I never really thought of Brady Quinn as being a mobile QB but thats just me.

I see they didn't fix the lions' socks...they are completely blue again this year.

Thanks for the link.

I thought they were supposed to have improved the offensive and defensive line interaction animations this year? On pass plays, it looks to me like they still stand in one place holding each other, until one or the other gets flipped on his back like a turtle. I wish no one would have ever told EA/Tiburon about pancake blocks because they look so stupid in their game, IMO.

If NCAA 08 (been playing the last couple of days) and these Madden vids are any indication, it's going to be another year of dealing with the poor DL/OL interaction on pass plays.

This engine that included suction blocking is just horrible. And I'm amazed that Tiburon/EA carried these sorry interactions over to NextGEN. It takes so much away from both Madden and NCAA from a gameplay perspective.

And now it's to the point where it just looks and feels so ridiculous, every time you play either game.

Why is brady quinn faster than Jamarcus Russle. I never thought of him being that fast. He should have som decent speed but him being 77 speed puts him in an elite QB category for speed i think that should be switched around.
