    Please no to the Coach Adjustments if it's anything like NCAA's set it and forget it system was of Aggressive, Balanced or Conservative.

    Love to hear more specifically regarding how Target Passing will work. Especially if it is how I envision of being able to throw to a targeted area or spot..pylon, and not just directly at the WR.


    Simulation mode and Coverage assignments, definitely would love to get that back in the game.

    The passing target interests me. Coverage assignments would be nice. I've been frustrated the last two years with this game. I need to see some nice improvements if I pick this up again.

    Is it just me or is it "telling" that we are basically 2 months out from release and little to no info actually exists about this year's "improvements"/changes?

    Best I can tell there is a movie mode 3 on 3 MUT and that's about it other than some vague reference to a new ability to control your passes more.

    It doesn't sound like there are major improvements. In doubt there is a demo this year either. Just EA Access.

    Not even a blip on my radar this year. Madden has killed video game football for me. The game still boasts the worst immersion in sports games. It's sad really...

    Madden will always be a blip on my radar. I bought it last year when I got it for $30 off on an E3 sale. No great deal this time as I probably would have bought it at that price even as a rental. My biggest disappointment was War of the Shadow was supposed to come out late August and got pushed back. Probably not getting Madden this year. Looking more forward to NBA Live.
