Read the entire quote again, and then think about the wording. Remember, this is an EA game: articles about Madden like to spin "It's impossible to tackle AP without having 4 guys bring him down...so unrealistic!" to "I was controlling (insert linebacker here) and AP was giving us fits. He spun and juked his way to paydirt just as he would in real life. I was thoroughly impressed!"
The good thing is that as this is an EA game, there will likely be sliders.
