I doubt it will ever have it but it's so odd considering what Looman accomplished/started with HC09. I don't understand why fleshing out and refining successful features from past games seems to be forbidden in Madden, lol. It honestly seems like someone high up set a standard that if it can't be marketed as "new and innovating", it can't go in next-gen Madden. Again, I believe Looman is trying his best to appease everyone, given the pressures from both "suits" and hardcore football fans but it's not possible. I can't vouch for everyone at EA Tiburon but we have video game proof that Looman is capable of creating a realistic immersive team management system because he did it with HC09. CCM, at the moment, seems to be the "funning" up of NFL football for HC09 which we have seen repeatedly done in next-gen Madden.

I don't know exactly why nor do I even care anymore but it's beyond obvious that thus far EA Tiburon is not conducive for producing a solid NFL simulation video game. The culture just will not allow it and it reminds me of how many people see the US Congress. I think most people at EA Tiburon have all the best intentions in the world but the current situation, whatever is, can't produce a realistic NFL game. I don't understand why more people don't seem to believe that, especially in light of AJ's comments. He was a guy, that basically landed his dream job, working on THE NFL football game and quit from disgust and disappointment with not only the current product but also where he felt it was headed.
