Okay people are very confused about this so I want people to realize what GameFlow and GamePlan mean.
GamePlan - Group of plays you will compile that CAN be used as a part of
GameFlow. This group of plays is displayed as "My
GamePlan" instead of Ask Madden on the playcall screen. They have completely removed "Ask Madden" from Madden NFL 2011.
[Weird that a game named after Madden has such little images of him and very little of his philosophies.. I doubt he likes how blocking works in this game.. probably would be his highest priority.] The exact plays that will show up in the "My
GamePlan" group will be taken from your plays setup on the
GamePlan screen for the CURRENT SITUATION. If it's 3rd and 3.. You'll have all your 3rd and 3 plays shown.. You'll be able to select from them..
GameFlow -
GameFlow uses the group of plays set by default or by your personal
GamePlan to call your plays. It will call plays for you, therefore skipping the playcall screen.. removing time wasted at the play call screen.. meaning shorter games. The
GameFlow feature will pick your plays based on how high you have certain plays rated for the current situation. You have no guarantee on what play will be called. Only that it is in the list of 15 you have set for that situation.

Thank you. 
Found it here for my very own eyes:
"Of course, one thing to be clear on is that everything is optional. If you want to play without GameFlow you can. You can choose to play with the conventional play call screen (old style play call screen that's been around since the advent of football gaming). You can choose to turn off coordinator audio, subtitles, and strategy pad. Pretty much everything is an option."
Looks like everyone can relax just like SB said in the final version. The awful strategy pad can be turned off.

You can't turn it off. The graphic is only able to be turned off.
"Why panic over a preplay button change, esp calling it 'clunky'? Y+UP is now UP+UP Does that seem clunkier? Give it a try."

"Why did we change to strategy pad? For usability. Too many inconsistent buttons before...people would get 'stuck' and they couldn't snap it."
-Ian Cummings via Twitter
"Strategy Pad has a steep learning curve. And in the demo, yes, the CPU snaps quickly, so it will be tough to adjust. Have patience."
