I would ask them how much of an influence the NFL has on the end product. Madden has had a lack of penalties, even with sliders maxed, for as long as I can remember. Is this just an oversight, a Madden dev team decision, or is it actually the NFL dictating to the dev team that they don't want penalties mucking up the game?

Clearly they have some sway as even things like late hit out of bounds penalties have been taken out of the game.
