This really has to be the worst ever football game. So dumb. Passing is a joke, whether it be your QB throws 10 feet above your WR head, or your WR dropping everything, or the CPU hitting it's reciever streaking down the sideline all day long.

I've upped my sliders to 99%accuracy and 99% catch and nothing changes. My last game Oregon (me) vs. Houston, my QB was 5-27 5 INTs, 2 TDs and my recievers had 9 drops.

Of course they had a reciever who had like 8 catches for 262 yards and 3 TDs.

My running back of course had like 24 carries for 164 yards.

Game stinks. Hopefully Madden is better. And before anyone quips back that "I don't have to play it," I'm already aware.

Sounds like user error to me. I've had much more success with passing this year. I'm playing on AA with tweaked sliders in the CPU's favor and am completing about 50-60% of my passes each game. On lower difficulty levels, I was getting even higher completion percentages. And 24 carries for 164 is not that out of whack. It's a little high in terms of average yds per carry (one long run can account for that), but not outrageous.

Sorry you're not enjoying though.

i dont see where you are coming from. try playmakers sliders. i thought the same too until i found a slider set that works best. ncaa > madden.

I've never had a high percentage passing, because I take too many chances. But, from what I do see, it's a heck of a lot more realistic, especially the short to mid-range passing game.......dig patterns and crossers are sweet when run right and you lob it just over a LB and under the FS

I think you are a piss poor player.

YOu do know that you're sposed to throw to people on your team.
Sounds like the other team wasn't expecting the ball to come their way as much 5-27 (5 ints) ... That's why they're cornerbacks.

Exactly! You just plain suck at the game.

I don't play it very often, so in the scheme of things I'm probably not very good, but I didn't have the same problem last year. Game still sucks.
