The changes the ‘do’ make, are virtually all cosmetic, and they don’t fix the actual football part of the game.
It’s not Madden, but I’ve been playing NCAA for a month now as a few RTG players; mostly OLBs. It’s ridiculous.
If you place yourself where you’re supposed to be based on the play, you’ll never make a play. Seriously…never. I played an entire season this way – playing how the play is drawn up – and registered a whopping 6 tackles as a LB.
The only way you stand a chance is to assume the play is going away from you and line up based on your own football knowledge. The play calling is a joke; the same 10 plays over and over and over again. And reeruned situational play calling, such as a 3-4 when the offense has less than a yard to go for the endzone/goaline.
Since these are both made by EA, I’m nearly certain that Madden has a lot of the same issues.

It's true to life, they employed Paul Hackett as the brains behind the playcalling!
