Nice little pocket to throw from. All the linemen are engaged too.

Why is it so difficult to program defensive lineman to rush around the offensive lineman to target the quarterbacks? I see the same classic defensive lineman running directly into the offensive lineman unfortunately, analogous to a heat seeking missile. It's as if there is a magnetic force that draws the two together with the quarterback being an afterthought.

That's funny...I completely agree with your examples. Seems like a scripted path with no real "bat out of hell" focus to get to the qb by any means b possible. I feel the same about wr/te/and hb that RAC.

They obviously weren't kidding about the improved zone play. I know a lot of people were skeptical about it, but I think this video shows it works.

A couple slowed down GIFs from the video.

That coverage was tight , and the linemen slid nice with the DE ! And we're talking about clipping ?( In my AI Voice) clipping ?

Yep, when they can program the defenders to play with that refuse to stay blocked, hair on fire, get to the QB at all cost "mentality", that will be the biggest game changer on defense.

User QB's need to be sped up in their decision making a lot more, especially with the bird's eye camera view.

Pass Coverage look so good in one clip tho ! But I Can't wait to see a great def play ! I'm thinking a great defence can dominate now ! Will this be like madden 2005 with Ray Lewis on the cover !BTW just getting excited and having fun at guessing we don't know how it turns out yet ! image.jpeg
