On Xbox One - I'm having the same problem here. It starts when I try to save during offline franchise. It hangs and doesn't "freeze" but it doesn't progress either. It just gets stuck in the "please wait" portion of the save and leaves me no choice but to force quit the game. Then, when it reloads, it won't load the save file because it's been corrupted. It has done this three times to me now. The first two times, when I first bought it. I had an owner franchise going and I was 5 weeks into it. Then it crapped out and any attempt to load the game either brought me back to the main screen or froze the game. So I went back into franchise and tried to start a player franchise. Made it as far as my first training in preseason, only it never loaded because it froze up entirely. So, I thought something might be wrong with the download (purchased it on xbl - no disc). So I uninstalled it and then reinstalled it. Deleted every save file from before and tried another player franchise. created a QB and had a brilliant first game (592 yards and 6TDs on all-pro - with the Bears). Immediately tried to save it and it's hanging again and just won't finish the save. I'm looking at the screen now. The music is still playing and the "save bar" is still animated. It just keeps saying "please wait." I don't know what else to do at this point. But so far, this has been an effectively useless purchase.

None of the suggestions provided in this thread have helped. My xbox one system is completely up to date. I had not originally had any downloaded files when this problem started. Incidentally, I had also been experiencing lag during non-online games, such as MUT challenges and during offline franchise mode. It would occasionally stammer where the screen would freeze for a second and then continue, but it would do it in moderate intervals. Like, it would do it, while the players were approaching the line and then again mid play. But then it might wait a player or two and then do it again.

Same problem here. Been a month now. No fix. Even worse with latest update. Can't play at all now.
