I am no expert at madden, but is there anyway I can make the game play a little bit more realistic then a 69 OVR DT running Jamaal Charles down and dropping him like a rock behind the line on a sweep? Thanks for any input!

On the defaults, defenders get a speed boost once the ball is outside the numbers. Maybe they are sprinting, maybe they are running too fast... But their pursuit angles are much better than they ever have been on Madden in the past. The speed + better angles will make it tough for even a Jamaal Charles to get out of the backfield.
