Playmakers don't feel like Playmakers.

I was playing ultimate team with the Vick card from when he was on the cover, and i didn't feel like he was an explosive playmaker. I would try to avoid pressure and run away but he didn't seem that fast and that's with the speed threshold at 0. I feel guys like Vick, CJ, Jackson, etc.. should feel explosive and actually be game changers.

Re: Playmakers don't feel like Playmakers.

I 100% agree with this. Last year Jamaal Charles was my go to guy. If I needed a big play, I knew he could do something for me. In madden 12 he consistently gets caught by defensive linemen and linebackers on the outside for 3 yard rushes. I've broken maybe 4 30+ yard runs with him. Everyone on the field seems to be equally fast, strong, and agile.

I've broken off about 5 40 yard runs with Ryan Grant so I can only imagine what I'd be able to do with someone with elite speed.

There is something broken with pursuit. You can take a guy like Pryor or Vick and run parallel to the LOS and they get chased down by random DEs with speed ratings in the 70s. Same with RBs. Only after they get a 20 yard head start is where you start to see real separation.

That's because the last couple of year's Madden had a problem with speed. As soon as u hit the open hole or had a wide opening you were gone. Smh, I'm glad they addressed this issue.

I agree with this, but defensive lineman should not be catching 98 speed jamaal Charles from behind

If he gets u on an angle it's possible but I doubt he'll catch running vertical.

Even in the demo, Knox and Hester were getting run down by Matthews.
