One thing Madden needs to do.
Switch from this ROLB/LOLB garbage.
And switch to Strongside/Weakside.

It's really silly when the Offense flips formation and the TE is on the left, and the LOLB (who are the stronger players, even in Madden, even in new drafts) stay on the opposite side.

It's all about the Sam and Will.
You got it, Madden really needs to implement this. A lot of teams switch their DEs to the strong and weak side too.
