CPU Doesn’t run the ball

[Urban Legend 72]

After getting shredded by good running teams in CFB 25 I noticed the CPU barely runs in Madden 25. CPU runs less than 10 times a game even with good running backs. This causes the CPU quarterback to throw way too much. Anyone else seeing this?

Yes, but check my pass/run Thread. Plenty of conversation on the board around this

Interesting. I didn’t have the problem last year. I’ll check out the thread.

They have no reason to. The pass defense is incredibly broken. EA has yet to even hint at fixing it either. Total joke again.
