That doesn't even begin to touch on guys like Haskins, McCoy, Keenum, Manning, Jones, Fitzpattrick, Rosen, etc. who all are fighting for a starting QB jobs. So all of them must have the fast animation as well. That's ridiculous lol. Is Foles' delivery THAT much slower than the other 35+ QBs that they are labeling as potential starters?

Lol. Well, foles does have an extremely ‘deliberate’ windup that is a bit slower than almost all QBs I’ve seen in the past few years. So, it may actually be fair to say that. Had a helluva super bowl, though. And, that’s not to say he’s a bad qb, but he does have a slow elongated delivery. He’s a bit lanky, in general.

Tony Bruno was great. Also holdouts, player morale, full stat tracking, etc.

Yeah, Foles is certainly “lanky.” They don’t call him BDN for nothing.

That is where anything can be subjective to different people.

I wasn't into and still not into stat tracking. Agree with the player morale part, but I've been a button presser all the time with presentation type elements of the game if I can including Bruno.

I enjoy getting into the games more than the backend stuff and just don't have the time to spend on it, but realize others enjoy both, have the time to spend on it and respect that.

I loved the idea of the Bruno show, but I think it was just that I didnt like Bruno. Lol. I can’t remember if it was his voice, what he said, how he said it, or all of the above. But, I distinctly remember being interested in the idea of a radio show, listening to it a few times, and then turning it off completely because I just could not listen to that man anymore! Lol.

But, really, even in today’s social media world, a radio show would be an excellent addition for the simple fact that it can play in the background while you’re scrolling through menus, updating contracts, looking at stats, etc. Some people have said they don’t want a weekly wrap up show because they wouldn’t watch it. From ea’s perspective, a weekly wrapup would take time and resources to get right. A radio show is simply audio in the background. This is not hard from a design standpoint. They already do plenty of audio from Gaudin and Davis throughout the year, why not try another radio program, or call it a ‘podcast’ to be up on the times. Hopefully, get someone better than Bruno, lol, and simply have it playing in the background while in CFM. He can talk about current stat leaders in your CFM, current playoff chances for teams, who’s hot and who’s not type of thing. Upcoming draft choices. He can talk about heisman hopefuls. Geez, the more I talk about his, the more I want this. Lol. And, honestly, from a design standpoint, this shouldn’t be that difficult. They would have to allocate resources to create it and then record voice tracks similar to Gaudin and Davis.

But, yeah, again, for the record, Bruno was AWFUL! Lol.

The Good Morning Football guys would be great, and probably not as expensive as Shannon Sharpe and Skip Bayless and the like.

lol first off, careful what you're googling. Secondly, I totally get that. He is slow, but I think it's crazy how they chose to differentiate between Qb's and the best they came up with was:

• Tier 1 - 1 QB
• Tier 2 - 34+ QB's
• Tier 3 - 1 QB

Like what's the point of differentiating if basically everyone is the exact same? How is that worth the effort?
