Also, I have blocked 3 or 4 kicks total in my time and in all of them, I have not had my hands even on the controller, cpu just did it for me, which again, makes it feel pre-determined.

I won't even bring up that fact that blocked kicks in real life rarely happen with the end guy flying in. Usually happen due to the DL push and hands getting up. O well
That is all true; unfortunately, that is how the blocking mechanic was programmed in Madden. The blocks up the middle are theoretically possible, I guess, but I never see them.

While it should be improved to be more realistic next year, overall, this version of blocked kicks is still a enormously better than what we had in years past, where blocked kicks were only the result of a glitch, or were outright impossible.
