Can you block FG's in this years game?

I blocked one field goal, but that was the play I was testing the bug on. I would hope at this point I wouldn't have blocked any field goals in the 5-6 games that I played. It feels a lot like last year where it can happen, but unless there is a bug to exploit it will be very very rare.

Did the jerseys get dirty, if they did was it progressively?

Great impressions btw

I did not notice it in the build that we were playing, so I'll go with no. Although they have said that they will get dirty, so apperently that part of the game just isn't ready to show yet.

I blocked FGs just fine (realistic rate) in 2k4. My question in regards with this would be is it possible to get a push up the middle, but that would need to be asked rather than seen unless you just got lucky in the short play time. It would be nice if they gave you an option of where you wanted to TRY to get pressure on FGs (middle or edges) but if there were a change like that in the menu options I'm sure you guys would've mentioned it.

Do you have the option to change the replays to full screen instead of in the playcalling menu?

Did you get to see any of the other francise options like the Trey Wingo Francise Show and Kiper doing his Big Board? Were they virtual like Berman and did they not match the words all the time like Berman?

Sounds like a great game. I like that their trying to do the francise different from Madden. Will be great when I get bored with Madden that ESPN won't be the same.

Thank you for answering our questions. How is the DB AI. Is it better than last year?

Sorry, no.
What you can see at E3 is rather limited, sometimes by design; but most of the time by necessity.
