I actually like this. That's more true to real life.

Has anyone noticed if you're on D and the offense has a break away play, if you switch defenders, there is some sort of hitch and it slows you down, even if you hold speed burst.

Here's to hoping the following is fixed for patch 2:

-Offline franchise stats

-Injured reserve actually freeing up a roster spot

-Backup RB's not sitting the entire 4th quarter

I LOVED seeing an unsportsmanlike penalty after one of my players was tackled out of bounds late! Nice touch!

Great game, but still some show-stoppers out there that need fixin'.

Yes, I have also noticed when I have an offensive break away run my player runs very jittery. The D always catches me from behind, and thats with guys like Chris Johnson, Adrian Peterson, and Jones-Drew. WTH?

Some good things: -The run game is a little better. -I love the new AFL uniforms, but I guess thats not patch related. -And I don't see as many pick sixes.

Well it must've been made a lot worse by the patch then because I never even noticed it before. Guess I should check my franchise stats,one of them must've got in on a tackle or something. (I'm in the playoffs now so it wouldn't have effected them) There's a few listed with tackles but they're special teams guys so I dunno. Though the bigger issue at hand is if it was there before the patch why wasn't it fixed?

Since the patch. I havet been able to complete a franchise game. Becuz my game constantly freezes my xbox. Thats a big problem. i always make it to the 3rd or 4th quarter than boom! My game locks and freezes and have to reset xbox.
