It's things like this that make myself and others wonder WTF goes on down at Tiburon. This could just be a condition of bad coding tethering receivers to the ball/pass, that can't be "fixed" this console gen, if so, I wish they would just say that. One of my peeves is hearing people that go down to Tiburon talking about how NOW they understand why Madden has been what it has but they can't tell us. Not peeved with those gamers that get to see "behind the curtain" but with EA Tiburon for not just coming out to tell everyone. I honestly don't think that info would change much, most people would likely feel the same way about the game as they do now, some, like me, would actually STFU and either play the game for what it is or move on. Then again maybe that's exactly what EA Tiburon doesn't want and would rather have Madden continued to be "honored by critics". smh

Who knows, anyway back on topic, what did you guys like/dislike about what Shopmaster and MS06 had to say about their hands on impressions with M25?

Here's a nice video showing a real life example of what contextual awareness may look like for a LB in Madden 25. Watch at :05 when Clay Matthews briefly puts his hand on Cullen Jenkins back as he moves around him to get the sack.

Taken from OP "MadScientist06 said LBs no longer get stuck at the line, "stuck in the wash" and will "swim" around the lineman, get out of the way and move across the line, put their hands on players, as they make their way to make the tackle or sack."

"Players sense things and move around them with contextual awareness on both sides of the ball."
