Common sense also realizes that people were complaining in numbers that the backup RB's ypc were low.

I don't agree with not releasing the patch. I don't appreciate the stats where they are, but I'll take the gameplay improvements of patch #2 over a few stats out of whack, knowing that they mess with franchise mode.

I've seen some slider strategies that will improve the yardage problem.

What I'm noticing is the whacky YPC numbers for plus RBs seem to be inflated most by too many 20+ yard runs. Guys are regularly running for 200+ yards a game but it's not because they're actually picking up 8-10 yards a carry on a regular basis... they just have a few 50 or 60 yard breakaways in there and the numbers are being thrown out of whack.

That's exactly the issue. It seems like ratings don't matter because almost every RB breaks 1-3 60+ yard runs per game.

It is rather annoying to see the rushing leader after 2 weeks have 20 carries fro 220 yards, it is what it is though. I'll deal.

Is this patch 1.03? Because that's the one my PS3 is downloading now.

Ugh.. this new patch won't even download. I hate psn updates... they never work. I'm connected to psn, played madden online last night without any problems. When I tried to download the patch, nothing happens, it remains at 0, and the time continues to go up. This happened to me the last patch. But after some miracle, it worked. But, for now, I can't download the patch so no madden for me. Also, when I try to download the patch, the internet crashes, which makes no since. It's ONLY madden patches.

Yeah something was wrong with stats before the patch and afterwards. I simmed a season before the patch and I saw good RBs averaging liek 1-2 YPC. And no team, not no player, but no TEAM had over 9 rushing TDs. This season like 12-16 RBs by theirselves have double digit TDs...
