A sideline reporter would be great IMO

Also I hope the injuries are done better this year since they have commentating. The way injuries occur and are reported is so unrealistic. Hell this is Madden tho, what is realistic?

Good points

In fact, I bet there is some language in the exclusive contract that might preclude any semblance of ESPN integration. I'm sure the league wants to push NFL Network integration at the expense of ESPN stuff.

Awesome addition! Maybe I'll actually play Madden... seems like we're getting some meat AND potatoes...

I hope they have enough content from them so that it doesn't get too repetitive. With it being the first year, I'm thinking there won't be much variety in what they say.

Fine. Whatever. As long as they're not the radio guy they're better.

Maybe they keep the radio guy and give us an option of what feature we want. Just moved him to the sideline. Personally, I hated it.
