yeah, it gets kinda yellowy-brown in the middle. closer to last-gen wear and tear rather than what we saw in madden 07/08.

No. Just a fix where players wouldn't progress when edited.

What's so wrong with that? He's got a strong arm and if you just look at his passing stats, they are incredible. He threw for 32 TDs and only 6 INTs last year (67% completion) and all people want to say is that he's a running QB. If Alex Smith can be the first pick in an NFL Draft running the spread out of Utah, certainly Tebow can be a #1 pick and actually turn out well.

i think its cool for people like Tebow to be beasts, rather then come in at like 80. it will add something to the game not as dull. everyone will have there own thoughts tho.

i've never imported the class before this year. all i did was SIM a few NCAA seasons you guys think thats ok or should i actually play a couple?

lol...I don't think anyone is picking on your boy. I think the complaint is that guys in imported rosters come in too high. Tebow, as an example, has come in as high as 99 for some. No matter how good they are perceived to be, NO rookie should comein rated as a high 90's player.

Dude, those numbers are INSANE! Was T.O. the only guy who caught a pass all season?

OK, Gillette Stadium is definitely getting torn up, and it's supposed to be turf. Unless EA has it as grass in the game?

Also, I'm having the same freezing issues that I had pre-patch. That's why so many people asked over and over if we would have to re-start. Unfortunately, it looks like we do.

How in the world was the play clock glitch not fixed?
