I 100% believe that the blog coming up will be a Presentation blog. Presentation blogs are usually one of the first blogs released(like Madden). Since they're releasing the cover, they might believe that it will be enough info for 1 week(Even though it was obvious that MArk Ingram will win). The big info will come on the draft week like MAdden.

because EA stated that day 1(someone asked and EA replied with there are more than 25, they are just "spotlighting" 25).

also, considering a lot of these new plays are in new formations, it's easy to see that there will be more than 25.

EA proves they know nothing about football again. A dig route is this "pivot" route they've created. The other route they're talking about is just a crossing route, no special name for it.

The pivot route is where the receiver fakes the slant then immediately runs like an out pattern towards the sideline.

All teams have different names for everything. While obviously there is a lot of overlap, this is hardly proof EA know nothing about football.

For example, what most teams/people call a "pivot" (a receiver runs an slight angle in, then turns over 180 degrees to run an out) the patriots call a "return". EDIT - In fact this is exactly what it looks like A is doing in the play art, although we can't tell which way he is turning until we see a video of the play.

Thats the route I'm talking about. Every terminology I've ever heard has called that route a dig. At the very least, the highlighted route that EA calls a "dig" isn't one. I guess I could be wrong, but on any team I've ever played for/camp I've been to, that pivot route has been called a dig.

I think the description is spot on. A "dig" route is a "deep in" which is the highlighted route on the playart. While the pivot route is called different things by different coaches most coaches consider the highlighted route a "dig."
