Yes, but this business of a QB running the other way...that is not the CPU...maybe some cheeser you are playing lol! The CPU does complete alot of passes...but not in that fashion!

That was just one of the things i mentioned. Doesn't happen as much as the other things but I see this happen a lot on screen plays when you blitz the screen side. A CPU qb with low awareness will run away from the blitz, no more than 8-10 yards, and while he's (CPU) running throw it to the running back or a WR on a curl route in front of the running back.

Running one way, spins and throws, landing it on the button.

You must have gotten a better copy than me.

I 've got the same copy as you LOL! I have only seen an occasional failure on the part of the CPU to take a sack because they pulled of some crazy pass. I don't see it as often as some people claim it happens

Foremost: Madden NFL 09 is indeed a fine game, a definite step in the right direction for the series, and a viable base to build upon for Madden 2010.

Second: I've no problem with a quarterback beating a jailbreak blitz by throwing to a hot receiver after a quick drop. However, it's the picture-perfect fade-away passes over blitzes by Ryan Fitzpatrick that tick me off.

In general, the game needs more unexciting inaccurate throws, and the AI needs to take a sack every once in a while.
