Maybe I just dont understand the rules of football, but...

Yep. Most blocked FG's in the NFL occur straight up the middle. I can't even remember seeing a defender get one coming of the edge because they're taking the longest path possible path to get there. When I played online, I never even bothered attempting to get it that way, because it seemed too unrealistic, especially when you consider the fact that you have the luxury of knowing exactly when the kick is coming by watching the meter. NFL2K1 was the only football game I've played where you get a push up the middle, and jump to get the block. 2K1's application of FG blocking wasn't perfect, but it had the right idea.

ed reed comes from the end. it does happen from the speedsters on the outside too, but the fact that it NEVER happens from the middle in 2k5 is bad.
