Ya, the pursuit angles are horrid. You don't notice it at first. Just take a fast guy and do an alligator run and no one will ever catch you. The players only run in about 10 directions. Its funny to watch a replay and see the defense players zig zag into the same angular pursuit. NCAA 10 is much better in pursuit and it makes that game a million times better even though the physics are rotten on NCAA 10. Madden 10 and NCAA 09 are no comparison. It is no even close.
