Maybe I'm just doing it all wrong, but nothing I've seen so far has me convinced that it is possible to use left/right directional throwing effectively. Maybe it works better if you use guys like Brady or Manning, but for the high 80s/low 90s S/MAC QBs I use in my franchises, it's simply suicide to use that left stick.
Your probably leading the WR too much.. Its real tricky with the accuracy on all-madden. You have to point the stick more towards the WR instead of pointing it too far out because it will sail on you like that. You have to really point it to the spot where you want the ball placed.. I try to place it to the point where the WR almost has to slow up for the ball.
