For me... FPS is the majority of my play so I've gotten to where those are an automatic hard, veteran, hardened type setting.
Madden on All-Madden is the best challenge, but really pisses me off too much (i.e. CPU is losing and all of a sudden their D starts INTing everything) so like you I play on All Pro mostly.
I honestly don't remember the last time I played a game at an "easy" or beginner setting though.... Civilization maybe?
Man I suck at Madden. All Pro at the highest, I get my [BLEEP] handed to me on All Madden.
....but that's bc the game cheats.
Yeah... well.. cheats is a strong word... but the AI difference from all pro to all madden is crazy.
If I play a whole season on All Madden I usually end up with about 10 wins.
On all pro I can usually complete a perfect season (usually)

One thing I realized about playing Madden is that when in Franchise mode, you have to switch playbooks every 3 or 4 games, otherwise the computer will adjust to your play calling, and you will end up with those games where they stop all of your runs and jump all of your routes.
I try to approach the schedule like NFL teams do. In the preseason, I use just Balanced offense and 4-3 defense for weeks 1, 2 and 4. In week 3, I use the main playbook to "reacquaint" myself with it.
Then in the regular season, I play mostly with the Jaguars playbooks on offense and defense. When I switch up, I try to use playbooks of teams that are similar in approach to the Jaguars, but have minor differences that will impact playcalling. Like the Chargers, Falcons and Seahawks run similar defensive schemes to us in real life. I will switch and use one of their defensive playbooks. Offensively, since Marrone was under Payton in New Orleans, sometimes I will use their offense.
Honestly, I've never thought about switching up playbooks mid season....
It's so simple, yet brilliant.
