Should the Calvin Johnson Rule Be 'In The Game' (Madden 15)

[ManiacMatt1782]

Nope. Because if they have any sense, they will change that rule this offseason!

OR AT LEAST GET CONSISTANT

If at 1:45 highlight is ruled a fumble, then Dez was certainly down inside the 1 yard line!

Huge difference. The Bengal remained standing and made a move to the endzone. Dez altered his body on the way down but never came down standing.

YES - This should implement this rule in the game as long as it is a real rule in the NFL.

We play sport video games to simulate the real game.

EA can not get penalties right, you expect them to implement this rule correctly #nochance

absolutley not. It's a dumb rule that shouldn't be in the NFL at all. Much less Madden. Lets try and get holding, false starts, offsides, and pass interference right first. lol

This game doesn't even have the basics down, and we're asking if they should include complex rule such as the Calvin Johnson rule? Madden doesn't have proper physics or enough animations. It's ridiculous that at this point, they haven't nailed those things, but that's what they need to work on before adding a rule that may be done away with here shortly by the league.

There is nothing that complex about it other than people trying to throw their own inaccurate interpretations of it in there because of other rules. To be honest there aren't nearly enough plays where the receiver is going to the ground upon catching the ball in Madden for this to ever come into play anyway. And it is already in if the ball does happen to come out on a bang bang hit. If the ball comes out at all on the way down when he gets hit before coming down with the ball, it's incomplete. So it is kind of already in the game. There just aren't nearly enough situation in the games very limited animation system for it to ever come into play.

This and it was miscalled, Dez not only took 3 steps, but made a football move to try to put the ball in the end zone (which he did)

Should it be in? Sure, as long as it's an NFL rule.

Are there other things I'd rather see EA add to the game first? Absolutely.

Makes sense to add as what is basically a variation on a drop animation.

No I dnt like this made up rule to give a win to the home team that paided for a win. Because it's a catch all day.

It shouldn't be in the game, or the actual NFL.

It wasn't a catch, get over it. And wtf is 'paided'? smh

Re: Should the Calvin Johnson Rule Be 'In The Game' (Madden 15)

I think that if we are aiming for a realistic simulation then it should be in the game.

There are so many other things that need to be fixed before they even think about this.

However, I wont be shocked to see it become a heavily pimped feature.
