The team does consist of guys who worked on previous maddens, but a lot of them were not in the lead and therefore didn't have as much say as to what got in the game as they do now. Ian moved up and now he's lead designer (replacing David Ortiz). Phil use to work on the last gen madden games and Madden 10 will be the first time that he'll be given a full year to work on a current gen madden game (he started working on 09 real late). Also there's some new members to the Madden team working on franchise mode. They have worked with last gen madden games and left after that to work on the head coach games (Josh Looman and Donny Moore).

Although I already knew most of this, many people here were confused. I'm glad you cleared this up.
