Even bring into the fact of the play clock that winds down before you have to snap the ball so they would have to alter it for each different quarter length. Its too much work in comparison to just making time fly off the clock like a team is having to select a play. They needs this because currently its faster to pick a play then it is to go no huddle. IRL, a field goal team takes 10-15 seconds to get onto the field and all that but in madden it takes 1-2(guessing but I know its something that fast) This makes doing game winning drives like a walk in the park.

I think he means "game" clock instead of "play" clock. After reading the OP he describes the game clock for Fifa 09 and how even though he's playing 10 min halves the game still shows 45 mins. That's what I got out of it anyway.
