I guess you can't go through a few months before a thread like this pops up. The answer is simple: EA has to do it this way because of NFL Properties. All 32 teams are protected by the NFL, and any change to the appearance of a team means that it is in violation of the agreement between EA and the NFL. That means that if you change the stadium, or add a new uniform, or do something that changes the identity of a club, it is in violation of this agreement. I rarely defend EA, but this is something that isn't their fault.
