haha...yeah, John Madden has probably forgot more about todays game than anybody at EA/Tiburon even knows.
If anything Madden is explaining what coaching schemes/strategies are trending now. Didn't you read Madden's retired, he has more time to be a football fan now.
Since when does not having a recent NFL coaching job, and announcing for NFL games, keep a person from being qualified enough to help improve the Madden series? Especially, the Legend himself.....
