I wonder if the Psychic defense will still be there?

You know what I mean? Like when you call a run out of a 4 WR set and the defense decides to mysteriously come out in a 4-3. Then when you audible to pass without changing formations, the ai defense audibles to nickel or dime. Hmmmmm

They said that was one of the areas they worked a lot on so hopefully not.

They worked on the play calling or the player psychic ability? I thought I read the LBs were toned down (which made me sell my copy last year being a wco type player) but I didn't read anything on the actual defensive play calling..

Yeah that was pretty bad. Hopefully its fixed.

Someone asked your question in some interview i read and they said that the teams should come out to defend what the apparent play is and not act all psychic basically.

This is one area where my skepticism will remain very high until I actually see it for myself.

I've always felt that this problem was fundamentally tied into the way they code the CPU's defensive A.I./playcalling/decision making, and not easy to fix or purposely left that way so as to give the CPU a fighting chance so to speak.

So we'll see if they've really changed it.

Which will be refreshing.

I hope so. I've always hated the Belichick-esque tendencies of the CPU.
