Been playing Madden forever but this is my first purchase in a few years. Was hoping the "pass accuracy matters" comment would be true to its word.
Ive set up on all-pro using some sliders I found on here with CPU Accuracy at 4. Eli Manning just completed 22 straight passes before I turned the game off. Started a new game and same thing was happening?
Is this the norm?

Also..Had zero penalties, zero sacks, zero turnovers.

Does EA actually play the game before releasing. Seems my slider set (when i settle on one) is so far away from their default.

Yeah noticed this too..

I've had QBs have good games and bad games, definitely no 22 completions in a row. I moved QB Accuracy (10) and WR catch down some (35) which helps give you some missed throws and some drops. Also seems that the confidence feature kicks in when throws start missing as it seems that they will start missing more and more.

I assume you know this but worth mentioning - switch up your defenses, blitz someone one almost every passing down. Bring them from different directions. I found that if you sit in a zone and don't get pressure they will find someone every time, just like in real life.

I think he means CPU. Cause i'm finding CPU is doing this time and time again.

Yes, I was talking about playing the CPU as well. I wasn't clear, I knew what I meant.

thanks..ive fiddled with the sliders and Bortles threw up realistic numbers. 17-28 190ish...Think I had my pass defense too low and lowering the drops helped.

Now if I could just find a good penalty set Id be fine.

as the eagles I beat the Jags 24-12 with Barkley at QB..My stats were pretty well on for the Eagles other than Thornton getting 4 sacks.

Played the game for the first time in two years. Started a franchise thing with the 49ers. Romo completed 14 passes in a row before an incompletion which was because he spiked the ball.

This has also happened to me.

Very few sacks, penaltys, very few turnovers and the CPU QB unstoppable.

And several CPU big plays passing or running the ball.
