[Pro Bowler]

At first i was really impressed because of the slower speed, but that wore off pretty quick and it kinda reminds me as being more of the same. Here are a few problems i noticed.

-I'm getting the same grab and roll tackle a lot. There are some new animations that look good though.

-Just doesn't feel like i have much input when controlling the players. It just feels like the plays are mostly determined by the CPU and not user control. Now star players are able to put some moves together, and that's realistic, but even then it's more like the the CPU decides if you're going to be successfull with a juke rather than me controlling the juke and making the play.

-There are some BS passes that get completed when the receiver is double teamed. It's almost like the same poor pass coverage that plagued the series in last gen at times.

-It's way too easy to pass. I know we're using 2 of the better QB's, but receivers seem to get open way too often after their break and it seems too easy threading a zone. I believe a large part of the problem is the ball speed is too fast. Another problem when passing is there isn't nearly enough touch you can put on passes.

-The commentary is good as far as sound goes, but it just doesn't feel like a real football broadcast.

It's a good game for the most part X and O wise with some neat strategy decisions to make and the player lock is cool, but i feel more like i'm watching a movie rather than controlling the outcome during a play.
