Kinda cool they use Oregon footage for Mariota's intro

That got me thinking. I don't know if the news feed that we've had the last couple years in CFM is still there but would they need an NCAA license or just an Oregon/Florida St. license to show that footage? Or would they need anything at all? I just thought it could be cool if they had those screenshots of rookies in actual college uniforms rather than those terrible generic unis. Highly unlikely and I'm not expecting that at all, just got me thinking.

Not a single thing in that video excites me...

Draft Champion looks like MUT, except you drat the player right before the game...

I am slowing down the video on that sack at 8:45, trying to figure out what happened on that one. Looks like the blitz and d-line stunt had the o-line confused, like maybe the RG thought he had help from the C but the stunt from the other DT has them crossed up

Good to see that DL stunts actually might work?

IT seems like it is a MUT for people who don't want to invest that much time or money. You draft a team, play a few games, and move on. I kind of like the idea, honestly. Not as my main mode of play but as a fun little side project

More than anything that's just your RG getting beat inside by a 3 technique which should never happen... Lol

They added this game mode and pretty much said nope to improving CCM. SMH.

Yeah at first I thought it looked silly, then I was trying to think it maybe was authentic. I dunno. You guys know more about the intricacies of line play than I do.

It would have been cool to see Mariota scramble away from that pressure to the right instead of kind of running into it.

Take a look at the 5:00 mark.. The Jets coach in the pregame intro is wearing a NYJ jacket but a Carolina Panther hat.

I saw that at first as well but if you look to his right there was a safety coming unblocked on the blitz so had he gone to the right he would have ran straight into him.

Ah, yeah you're right.

I can't emphasize enough how happy I am that they eliminated the morphing/ player clipping with player limbs fusing together or players walking right through other players lying on the ground after plays. That was such an eye sore & immersion killer in Madden 15. So glad they cleaned the physics up & improved player awareness!

Also to my surprise, looks like they've added different ball carrying styles! Can't tell if they're signature styles but they look much better as do the running animations!

I really like the presentation & camera work in the game as well. The guy they brought in from NFL films is doing a good job in this area. It gives the game that on the field access feel to it & I love that!

Kudos EA! There are still issues that I noticed & the animation quality can still get better but I like what Madden is bringing to the table this year.

Game play looks way too slow...definitely changing it to very fast.

They would just need permission from whatever college they are using. I don't even think it would be a licensing thing. I think it's like ESPN using highlights from the Longhorn Network, CBS, Fox, NBC, etc. This is just my thoughts.
