I seem to remember hearing that from the PS1 days. They always say that.

Not to rain on any parades but keep in mind that I controlled both of those QBs...

And I'm terrible.

Thanks for the response. Very good write up by the way!

Thanks, and no problem!

In regards to money plays, they've definitely eliminated a ton of them from last year. Of course, the more time we spend with the game, the more we'll actually test the theory. I think they deserve at least a little credit for admitting that it has been a huge problem and doing what they can to fix it.

Looks like they are improving Madden this year. Still going to skip it since it looks like they haven't added enough for me. Glad they are improving Madden though.

Some encouraging things to hear.

It was definitely apparent, in my time with the game.

Well, hope they corrected this for all cpu runners (RB, TE, WR, etc)...JP saw otherwise but this was a serious issue in 15...if they did not correct it in 16 ALL THE TIME it will be pretty bad.

Shop talked about it briefly last night too and said that players were staying in bounds now. Plus he tweeted this recently.

@brooklyncore: @Shopmaster did I just hear sideline passes to my full back , he heads up the field instead of sliding outta bounds IAM SOLD! !

@Shopmaster: @brooklyncore yes, they will! It's awesome!
