Challenge: Stop an Opponent's Gamebreaker

Opposing Team: Random Team
Difficulty: Legendary Skills
Challenge Cost: 160 Tokens
Rewards: 1,120 Development Points, Baggy Pants 5
Challenge Description: Your opponent has an active Gamebreaker. Stop them from scoring.

Actual Difficulty: ***

Strategy: To succeed, you'll need to force a turnover. Look for opportunities to dive for bobbled balls or recover fumbles. A recommended tactic is to pick a man-coverage play and line up your Linebacker (LB) on the weak side. As the play begins, move directly downfield. If the Quarterback (QB) pitches the ball towards your side, there's a good chance you can break up the pitch and force a fumble. Recover the ball quickly to complete the challenge.

Challenge: Pitch the Ball Six Times on First Play

Opposing Team: Bengals
Difficulty: Legendary Skills
Challenge Cost: 160 Tokens
Rewards: 1,120 Development Points
Challenge Description: Successfully pitch the ball six times on your first play against the Bengals.

Actual Difficulty: *****+

Strategy: This is one of the game's hardest challenges. Focus on increasing your team's speed to 15/20. Run the 'Smash' play up the left side, keeping your QB behind your Running Back (RB). Near the first down line, pitch to your QB (Drop-Off). Pass to your Wide Receiver (WR) and pitch back to him (Double Drop) to get into open space. If teammates catch up, pitch to them if they aren't closely guarded (Hat Trick). If the defense is closing in, run down the right sideline using turbo. Pitch to the next player you see (Four To Score), then run in front of them and pitch back (Something-About-A-Thumb). Repeat this process, pitching to the nearest player (Quick Six) and then one last time for the final pitch (Lucky Seven).

Challenge: Force and Recover Two Fumbles and Win

Opposing Team: Steelers
Difficulty: Legendary Skills
Challenge Cost: 200 Tokens
Rewards: +3 Run Power Pads
Challenge Description: Force and recover two fumbles and beat the Steelers in a game to 28.

Actual Difficulty: ***

Strategy: If forcing turnovers is difficult, use defensive Gamebreakers. Implement a consistent blitzing scheme to increase the chances of the ball coming loose.

Challenge: First Drive Touchdown Against Gamebreaker

Opposing Team: Random Team
Difficulty: Mad Skills
Challenge Cost: 200 Tokens
Rewards: +3 Speed Shoes
Challenge Description: On your first drive, run for a TD against a team that has an active Gamebreaker.

Actual Difficulty: ****

Strategy: This challenge can be very easy or very hard depending on luck. Use only passing plays, as run plays are highly risky due to the defense swarming and frequent fumbles. One method is to have the QB run for short gains, going out of bounds to avoid defenders. Sometimes WRs can set up blocks. Avoid getting greedy. Another method involves passing: either throw deep and dive for the catch, or make short passes to WRs near the sidelines to get out of bounds. Crucially, do not run the ball in for a touchdown after a catch. When close to the endzone, use a pass play and have the QB run it in.
