So how feasible it is I am not so sure compared to how much effort they might go through to getting their faces in the game and then to show off their implementation.

lol, this is exactly what I was thinking. Oh well, I guess it's something, right? A good question would be, now that the coaches look like themselves, will they actually coach like themselves? hmm, I guess we'll find out later. Still, I guess it's a nice lil bit of info.

Yeah, I'd take improved playcalling, even if it meant having no coach on the sideline. But that's not how it works, and probably isn't what the masses would prefer.

Does this include all of the coaches like the assistant coaches and coordinators? If so, this solidifies that early thread claiming that they would be in. I wonder if the Madden team finally found a way to get interactive sidelines in. I hope something is done to keep the presentation fresh.

Weren't coaches already in the game? I played as Dallas and am pretty sure I remember seeing Wade on the sidelines

Yep. I guess he'll be more Wade-like now.

Yeah, that's like last year when they made a big deal about the Thunderbirds in the flyover cutscene, yet they fly by so fast you can't make out any detail at all.

I realize jets fly fast, so don't get me wrong. To clarify, if I remember correctly, they spent a whole blog entry on how they spent a long time making sure to make the Thunderbirds look authentic, when you can't even make them out in the game.
