I'm sure the NFL wants it, but I'm not so sure EA still feels it's worth the money to have the exclusive license anymore. It will probably come down to how much money EA thinks they will lose paying for the exclusive license versus how much money they will lose allowing 2K to get back in the NFL game.

My thoughts exactly, and I'm a little bit scared because with the success of the 2K basketball series and how they've pretty much destroyed Live, and with how great ESPN NFL 2K5 was, I'm scared EA Sports will try to keep 2M out of the picture by renewing because honestly lets face it, if 2K gets football, you could possibly see EA Sports career being DONEZO. Madden since Madden 04 has been pretty much the same game with some tweaks, a few major ones and a few minor ones, more animations, etc. no drastic improvement and definitely not where a football video game should be, and that's pretty much the ONLY thing EA Sports has, and to allow 2K back into the field (when they haven't missed a beat whatsoever (ESPN 2K5, College Hoops 2K8, NBA 2K6-NBA 2K12)) would be suicide.

Love this post, very true. I love 2K, and it's not perfect but there's not other game that holds my attention until the next year of it.
