Clint and I talk about this all the time. Tuning is underway to deliver exactly this.

Rex please spread ratings out please please gameplay is so much better . In years pass why get the Texans JJ Watt ? He don't feel elite ? The gap to small from Watt and the avg offence linemen ! I hope we go the FIFA route in player ratings!

Good stuff EA! Just by reading this blog, you can tell these devs really know their football & are passionate about it. Love these additions. This should really give us that chess match that sim football gamers have been waiting for.

Man, if this stuff is as advertised or close I hope the CFM team brings it this hard as well. We still have more gameplay blogs left and I hope once that CFM one drops I have this same feeling.

Is there a mechanism in play that "mandates" such defensive players such as Watt, Sue, Miller, Mack etc... be blocked by more than one player?

I believe this is that "special ingredient" that's missing with the player differentiation everyone is looking for during their gameplay experience.

Whether controlled by the AI or Hum player, these type of players don't force gamers to have to account for them

Even better is the AI having awareness to match its best DL/LB's against the weak areas of an OL and attack it to force the gamer to altar/change their gameplan.

Really making these type of guys special and hard to come by (unless you choose the team they're already on) would really add to all areas of the game.

This is too much sim for casuals...and even sim heads who are gonna be usering top flight athletes are now really going to have know their assignments and responsibilities...let the true essence of chess in football begin...

There player should kill one on one VS avg players ! These player should command a double team or get rid of the ball fast !

This is just the beginning. Just wait until the zone blog drops!

Rex, thanks for stopping by. This is some really good stuff. I didn't play football past high school but I remember all these terms and identifying strong side first. This is very exciting.

This sounds good. Will need to see videos, though to really gauge what all 22 players are doing to see if the words translate to actual gameplay. I also really really want to see DE lineman play improved and for users to get consistent sacks with their front four without having to blitz.

I just hope this means users of LB and safety have to play their responsibilities and can't play sideline to sideline with any level players
