I agree. Why can't they do a blog just saying how the commentary will be dynamic. Even give examples ( written or live would be adequate).

And to me dynamic isn't just mentioning my team is undefeated in the pregame. I would like to know how individual players are playing both in that game and in the season.

They have a presentation reveal coming soon, Rich Grisham said he'd have a podcast with mike young in the next week or so, so when that podcast comes out I'm sure they will release a blog and probably a video about presentation.

Interesting. Looking forward to seeing that.

I'd really like to see a matchday feature like Fifa. One of the reasons I like NBA 2K so much. The Show added it this year, now time for Madden and NHL to follow suit.

Exactly this. Other games tend to go all out in this regard. As for an example from EA, FIFA updates you on how many goals a player has in the pre-game AND at key points involving that player, and it fluctuates from game to game so you won't hear the same banter in every match.

An example is in a game I had between PSG and Leon, where Martin Tyler commented on how Zlatan Ibrahimovic "has 19 goals in this campaign and almost scored another" after he missed the net on a corner, or how Swansea City's Michu (I kid you not) may "not score this many goals again" based on over-achievement beyond his player ratings.

As for "commentators" other than Jim and Phil, I honestly hope this "dynamic" content isn't only reserved for the Twitter feeds. If anything, it would seem like a re-hash of the Storyline Central feature from last-gen's Madden with more personalization instead of anything truly groundbreaking, innovative or industry-standard.

I wonder if they will still do the Branching Draft StoryLines with the Imported Draft Classes??? anyone know the answer to this

No storylines with imported classes.

I can't wait for that I want to know what they did with the presentation this year.
