I just elaborated - see my edit. From the start of the play until the end of the play - not just the last ten seconds or so like in the demo.

Yes. How else did I record my replay and upload it to YouTube for you guys? lol.

I didn't see any photo option.

While playing the demo on numerous occasions you would see your OL not blocking, getting in the way, running in circles and pretty much not blocking ANYONE. Is it better in the retail or are you still seeing it happen?

It depends on the OL. You guys are obviously expecting every OL to play amazing and perfect. The problem is, a lot of OL in the league do suck and the game reflects that. When I run to the right side of the line as the Eagles, the fact I have both Andrews there dominating, it's a lot easier.

In fact, I broke off a 50+ yard run with LeSean McCoy because of the OL blocks from the right side. Andrews (RT) pancaked his guy and moved out to block a LB, allowing for McCoy to own the outside completely.

I don't think we are expecting every OL to play amazing. I think it's more of atleast get a hat on a hat. Don't run in circles when all you had to do was block the man infront of you. That sort of thing is what we are asking.

I know not every OL is the same, trust me I'm a Jets fan I know we have a better chance of running behind Da'Brickashaw, Fenaca and Mangold than the other. But, I don't think that making them run in circles is best way to show how bad they are. JMO but, that's not in the game.

I don't care how bad Damien Woody (RG) is, he's not going to play ole still or run in circles.
