Looking forward to seeing how this does.

Yet again I may have to tweak the sliders LOL. No biggie, it should not be too much that needs tweaking if it indeed makes the passing game tougher and the pass Rush better.

It ain't rocket science.

I had given Madden a rest after playing since release. I have not touched it in 3 weeks. So need to get back to my year one chise after I download this. I have been obsessed with NBA 2K11 and for good reason.

This ^. Seen some posts but no real thoughts or details, just a bunch of empty, vague posts (unless I've overlooked something).

Well I downloaded the patch last week - I have no doubt that the patch has loaded as my sliders - which were prefect - have been torn to shreds by the patch.

Luckily for patch analysis I track and record every play of my 16 game season so I can quantify the result.

I have played 2 games of Season 7 of my franchise under the patch so far.

Last season my running game was averaging 4.5 yards per carry. After two games under the patch it is down to 2.9!

My run defense last season was 3.4 yards per carry - so far this season it is 2.9 per carry.

Looking like big improvements on the run defense - I will need to adjust blocking and reaction sliders for both Hum & CPU.

But what I can't understand is why pass defence appears to have fallen apart. I see nothing in the patch notes that would indicate this. Yet my pass defence has gone from 4.5 per attempt (league leading last season) to 9.7! And my defence actually got better (well was supposed to) in the off season with the progress of my 2 1st round CB's (Tynes and Knowlton).

Meanwhile just to prove the point my passing offence has gone from a medicore 5.9 yards per attempt to 7.5 despite the addition of only one 78 OVR WR.

Anyone else seeing the same thing? Run defense has been boosted but pass defence has fallen into a hole? I tend to play man to man defence, so not sure if zone is now better.

I've got a major headache now changing all the sliders...
