Too bad that at least in Madden 09 holding down the sprint 100% of the time was the best way to run the ball. If they make it so that there is some actual visible benefit from not holding down the sprint 100% of the time then that's good and that should be their goal. If they can't do that, then get rid of the sprint button all together.
