Science of Brady

[MAHAM]

There was a book written called 'How We Decide' that uses Tom Brady as an example. I dont like Brady, but he is great at making quick decisions.

It also helps me understand why people like slow speed when they play Madden.

Quote:

The first example is very informative, the power of implicit, reflexive, and intuitive thought is illustrated through the ability of the New England Patriots' quarterback Tom Brady to select an open wide receiver in a matter of seconds. Brady's genius is not in his ability to reflect and process on a conscious level, rather, it is his sharpness of reflexive instinct. A dichotomy between the encapsulated reflexive cognition and reflective conscious thought is common sense. http://scienceblogs.com/gnxp/2009/05...happens_in.php

The NFL is a fast game. Too many times Ive heard on this forum that throwing windows are too fast, and that some of you want more time. Thats how the NFL is though, why complain about something thats realistic? Why not just appreciate it?

Now we have slow speed for online games and its being passed off as being more sim. The reality is that SLOW is just easier to play. Some of you may like that, but Its not what we see on Sundays.

After playing on SLOW, then trying to do some Calculus, my mind explodes.

Slow may have realistic animations, but yeah it makes decision making Far far too easy.

That's kind of the point tho, isn't it? If everyone had more time, maybe everyone could do what Tom Brady does lol

The AI seems to be a little better on Slow, and thats a good thing, but when throwing the ball theres too much time to make reads. I just wish there was more balance.
