One nice little surprise is that the comments almost never suck and often include helpful tidbits contributed by his viewers.

The number of people who want to play "real" football in competitive Madden is greater than you might think.

On the other-side of the ball, has anyone been able to get the bubble options to work? My receiver just gets stuck in the mud when I attempt it on offense.

I've had a little bit of success. You have to find the right timing where the receiver starts to turn upfield a bit before you throw it. If you throw it too soon, the WR stops completely

I've had better luck almost throwing it too late every time. Like you said, wait til he is headed more upfield. Every time I tried to fire it off quick, it just goes incomplete or he catches it and doesn't want to head in the right direction immediately. The route could probably be redone or at least polished up to where he is side strafing more and looking for the ball.

Defending RPOs is simple - run any cover 3 varient that has a your safety playing either a curl flat or flat route. Press if you'd like and pass commit.

User the run game (they get subpar blocking) and enjoy the INTs.
