not to disrespect you, but who cares iof he puts his hands in the handwarmer.

the gameplay is what needs to be fixed.

everything else like handwarmers can come AFTER the gameplay has been fixed and all points brought up have been addressed.

ian seems to have done a good job on who he picked. god forbid YOU went to the event....lol

I was hoping that a cutscene or something would show the players putting their hands in the handwarmers, only time will tell. I don't feel a need for the players doing this real time, just seems pointless.

I ran it from the I Normal and didn't do much with it at all. When I ran it from weak I I got two good gains out of it. But let me say this too though. Some of the problem is not the full back dive. Some of the problem is the linebackers not stepping up in their gaps when you call certain plays. If you call any zone the linebackers will not step up in their gaps, they will take their read step then immediately drop out to zone. I was a big stickler on this. They know about this.

Excuse me? I asked a simple question since there a ton of people who wanted this in the game. Me, I could give a **** less about handwarmers. I do, however, think it is cool that they added it and was wondering if it was for aesthetics only or if it actually serves a purpose. So, maybe next time you should think about spouting off before you actually do it.

Thank god you didn't go, all we'd hear about is how you wish you played it for the "superior" PS3 j/k

Just a question....so you're saying that they should fully commit to the run even though they're in zone? I'm just trying to understand you. Because what if they run a playaction? They could just beat you over the top, right? Enlighten me.

In 09 I had the curl and "make it rain" down. Again, I'm not saying you will not be able to do it on the curl, because we only had 16 hours with the game. I'm not going to promise then two days after release people say, see they lied. I got it down. Like I said in the post though, I did get a stop catch animation that I was not too thrilled with and it looked like the WR was about to rocket. I do want to say though, I think the QB ratings (short accuracy) are going to play a roll in how things are able to be pulled off successfully. God forbid if you have Tavares Jackson and try doing it. The guy sucks in this game in terms of accuracy.

Church! I love reading the X's and O's stuff. Can't wait to see what EA does with this great feedback.
