I'm looking at this as a sort of reverse barometer. As I see it, the fact that they aren't happy with the increased difficulty of the passing game means that sim fans will be probably pleased.

Or am I just rationalizing?

For a Cowboys fan, that sounds like a pretty rational theory. I find myself agreeing with it.

they said the passes are alot slower and floatier this year. I dont know about you, but i loved how fast the passes flied in the previous years madden. They seemed to be going faster every version since 2001.

it may also be because they arent throwing in their vision.. or trying to lead passes that are in the wrong context to the players movement...also they are mostly showing deep passes to let u see the play develop..

the game is zoomed back further.. so of course the passes will be a lil slower.. its like a driving game,, in the car is fast.. behind the car everything is a lil slower

your POV

i wont mind slower passses this year IF ITS IMPLEMENTED PROPERLY...i cant begin to tell you guys how many games i gave up huge passing yards to backup qb's with medoicre wr's....it dosent bother me when playing against a new england philly or minnesota......but i was getting scorched by bad teams...in that event those teams should only be effective for the most part with the short to intermediate passing game..with only rare big plays to more effectivlely represent the ACTUALL team

Yeah, I couldn't agree more. I mean, come on! The dude spent an entire paragraph complaining that he couldn't throw the ball deep with any regularity. How often do REAL NFL teams throw the ball deep? Not as often as you'd think...

Yeah, after putting my "Madden Cheeser Speak" filter on that webpage, from the sounds of it, all the things I hated about Madden 2005 have been fixed for Madden 2006. We shall see...
