3. Fix the 40 second playclock.
4. DL gameplay, it's just awful right now. There has to be a better way to disrupt the backfield.
5. Defensive awareness needs to be tightened up.
6. More dive, catch, and falling to the ground animations(like being tripped up)
7. Injuries should be like what madden has.
8. Ball physics, it spins the wrong way and on hard throws doesnt spin at all. On punts sometimes the ball just dies.
9. More effective sliders. Enough said here.

Other Things,

1. Formation subs a must.
2. Player models, try editing a WR. When you bring the weight under 200 the player model actually gets bigger instead of smaller.
3. We should always have the ability to edit attributes and height/weight during the season(except online dynasties). A lot of money was paid to enjoy this game and if a user wants to edit stuff then let us do it.
4. Recruiting, it's so unpredictable and needs to have more of a method. Should be able to assign how many minutes are spent on each topic when manually calling. OR JUST GO BACK TO THE OLD WAY from 2006.
5. Pre/post game presentation needs to be alot better. Steal from 2K please.

There are things that are good about this game, it's okay right now but is far from being great. These are just some of the things that can be done to make it better.

Thoughts?????

This is a great list.
I'd like to see Create A Playbook. Picking your own formations in the Old Gen was good to have. To mix things up and add a bit of realism, there should be fumbled snaps from center, even high snaps to a punter or kicker. The option game needs work, too. Everyone on here has already mentioned opponent AI and more realistic playcalling...that needs work.
