The problem is that as long as Madden sells, it will stay as is. And you can take that to the bank.

In Madden 10 I can take a rookie QB and win the superbowl. Rookie QBs are the worst defensive readers in the game. They barely look past their first read and have a lot of trouble if he is not open. If you have sports illustrated read the article with Palmer, Roethlisberger, Ryan, Romo, and Rodgers talking about the hardest position in sports. Right now in Madden its not hard at all.

And for the person that says as long as Madden sells it wont change. Madden is not selling well right now. They need drastic changes this year.

lol. People have been spoiled by "God view" for way too long.

yeah there really needs to be a way to throw the ball at the receiver's feet or over their heads out of bounds on purpose. not only would this make things more realistic, but it force people to stay in the pocket, which is a good thing.

Microsoft's Project Natal would work perfect for this (assuming the camera actually works). It could track your head (allowing your head to control some version of the vision cone) without interfering with the controller controls. Playstation eye might be able to do the same thing.

only problem i see with that is when you move your head you would have to keep your eyes on the screen while moving your head and that would make it a little tricky to focus on one receiver, i think you'd need a massive tv screen that would surround you sort of like a flight simulator for it to work, or multiple monitors. and besides its by microsoft that would leave the ps3 out, and i dont think EA would make madden a exclusive to xbox because u cant offer one feature to one a console and not to the other, and im talking about next gen consoles not like the ps2 because i know things are left out in that game.

for xbox 360 i would like to see this kind of passing

lets say you want to hit wr Y so i tap my Y button then hit the right trigger to wind up my arm and i can keep taping the right trigger to keep pumping the arm once i decide to throw it

i hit Y if i want to throw it high A for low B if i am trying to have the ball go to the right and X if its to the left and tap for soft hold for hard if for some reason Y reciever eventually gets covered i can hit the right trigger to cancel everything out and find another reciever.
