Yeah! I froze it there to take a screenshot. i noticed the same thing. And the shoes subtly add to the overall realism of the shot. Also the blur/depth of field...

I can't believe no one has mentioned that Steven Jackson has a new running motion. Look at the first 20 seconds. I've never seen anyone in Madden run like that.

Don't forget that Ray Lewis still has R.Lewis on his name plate

Pretty screenshots have always been a staple of Madden. If this were Myst, Madden would rock. It's the movement (animations/rendering) that needs more life. The screenshots have always been top notch.

As far as Philly goes, the Andrews brothers are apparently just going with the family name without first initials in there first season together:

Jamaal Jackson and DeSean Jackson also had no first initial on their jerseys last year. And I think its safe to say that this practice goes for the whole team so Mike Gibson and Brandon Gibson also shouldn't have an initial. Although, I doubt both of those players will make it into Madden anyway.

Also couldn't find anything "official" on it but here is something on it from espn page 2 stating that "the rules requiring same-surnamed teammates to wear first initials, and same-surnamed and -initialed players to wear their full names, were scrapped prior to the start of last season (2007):
