One somewhat annoying issue I have is not being able to hit a button to skip thru a lot of the cut scenes.

Happy to report that yes it would appear the Cardinals do in fact suck. At half-time of the seahawks game Luck is 6 of 13 98 yards 1 td (I blew my man assignment) and 1 int. All the highlight catches that were being made against the Cardinals are being broken up against the Seahawks. That is pretty cool to see the difference in the teams.

IIRC, the game still does an actual coin toss sequence at the start of overtime, but I'm not 100% positive.

Yes coin toss is there in OT. Just had an OT game yesterday to confirm.

Go play with the Skins and you'll see an even worse secondary and defense. I can't stop anything with them. Yet when I've played with the Panthers or Dolphins I've had much more success. At least with the passing game that is. As the Dolphins against the 49ers, I couldn't stop the rushing attack at all.

I am loving how you do need to double cover receivers this year. I just wish the CPU would use the presnap adjustments to do the same. As the Panthers against the Lions, I was double covering Megatron all 4th quarter and he didn't get a single catch because of it. It was thrown his way, but broken up every time thanks to the double coverage.

Not familiar with my favorite team are we? lol. Funny thing is I beat the Dolphins once I moved D. Hall out of the number 1 WR spot as he was getting ate up.

Haha, I knew they were, just didn't know if you had played many games with them. I might have to try that. The whole defense was just awful in my experience. May have been me getting used to the game also.

Now, you can. A nice extra layer of strategy and roster management when injuries occur.

I lost Stafford to a broken collarbone against the Ravens in the 2nd quarter down 13 to 7 and I knew I was in trouble. I actually had the lead at half 14-13 but I ultimately lost 34-23. Orvlosky actually did a good job but I was making a lot more conservative throws. When I got more aggressive with him; I threw 2 picks.
