Are the top plays in the "Extra Point" just random plays?

I just don't get this one at all... I just played my first game, and while the game is great, the "Extra Point" is really just laughable.

From a half which featured an INT, a fumble, a 40 yard kick return, a punt that landed on the half yard line, a safety on the next play, a 8 yard TD pass and a field goal. (Score was 9-3 at half)

Here are the "top plays" from the half.

A 10 yard pass in the middle of the field on a drive that ended in a punt, a 11 yard pass in the middle of the field on a drive that ended in the field goal, a 1 yard run, a 2 yard run, and the 8 yard TD pass.

Seriously? It's not a "game breaker" but how difficult can it be to just show each of the plays that result in points and turn overs?

i THINK those random plays included are key plays on a scoring drive. not 100% sure though.

Youll never see a punt on a replay, thats just a fact. At least not on a video game. I dont care if he kicked 85 yards with 20 seconds of hang time. They shouldve showed the turnovers in YOUR game, but maybe they just dont make turnovers a priority since so many happen in Madden. Sounds like you just had a pretty uneventful game. Still shouldve shown the safety though.

They weren't, I know for a fact that one of the plays was on a drive that ended in a punt.

The 1 yard run sounds pretty exciting.

Good point.... I doubt the OP's 1 or 2 yard run was that good though. I don't even think Madden could recreate that kind of a play.

Same format as NCAA... 3-4 good plays and the rest, well let's just say there seems to be no rhyme or reason. But then again, who doesn't love a 3 yard rush on second down?
