This angle would be better suited for Superstar Mode as the QB. BTW, field turf looks very nice.

I disagree this angle would be great for in game, more eye level with the field so you can see your WR's and not be so pulled away from the action that it feels like you are controlling ants.

Next gen should get us closer to the action while still seeing everything on the field instead of just taking us further and further away from the action.

All the hands on aren't much different than each other.

I don't want to be forced into a mode for this though. I'd rather they consider player lock or something. I just want to be able to easily select and customize my view.

You can see your receivers as well as you probably should be able to from the pocket.

Perhaps that would be a good solution. I played First Person Football for years, so your instincts about where guys are going to be heightens while playing after a long time. In First Person Football you use the right stick to move the players head. This however would force this view to be regulated to a mode and maybe give EA less incentive to have custom cams, which I think would not be ideal. I think custom cams would really be helpful.

I guess my deepest desire is to see a custom cam good enough to allow me to make this angle. I realize there are people who will have trouble playing that way, but it's perfect for me. I think what that says is that custom cams would be a win for everyone, because then we could make the camera's to our liking.
