Really a lot to digest and I can't do that while at work. But that's what impressed me most about this blog: the level of depth. At first read, some of this stuff can go over your head. It's good to see that level of football intelligence coming from the engineers.

Videos looked good too.

Great stuff here and a significant improvement.

My biggest fear is that running will become too easy. All of the AI has been programmed to the OLine. Add this to the fact that we know the CPU adaptive AI for play calling has left a lot to be desired over the years we could see some HUGE numbers in the running game.

I'd like to see what happens when someone tries to run the ball against a great run defense and/or a defense that is set up to stop the run.

Well...it's a start. The schemes look to be finally right, but the "look" leaves alot to be desired. Linemen aren't low to the ground when they are coming around pulling, etc...little small stuff like that would go a long way in giving the game a more authentic look.

I can't complain, should be real fun to run
