Now that would be poetic justice...

playing now with Reggie, and letting the gameflow plays dictate what i do, its been more varied with runs and passes, plus im the starting PR/KR, i got about 900 yards rushing and 200 receiving(and thats with missing a few catches or Romo throwing to someone else, shoulda had more than just 1 TDs caught =\)
Typical Romo, has a 1200 yard per game all purpose back and he dares to throw to another player.

Almost certainly a data storage limitation, 1024 is exactly 1 KB. Doesn't go to 1024 because 0 is a value. Just a guess. I'd expect many other game stats to be limited in the same way.

Re: 1023 RB yards in game still capped...

just googled this issue and theres a site that has info from back in Madden 07 and it says, along with a 1023 cap, theres a cap for 8191 total receiving/rushing yards for any 1 player in a single season

does anyone know if that cap still exists too

Re: 1023 RB yards in game still capped...

This thread reminds me of the time I did the same thing intentionally on Gamebreaker to expose how much of a joke that football game was. I was being an EA fanboy at the time. So, I took Darnell Autry of Northwestern at the time and I would start my drive on my own goal line and he would use his SUPER POWERS and bust 100 yard TD runs to the tune of 1,000 yards and 10+ TD's in a single game.

did you purposely call fair catches on KR/PR or run backwards and dive outta bounds inside the 5 too?

i hate how they still make it impossible to manually reposition your guy during a PR if its over his head 15yd to goaline and even if you do get him inside the circle he muffs it or misses it completely and its not like i can "catch" it cause Y calls for fair catch =\
