Anyone who doesn't like the prospect of 9-player gang tackle is crazy

^^^ I actually squeezed in about 40 games and I can honestly say that I very rarely seen big gang tackle groups. I saw a 5-man tackle one time. Other times I saw a 2 or 3.

Saw Fight For The Fumble like 6 times.

My only problem is that the defenders tackle way too high. They should be going for the gut and the legs more.

Yeah once 9 players are bunched up in there there better not be no zombies walking around out there. I wonder how this will play out. The gang tackles sounds good and we've had a glimpse of it, but i'm going to wait until I see more to pass judgement on it.

Yeah, lol. Of course I did Super Sim some and play on less than 5 minute quarters for quite a few games in order to do that, but I made sure to put myself in as many situations as I could to test the frequency of all sort of things with these things being at the top of the list.

Overall, I was satisfied with the outcomes.

Can you comment on how the gang tackles look? Do you see a good variety of high and low tackles? Can you hit stick into a gang tackle? Last one! Can players go for the strip in gang tackles?

Watcher approves of fight for the fumble...sounds encouraging
