Will this update allow me to use updated rosters in online franchise?

Good question, I hope so.

Has Coach Mode been fixed so that you cannot control any player after the snap (kickers, defenders, etc)--a true coach mode, not "control anyone but the QB mode"??

No, this was never mentioned in the information on ea's website regarding the 2nd patch, I hope that they will include a true coach mode in madden 11.

Has anybody noticed a change in long runs??? Does the RB still start to slow down in the open field.

I know that they (EA team) mentioned in their blog about the quarterback holding on to the ball and taking a sack, I hope at least their will be more blindside sacks otherwise I am stoked about the new Patch.

Yea, there are some issues with clock management with the AI. I've seen some passing plays ran when they should be running or kneeling the ball.

Yeah Rgiles, this has been a problem with EA's [maybe 2K as well] football games since...well, forever.

When you do have franchise games come down to the last few minutes, it's pretty frustrating to see the AI turn idiotic. Hopefully soon, EA will give the late game AI decision making, the attention it needs.

I wonder if this patch is going to address Fatigue in SuperSim.

Whenever I SuperSim my Defense, not matter how long my offense stays on the bench - they come back onto the field fatigued.

It's like Fatigue isn't recharging while SuperSimming.

Hope they got this one!

I think it is a real good chance that it shows up this week i beleive they would not post the 2nd update of the blog unless it has been approved by MS/Sony. But this is just speculation i would really like the patch soon as im waiting to start my chise. But been playing online which has been good as well

I would like to think it would drop this week but it is entirely up to MS/Sony

Maroney burned my entire defense so if they runners are slowing down on long runs, he sure didn't...Even Ed Reed didn't catch him.

Maybe he missed the memo. Or the rules don't apply to Pats players

Re: Madden NFL 10 2nd Title Update Details

In coach mode, I also went up against Lewis last night. I'm using sliders from here(Bill Harris) and Lewis was gaining 7yds/attempt and over 100 yds @half. I started using more pinch plays in the second half and more engage 8's. They stuck with the run and I started to shut it down. Finally, I pulled ahead and they had to pass the rest of the game.

They were down by two with less than a minute left and all their timeouts. They started running the ball and calling timeouts. I stopped them on 4th down and they turned the ball over with 18 seconds left. Weird. Game over.

Yeah, they like to run at the weirdest times sometimes.

Interesting that you also face Lewis and they stuck with him in your game too.

Maybe it's based on players. I might need to set up a game against AP and see if they stick with him, or at least give him 18-20 carries when the game is done.

I think its progressive fatigue. To be sure we would need to know how many touches that player had, when the run occured and what settings, etc.

I just played the Vikes in GB. What a great game. Favre chucked it deep once and Woodson knocked it loose.

These rosters are like from the early part of the season. Favre is only rated 2 stars. He threw two picks. One was a pick 6, but Collins was so far ahead of everyone else, no one was going to catch him. The other pick Woodson returned 5 yds deep in the end zone to the 18.

AD ran all over the place. He would start in the middle and bounce it out wide. He had over 100 yds in the first qtr. He ended up with over 200 yds rushing and rushed for 8.5 yds per carry. So, yeah, they stayed with him for close to 25 carries.

The last two games in coach mode, in close games, the CPU hasn't given up the run.

Vikes lead by 3 with 3:25 left and I ran no huddles and marched down the field to score with about 36 seconds left. 1st play Favre finds AD over the middle, but AD fumbles the ball away.

I thought all I had to do was kneel 4 times. Wrong. They had all the TO's left and got the ball back with 1 second left. Last play, Favre completed a 12 yd pass, game over.

Wow, what a game!

Nice to see that star players will get their carries at least sometimes.
