What are the biggest learning curves if I jump in to 15?...

Man coverage gets you toasted. I played predominantly man coverages with blitzes from sega genesis up to Madden 13. I switch over to 15, and my defenders are constantly getting burned if I go man to man.
Moving to zone coverages, I rack up a completely stupid amount of sacks on all pro difficulty. Going to need to find some custom sliders to get this shit situated, because right now my Chiefs are all QB killing sack machines and its so unrealistic that its really ridiculous.
In the first season I played these were the sack totals.
Houston: 35
Hali: 21
Poe: 17
Bailey:12
Howard: 9
Johnson: 7
Mays: 10
Berry: 3
Gaines: 5
There were a few guys in there with one here and there. I play up front on the line as Dontari Poe, Bullrush the middle and push the C/G back into the QB's face. The CPU does the rest with some other players. I rarely rushed with Hali or Houston and they simply destroyed the QB when he would try to escape the pocket I was collapsing.
Its fun for the first few games, but God damn. I went from getting hardly any sacks, and a bajillion interceptions in Madden 13, to getting hardly any interceptions but destroying QB's so often that they would rarely break 200 yards of offense due to the sack yardage piling up.
