On the other hand, there's still no pocket forming, the tackle physics still look unconvincing, and the twenty yard drop is still there for all to see.
Stat overlays are very necessary. I would've never thought they were until we suffered through a year without them. There was nothing worse than having to hit pause everytime you wanted to know how a specific player was doing.

I'm also glad that they resized the players (or resized the field, whichever applies lol).

Lack of pocket and tackle animations are my biggest gripes with the video.

But, like one of guys just mentioned, at least they fixed the way the QB holds the ball.
