this is the one thing that hangs me up sometimes... I wont think about that initial button press, so When I try to do a Hot Route for Defense I will do a coverage shift on accident.

I am still not a pro at the strategy pad. But the Old way.... Like many others I am looking forward to moving back to it...

Used to hate it, but I've gotten the hang of it. I'm indifferent.

Reading on a few different boards it sounds like XBox people like it but alot of PS3 people would rather use the D-Pad vs the left stick.

I have the same issue!

i understand the concept, but why not make it an option and have the old controls back for people who have been playing madden for years. i understand it will be patched in but for now, im stuck w/ this stupid pad where i can make maybe 2 adjustments per down on defense
