    punting: ball physics

    This is something that hasn't been right since the ps2. Im tired of every tired I punt the ball(if I dont coffin corner) it skids into the end zone % 95 of the time. Give me some wacky side way bounces, straight up bounces,back bounces, foward then back bounces, foward then side bounces...Etc. in real
    life the ball bounces foward about % 50 of the time, the other percentage varies. They need to put tho back in the game.

    Agreed. They really need to work on ball physics in general, as right now it doesn't seem that there are any realistic bounces or deflections.

      I agree. If you actually checked out the punting trajectory skill tutorial, the ball's physics was actually realistic in that. It wouldn't bounce 20-30 yards into the endzone, but rather roll slightly or bounce a few times and halt. It was very possibly to pin it inside the 10 to 5 yard line without kicking it out of bounds.

      I don't know why the ball physics while punting in the tutorial was more realistic, but not in a regular game. Baffling.

        I think there is something you can do while you are punting to make the ball bounce backwards! I think using the RB buttons or the LT or RT triggers! Try it out and see if it works! I know you could do something in Madden NFL 25.
