my only question of negativity on this game

[icebergisonfire]

in almost all the videos, it shows the ball carrier hold the ball with the wrong hand, is there a way to change that?

[spankdatazz22]

Yeah, irritates the hell out of me - made a thread about it awhile back. I'm crossing my fingers that they can get it straight before the game releases, but kinda doubting it

Huh? Since when is there a "right" hand to carrier the ball with?

Yes. The ball should be in the ballcarrier's hand closest to the sideline . . . so that if the ball comes out, it'll go out of bounds and the offense will retain the ball.

That's one of the basics of RB play in real football....Also, you cover the ball with both hands in traffic.

The ball needs to be away from where the contact will occur, decreasing the chance of a fumble, and too what the above gentlemen said. Good question, must never have carried a football before.

while it is correct form, i know that not all rb's do it. i think emmitt smith and ahman green each hold the ball in one hand exclusively. clearly, ahman is a poor example, but he did get rid of his fumblitis after the philly game last year.

That problem can be corrected by pressing the appropriate stiff arm button, forcing the ball carrier to switch hands.
