So after reading the patch thread a couple days ago, how people were saying the game is back to playing like it did on the Beta. I remained skeptical. Welp, after about 6 games played I can finally say the gameplay is back to being awesome IMO.

I'm finally having crazy games where it comes down to the last drive - and even then I was only manage to hit a FG to tie - go into OT and we both shut down the offense, each getting a FG before time ran out for my first ever (?) TIE game in Madden lol...

In one Franchise Im playing with a complete crap rebuilding team, I even traded off almost everyone over 80 OVR. Before the patch I was still winning with this team like 31-17 or 24-10 type games. NOW I can't shut down a good offense to speak of --- and it actually MAKES Sense. I got slaughtered 21-40 against the Cowboys. It was actually very competitive until the second half surprisingly.

Another thing I want to say - DEEP Threat WRs are actually playing like Deep Threats. Every now and then you see them getting open down the seem, time it right and they have a 58 yard pass. However, throw it to the same player for a 3 yard catch with on 3rd and 2 and if he gets hit while catching it, it drops.. he's just not ready to be an all around WR yet. This was John Ross for example. Pretty spot on. Same goes for the tall TE/WR below a 75 who hasn't developed much besides ok CIT - good in the redzone but god forbid you throw a 15+ yard play to them, most likely a drop or bounces off their hands.

So yeah, players are back to playing like themselves, I love it. Only thing I'd ask them to tune is the USER pass rush. It's back to being almost impossible to beat your OL unless you have a pass rusher above 90. That's the ONLY problem Im having. Loving the gameplay now, and hope the rest of you guys are as well.
