Madden NFL 10 Blog - Improvements to QB Position

[Madwolf]

This really got me excited Ian. I mean, really excited.

My only suggestion at this point would be to make the RBs have an impact on the QB's PA rating. For instance, a great RB would improve the rating slightly, where as a terrible running back would decrease the rating.

It could also be effected by the success of your run game as well.

Jaysus Cutler has to have a mid 90s throwing on the run rating. He throws lasers at all times, with some damn fine accuracy. Anyone remember those lasers to Eddie Royal and Tony Scheffler against the Raiders that first week? Cutler can't be left out of the elite when it comes to throwing on the run.

I now officially have one of my Madden Wishlist features in the game:

Every QB will take some sort of accuracy hit when throwing on the run, but a QB that has a high rating here will take a smaller hit. 5. Play Action: Determines the 'effectiveness' of Play Action for a QB, i.e. how often they can fake out or freeze the defense (which is obviously weighted against the defenders Play Recognition ratings)

use this new system for juking,trucking,stiff arm,etc while a defender is tackling you mid animation.

Hopefully next week the defense will get some love.

i saw that but i guess its just such a big deal to me i was expecting a little more clarification or something more definitive. i'm not trying to be too picky or anything but i believe that the QB scrambling in madden goes against one of the core themes of real life football. i wish i had the statistics of the all the snaps taken in a given season and what % of the time the QB scrambled. i'm guessing its surprisinly small compared to how it is in the game.

all in all i think this was a superb post by ian and great news for the game going forward.

I agree.. Jay Cutler's throw on the run gotta be high.. But i gotta agree, this is the best update to date. Game changer...Madden 10 is gonna be rock solid. Can't wait for more updates..
Thanks Ian and Co..
