I kind of agree but on the other hand: how satisfied with EA and 2k are we?
EA has been using pretty much the same "winning" football formula since 1998.
2k has been relegated to just using legends and generic dudes(which is my fav football game right now) but doesn't have franchise or any other bells and whistles that we come to expect.
So maybe a whole new group of people from a different company with a new engine and a new take on the game of football is what we need. I want to play a good, new game of football and not just a glorified roster update every year.
Just my 2 cents
