    Yeah. It's nearly impossible to open field tackle on this one too. This game is a lot like Chris Johnson, Either you get a homerun on every play, or 1 yard. There is no such thing as "3 yards and a cloud of dust" on this game. If you run goal line formation, you WILL bust one off for a 50 yard gain, which is not entirely realistic.

    Heard that Madden 2011 is the best in the series. Of all the Maddens that have been out there.

    Eh, I like the flow of the game. But the run and return game is a little off. It seems like I put all my effort to make it to the 20 yard line and usually don't. With the run game I can never seem to break over a 20+ yard run but I am constantly rushing for 15/20 yards a pop lol.

    oh and on my franchise in week 3 some weird stats......

    Tony Brown has 7 sacks
    Cortland Finn. has 3 INTs with 2 run backs.

    I agree completely, Tulloch constantly bounces off average receivers on a perfectly lined up hit. Gets really frustrating.

    Depending on your defenses formation, pick sixes and sacks are EASY. I like picking my plays, I find that I run man coverage 80% of the time. It ends up resulting in 5-6 sacks per game, and with quite a few picks. I like the game play, but the options are getting worse. EA is slacking in some areas.

    Out of curiosity, are you getting sacks with your DL or LBs/DBs? I've played four games so far and am yet to register a single sack with a D-lineman. Verner is leading my team with 3 sacks. :sad2:

    I get consistent pressure but the QB always manages to launch the ball downfield (off-balance mind you) a split second before I wrap him up. Out of the many, many, many gameplay issues with Madden this just might be the one that bothers me the most. It wasn't this way 4 or 5 years ago. DL pressure/sacks used to be much better. I really don't understand how certain things manage to regress so drastically with EA.

    I agree INTs and pick 6's are easy. I get at least 2 INTs in every game and seem to run at least one of them back.

    BTW, what difficulty setting are you playing on?

    Oh, has anyone else besides #45 noticed the "New York Titans" thing yet? I know it doesn't affect gameplay so some will argue it isn't THAT big of a deal. But still, how does something so obvious and so simple to fix make it into the final product?

    Nearly all of my sacks are from defensive linemen. I don't play on the All-Madden difficulty. It's on All-Pro, maybe that's your problem? Either way, I like being the LDE. I've found that in Madden 11, Ford, Morgan, and Hayes all have good moves to elude the tackle or tight end. That's why I'm big on Madden 11, because I'm always the LDE, and in this years Madden, any of our DE's are good pass rushers.

    I haven't heard the "New York Titans" thing, but I'll be listening for it. I have 360 btw, maybe its a PS3 problem.

    The Team online play is AWESOME though. Try it out. I don't think I'll ever play 1v1 again.

    User picks are ridiculous in this game. Everyone has figured out that zone coverage is useless, so they run man-to-man 95% of the time. God forbid you throw a go route, otherwise you'll see the guy take control of the DB last second and get a user pick.

    This game pretty much comes down to who has the best runningback and cornerbacks.

    cj is a beast in this game i get 200 with him every time i just wish our defense was a lil better and for some reason i cant seem to pull off any finesse moves with the d lineman other than that i think this game is alright i just wish the ea contract would hurry up and expire so i can go back to playin nfl 2k
    every year ill play madden for a lil while then go back and play nfl 2k5 with updated rosters
    also i dont know if anybody noticed but its pretty tight when u win the super bowl and they make the comment that number 9 is looking down smiling
