Way to many TDs from teams that should not have that many"Jags" with 31 I think. Maybe the cpu used xp to bring up BG in awareness or something, who knows. Did anyone see how many tackles any FSs got? I hope they fixed it so its more than 20 to 30.

It was a simulated season so quarter length, difficulty, and sliders don't matter. I can't remember if there is an option to change simulation quarter length but I'm sure it was set to 15.

Seems like it'd be difficult to lead the league in any meaningful stats if the league is being simmed at 15 minutes and you're playing 5 minutes, or if you're playing 5 minutes and the league is being simmed at 5 minutes then the stats would be low.

It doesn't. You have to ensure that you are getting enough plays to have realistic stats.

I thought in one of the E3 videos, Josh Looman said Adem has been working on the stat engine for the last year, as it was re-written. I thought I heard that, but maybe he was working on something else. These look pretty good, although not liking see a DT lead the league in sacks.

Well, it has become a passing league. Last year there were 5 QB's with more than 30 TD passes, 3 of which threw 40+. I didn't like how many 1200+ rushers there were. BUT, even that isn't outside the realm of possibility. I believe it was 2003 (when Jamal Lewis rushed for 2000+) when there 14 RB's that rushed for 1200+. The league evolves almost on an every other year basis. I hope the sack thing was just a fluke of that simmed season...and I wouldn't call McCourty mediocre. He's pretty good.

That had to be extremely uncomfortable =P

Last season there was 1 1,400 yard rusher and 7 1,200 yard rushers (8 if you count McGahee's 1,199 yard campaign). In the game, there were 11 1,400 yard rushers and 22 1,200 yard rushers (Greene had 1,199).

Last year, there were 3 40 TD passers and 5 30 TD passers (Matt Ryan and Eli Manning threw 29 each). In the game, there were 2 40 TD passers and 15 30 TD passers.

Welker's low TD number doesn't bother me. Look at the 2008 and 2009 seasons in those years he had a combined total of 234 receptions and only 7 touchdowns. I'm sure Welker will get more than one in real life this year, but with the additions of Lloyd and Gaffney along with Gronk and Hernandez it's not unbelievable that he only grabbed one TD.

However, I was surprised to see Devin McCourty leading the league with 9 INTs. I'd love for this to happen in real life. Another thing I noticed is INT yards he had 9 picks, but only brought them back 6 yards? In fact INT yards are low for everyone looking at the top guys in picks:

D. McCourty - 9 INTs for 6 yards
A. Cromartie - 6 INTs for 33 yards
D. Levy - 6 INTs for 4 yards
N. Asomugha - 6 INTs for 0 yards
C. Houston - 6 INTs for 7 yards
N. Barnett - 5 INTs for 5 yards

One last thing the rosters will be updated for the launch, right? I noticed Joseph Addai was on the Patriots and Chad Johnson was on the Dolphins in that video.
