No squib kick guys??

[IlluminatusUIUC]

I tried a low angle regular kickoff with zero power and my guy straight up shanked it OOB. I got lucky he knocked it far enough that it didn't immediately offer a FG try.

EA eliminating squib kicks from Madden playbooks is very disappointing. Squib kicks are still used in the NFL today and have been a Madden staple for years. I'd be willing to bet there are 4-5 squib kicks per week in the NFL and removing this feature does not make much sense. I'd love to hear EA's reasoning as to why this option was removed from this year's game.

I'm sure someone, somewhere figured out how to exploit it, but I agree, it makes no sense for the majority of players. It would be nice if it could be patched back it, but I would not hold my breath.

Exactly. They don't know how to implement it where it can't be used as a huge exploit. So they just remove it completely.

I know squibs were exploited online. Say you are expecting your opponent to kick an onsides kick, you come out in onside recover only to have him line up and squib kick it far enough where his guys get it before your guys can.

of course when something happens 'online they have to take it out. typical just shows they don't care about offline players we just get leftovers

Yea I had a couple of guys doing this in my CFM also last year, it was pretty cheesy I must say.
