To me these videos are embarrassing. The only redeeming thing about these videos is that they are trying to correct a fundamental football item that they have ignored for the and entire console generation. 2K football had a true pocket and nailed offensive and defense line play over a decade ago and EA needs a next gen console to make it respectable. That is a joke to me. The footwork is still not there and it seems like there is a bunch of sliding to make the line play look better.

It just looks like the defensive line play will be crap now since the offensive lineman are sliding into position to pick up blocks. I can bet that dominant nose tackles will not get a push when they are not double teamed and a single blocker will stop Vince Wilfork just because he slid in front of him. Wilfork will never be handled by one blocker but this system does not appear to respect a dominant bull rush. Nice try at smoke and mirror EA.
