Whats the point? Every offensive play has defensive plays that will stop it. That's why you have many offensive plays to choose from.

yea the fact that the NCAA team is showing off offense AND defensive plays while the Madden team is only showing offense is leading me to believe that defense once again will be neglected.

Not a rumor, Dewiel from EA came in here a week ago and mentioned in a thread somewhere.

This was in the "Zona Short Post" thread back on the 31st, posted by Dewiel.

Dewiel EA Sports Community Mgr. For those of you who have been asking, we will be showing new defensive plays in Madden NFL 12 down the road. We are starting out with the offensive plays and will switch to the defensive side of the ball in a few weeks. Thanks –JD

ok good i didnt notice that because i didnt look at the Zona Short Post thread but that at least shows signs that they worked on defense. If its anything like its been for NCAA then we should get some nice defensive plays. Especially if they get exotic with their blitzes like Pittsburgh, NY Jets & New England do.

The fact that we're even talking about defense "plays" is a problem for me. Until we can build schemes ourselves, defense will be at a major disadvantage.

At the least, we need individual shading, individual press/bail options, seperate SS in the box option, edge rushing, contain assignments on every defensive "play", better pursuit & coverage AI.
