didn't beat anyone by too much just was down on the list.

Perhaps this season's game will allow for teams to keep more aware of the game status, allowing for more control over this. (Memo to self: make sure to ask the video guys to keep the RTS posted.)
