I know you can turn them off in a Play Now game, I haven't played a game in Franchise yet so I'm not sure about that. The option to turn them off is in the menu you get when you press the 2 button at the screen where you're setting things up before the game.

Thx, that worked like a charm!

However, the same Settings Menu in Franchise mode does NOT have this option.  Should we not be able to turn it off, thats a huge F up on EA's part, as Franchise mode isn't exactly where the casual crowd will be hanging.

Also, does the "boost" even do anything?

Ideally there should be a way to turn it off globally by default in settings.

I think Boost does make your guy stronger. After making a touchdown I went for two points against a human opponent and my RB got a boost which caused him to break 3 tackles to get into the in-zone.

I think that may just be how the game is, a friend of mine broke 5 tackles, 3 of which happened at the same time, returning a punt against me with no boost.

If this is the way it is in franchise, thats absolutely ridiculous!  Waving your arms around with your friends can be for a good laugh, but what kind of human being enjoys doing that when they're all by them self???

Seriously it is not that big of a deal. It doesn't happen all the time and it is over quickly.

It is for me, I score all the time!   Just beat the Texans 66-7.

Ok...figured it out...You have to turn them off in "Play Now", and THEN you start a NEW Franchise.  Sheeesh, leave it up to EA to make is a** backwards.

Good thing I'm only one game into the season.
