I think EA had the right idea for once with these play locks coming to HR, but I feel like they took the easiest route possible to fixing a huge problem with gameplay. The best way to prevent people from calling the same play over an over is if it doesn’t work. And what I mean by that is, instead of forcing us to call “new” plays, why don’t you just give us better tools to stop the over powered plays (i.e give us better ways to stop stretch, or more tools to get offensive lineman to pickup nano-blitzes). This would increase the amount of skill needed to be good at this game, and would make gameplay much more diverse.
