Hi, another newbie here - my team are currently playing their 2nd game with me having set the tactics/playbook.

What I need to know is how to ensure a decent amount of player rotation? My QBs are swapping in and out, but other positions seem not to be - particularly RB. I'd like my FB to be getting some of the carries for example - he is 2nd on the list for RB in the depth chart, but 1st for FB. Does a FB get any carries when running from the I formation?

My experience is: When I-formation, the FB is only there to block, there is the HBs job to run.
But with Wishbone or shotgun, you see that your FB is running.
With Wishbone somtimes, cause there is a HB too.
And ever with shotgun, cause you have only a FB.

Thanks for the reply...

When I played the game at Uni a while ago we ran quite a few FB dives from the I formation, usually as a short yardage option or a variation to surprise the defense.
