Re: Hitch Step: Is it just me, or is there no hitch step in Madden?

Watch this and you will see a few hitch steps:

(at 1:40 you'll see what I mean about hitch steps telling you to look for the dump off. After about his second hitch, his dump off leaked out into the flat, open, but Hasselbeck just ignored him and took a sack)


From what I see, the QB in Madden just drops back and then just kind of waddles, rather than dropping back and then hitching forward like a real QB.

Why is this?

Am I the only one who wants hitch steps in the game?
That video also shows how the "fight for the fumble" should be.
