Sure, you can on the console version, though I've found the text sim games are able to focus more on the managerial aspects than a console game.

Contract negotiations, depth charts, training, playing time, having depth, injuries, recruiting (especially in a multiplayer college football game). I've found all of these to be much more intensive in a text sim than a regular console game.

I don't play much on the consoles nowadays. Blowing away the computer in the dynasty mode every game gets...boring. At least to me.

Not being able to control the players by pressing buttons makes me more reliant on putting a good team together that can win without the benefit of me hitting the A, X, or whatever button it is.

Playing in a multiplayer league is even more challenging.
