I agree on sim I got a pretty solid pocket formed quite a few times and it surprised me. That said, he is still correct. Madden is an eyesore in motion, way to many hery janky jerky animations, I could post gifs for days. I really feel like a new locomotion system is in dire need.
I like Madden 18 over-all though. I feel the franchise needs to do A TON more to its Franchise mode though as that is all I play.
