FIX THIS

I played this game for the first time. I thought it’d be fun but now I’m picking some of the best players and they can’t even intercept a football every time they throw it I’m fully guarding them and it does not get intercepted and it’s one of my best players but then when I get sacked, it’s always a fumble also one of the best quarterbacks and but every time they get sacked, it doesn’t get fumbled

Disappointed

App crashes very consistently and I am unable to start a game and pick it up later
Since it’s a paid app I expected more. I would go elsewhere for gaming
