    Is anything being done about the clock running when a player goes out of bounds?

    this has lost me more than a couple games and I'm just curious if anyone knows if they addressed this in the title update?

    Sorry if this has been answered already. I havent been around in awhile

    Same thing happened to me and cost me a game. Player went completely out of bounds and the clock kept running!

        Well don't forget the stupid NFL rule change a couple years back, where the clock doesn't stop just because a player goes out of bounds(just inside 2 minutes I think).

        Sorry if that's not what you're talking about though.

          Yeah i have seen several times where the clock continues to run after an incomplete pass. I threw the ball out of bounds one time late in the 4th quarter because there was no one open and time was running down and the clock continued to run after the play. I had zero time outs left and i could not get another play off in time and lost the game! I really am not sure why there has not been a thread stated about this til now. I have heard nothing about this being fixed so it looks like maybe we are just going to have to deal with it...

            With all the bugs it seems to me like a large number of them are going to slip through the cracks.

            Don't be surprised to see it in next year's madden as well.

              it is annoying and I usually keep a timeout on the table which sucks just in case.
              Gaming hard since 1988

              I have won like 25 Super Bowls in Madden so I am kinda a big deal.

                The clock does not stop when a player goes out of bounds unless it is the last 2 minutes of the first half, or the last 5 minutes of the game.

                    Also, if a player is hit in bounds and then is tackled out of bounds, he is considered to have been tackled in bounds and the clock should run.

                    I have played at least 50 games online and off and I have never had an issue with the clock running when it shouldn't have been.

                      The clock ran down on me one time after i called a timeout at the end of a half, more than frustrating.

                        Never had that happen but all the others described I've had. The most frustrating one is after an incomplete pass.

                          Yeah, the clock running after a incomplete pass needs to be fixed.

                            i agree when the clock runs down when u run out of bounds under 2 minutes left. wtf is that all about. makes u waste time outs or if u dont have any well ur screwed.
