Never lose the ball
After you score a touchdown, pause the game and go to the 'options' menu. Scroll down to the penalties menu, and turn off 'illegal onside kick.' Then, do an onside kick and aim the meter as far left and as low down as possible. Kick it really short and the ball will bounce into the air right next to you. Then, your man should catch the ball. You should be able to kick the ball less than ten yards and not get charged for a penalty. This is a good way to score points fast and never lose the ball.
