for all you guys that say its easy, maybe you practiced for an hour and I didnt because sometimes the physics made no sense in relation to the arrow direction, I never thought it easy.

and punting made no sense either, you point the arrow far right and he still kiocks it down the middle ?
I find that to be a wrong in my opinion.

You realize that you have to move the stick in the direction you're aiming, not just up and down, right?

I guess some people could still use that instruction manual! :D:D

But seriously though :fp: :

You didn't know that? :o

to be honest, i think I did know that because I could angle short pooch punts but maybe the angle still has to be extreme on long ones. when you dont play for a while ,you lose details.

Let's be honest. The real reason play action was toned down last year was because Ian Cummings used to spam the PA FB play and dump it off for cheap yards every time. The other devs got tired of him running that same play over and over so they removed the effectiveness for it when he wasn't looking!

hey got a quick question that i had hoped they fixed... can we still NOT motion anyone on Auto-Motion plays? that is annoying to me... as long as out motion is set before the Auto-Motion is triggered then all is well in the football world...

Oh and along the same line, is it possible to flip an auto-motion play. I don't mean the entire formation shifts around, only the run and blocking direction.

That video was awesome. Those guys were throwing laser bombs with no effort. Every pass was pretty.

Exactly! The studs just throw darts almost with ease. Man do I miss Marino what a quick release and pin point accuracy to boot.

way to find a vid of some qb's who've had some of the strongest arms in nfl history. unfortunately, i wasnt asking for that.

do qb's have the wind up animation to throw the ball significantly downfield?

Well if you mean the typical HS QB then the answer is mostly yes, but I would venture to believe the cannon arm QB's like Elway, Marino, Favre, etc.. were throwing darts even back in HS. I played QB and had a Warren Moon type delivery and arm strength so it wasn't very hard to throw the ball 40 yards on a rope for me back in school.
