Ian please fix the returning game and make it real life.

To return a kick or punt for a TD in Madden, you have to break at least 2-3 tackles.

In real life, guys break 0-1 tackles to get a TD. It's mostly about blocking.

In Madden's return game, the blocking is horrible. They block the guy for 1-2 seconds and let him go and run to the top of the field blocking no one while we have 10 guys running at us unblocked. There's so many times I see a wide open hole and hit it only to be tackled by someone that's being blocked.

A 240 pound man whose being blocked shouldn't be able to tackle DeSean Jackson/Santana Moss/Devin Hester from the back being 5 yards away.

We need a realistic return game, along with a realistic kicking game. Special teams is a very important part of the game.

Look at this:

Barely do you see them breaking 4 tackles, doing spin moves or juking all over the place.

You see them catch the ball, hit the hole quickly and accelerate past everyone while MAYBE breaking one tackle and that's someone that hits their ankle.

improved blocking = improved return game

Not necessarily, if they just make it the same blocking as the one in the running game, you'll still have to make 3-4 broken tackles to get a TD.

They need to make it so that the blockers block and when they knock someone down, they continue to block instead of just stand there and watch you get tackled.

This definitely need A LOT of improvement.

It isn't even close to realistic both on kick and especially on punts.
