I had the opportunity to capture some footage and check out some of the new features of NFL Head Coach 09, while chatting it up with one of the Producers.

That looks really cool.

Hey, I hear the "Americas Game" theme from the NFL Network there in the background...love that piece. Odd that with the ESPN license and all, that the NFLN would be more prominently used.

One other thing about the gameplay - the accelerated clock and 15 minute quarters is all well and good, but it ain't gonna mean jack if the game clock is accelerated while the play clock runs normally. Watch closely during the gameplay segments.

Other than that, it's looking really good so far.

Cool, thanks for the video! It does look like it has improved from the original.

However, I have to say that on camera, the EA guy's voice sounds exactly like mine, and it was strange watching a video where it sounded like I was narrating it.

Amen at this producer. Listen at 3:15 and on. This guy is a genius, finally somebody doing what they should have been focusing on for years

Is that where he starts talking about getting 120 plays and good tackle #'s? I agree, we haven't heard that kinda stuff from EA very often...

^ I was actually talking about "getting the AI right" Where he would talk about how stupid it is to face a team that picked a QB or RB that didnt even make sense. Or a team that has like 3 QBs on its roster, and still drafts a QB in the first round.
