This is probably pretty controversial but after throwing another pick because I cannot get the ball to the receiver fast enough, I’m gonna say it anyways.
Throwing a bullet pass requires you to hold the button down (takes like .5 seconds) whereas a lob pass requires you to barely tap the button (takes like .1 seconds). This makes sense intuitively (press button harder, throw ball harder), but it also makes no sense mechanically. The reason it makes no sense mechanically is because it takes the longest input time to register a bullet pass in Madden and when you're throwing a bullet pass you need to deliver the ball as fast as possible. They should reverse the passing system and have bullet passes be passes where you tap the button and the amount of air under the pass depend on how long you hold the button. Bullet passes suck in Madden because it takes too long to deliver the ball to where it needs to go and because of that it isn't even going to the correct spot on the field.
This method would also make lob passes more intuitive. Currently it’s really difficult to throw lob passes because you have to release the button to quick. How many times have you not put enough air under the ball because you held the button down too long? I think holding the button down to put air under a pass would feel intuitive. You have to hold the button down a little longer to get the ball over a linebacker. Also it could introduce a skill gap to where you can put too much air under the ball on deep passes causing you to lose distance and a higher likelihood of throwing a pick.
For context on a 3 yard out route, the tight end will get about five steps in from the time I user input the ball to him with a bullet until he catches it. I’d argue the ball should get there in 1-2 steps
