I'm gonna speak mainly from an online perspective because I only play online ranked at the moment.....but the defense in this game is insane.

Later on I'm going to post a vid showing some defensive clips from my games and explaining them but at work right now so i can't atm. But I havent seen this much defense in the game since Madden 2005. I played a game against the Seahawks online and let me tell you, star DBs actually matter now.

The guy had Richard Sherman playing a flat zone(he was in a Cover 2) and i streaked my WR on that side. Sherman stayed in the flat but when I threw the streak, he jumped like 3ft to the side and snatched the ball right out of the air. I was shocked but impressed at the same time. I tried to throw the same kinds of passes I threw on current gen and the defense is just not having it. The DBs are really snagging balls now.

Also, the pass rush is crazy. If you blitz 6 you are guaranteed to get pressure. Really enjoying the game so far, and I hope it stays in this direction in the future.
