I definitely have a problem with the passes. I don't have a problem with Madden, so I think I hit the D-pad correctly to start, but my thumb must slide during the actual pass motion. It's a shame they didn't go for the Madden style of passing. I don't normally have a problem kicking or selecting plays, though.
I noticed a tiny little bug when I started my Dynasty -- in the preseason menu, they still have the preseason 119, even though there's 120 teams now. Poor Wyoming gets left out if sorted by team name...
Something that's not a bug, but I can't imagine why they would have bothered to code it this way is the coin toss. Why only have the kick/receive options and not the choice to choose side instead? I guess they did it as part of their "more casual" style, but at least give me an option.
I hope not being able to name your coach is an oversight or bug and not really a design choice. Seeing that "new coach PSU coach is eager..." in the ESPN magazine is very cheesy.
Still fun to play, though.
