Yesterday, you posted progression after simming 1 season.

Could you post the progression/recession of the 2nd year?

Steve, in the demo there are only 3 wildcat plays for the cowboys, i know youre doing a frachise with them so i was wondering if there were more than that in the real game and can you pick who plays "qb" on those plays.

Would you be able to list all of the players that retired after the 1st year of franchise mode? Because in past years retirements always seemed scripted so guys like Marvin Harrison, Kurt Warner, and Brett Favre always retired after one season with a 90+ OVR and I was wondering if you noticed much difference in M10.

Will post results later tonight, but I'm not going to do a lot of them.

Is the cpu watch mode out in offline franchise as well. Just wanted to clarify becuase those ign videos of playoffs seem to be cpu vs cpu.

Cool thanks. Does that count as an answer because I have another question?

In Madden 09 progression was almost always the same once you started a new franchise, for example every new franchise, after 1 season Matt Ryan would ALWAYS go up +3.

Have you noticed this in 10? Or have you found progression to be more dynamic?

Yup, just 3 plays. There are a few teams that have more, obviously.

In the packages, WR2 at QB, WR at QB, HB Swap, Normal, TE Swap (for blocking purposes), Fullback lead (again for blocking purposes), Backup QB and QB. You can of course hit the RB button and swap out that way as well.

I've read that Phil Frazier said it was possible to change CPU team equiptment in franchise. Yesterday you said that this is NOT possible, so could you confirm this for sure. Thanks for this.

Steve, are the replays shortened in the real game like they are in the demo? In the demo, for an interception TD, fumbles kick off return, 80 yard TD pass, etc... the replays will usually only show the last 20 or 30 yards of the play, usually missing the best part of the whole replay which is where the highlight occurs... is it the same in the real game?

Can you tell me if the cpu controlled teams in franchise offer trades that include players and if they make trades between cpu teams that include players not only picks?

Hey Steve did you look and see if it records players that have won the big game, I mean you would think it would with the new state engine

I need to clarify something. My apologies, but you can spectate all offline franchise games. Please spread the word, you can spectate all offline franchise games. Sorry, I misspoke in yesterday's post.

Can you post the list of free agents in the game and their overal rating?
