One thing that is MUCH improved over previous years is the outside run blocking - as long as you're not sprinting as soon as you get the ball. When you run to the outside, your blockers stay ahead and engage the defense like they should. After they engage, then it's time to jam on the x button (PS2) and turn the corner. I've broken off a few long runs like this with Julius Jones so far.
If anything, it seems to me that the run blocking might be a little too
good on default - too much of that dreaded "P" word that everyone hates talking about.
