Yea I agree you would have a general idea about what each players potential would be so to me their is no reason to show it. I would like to just judge it off of players attributes an stuff. Maybe next year I guess.

You do know the network is up and running right?

Man... the simulation stats have always been a downer for me. Specifically, actually almost exclusively, the 2000 yard rushers. The blog says they are fine tuning it, but it sounded tempered a bit. "It's the last thing we do before shipping."

If possible, just make 2000 yard rushers impossible. I'd rather NEVER see them then see them every year or every other year. It's only happened a handful (about 6, I believe) of times in NFL history.

Sorry to sound negative but it scares me! The rest of the stuff sounds excellent! I love the Dynamic Player Performance week in and week out. The NFL is not the MLB... it's not stats-based and formulaic. A player can be the best of all-time and still have a bad game a few weeks a season. I like that consistency is a big factor. Manning & Brady are going to be on for 14 of the 16 weeks. Vick may be ridiculous for 7 or 8 weeks of the season, and just average for the other 4 or 5 and maybe bad for 2 or 3 weeks. Really like that.

Hope it all comes to fruition as envisioned! They're really going all out this year.

With player traits it will be really cool to see if a guy like Randy Moss/T.O./Ochocinco actually performs better when he goes to a contender vs a mediocre team.

for years now Madden has been on wait and see mode for me. Some years I really liked and bought and others I just skipped. Head Coach 09 and Front Office Football got most of my attention. This blog makes me think this might be the year I can move on to Madden for my complete football sim. I love everything they have done here. Preordered Madden immediately after reading for the first time in years.

If all of what was mentioned here makes it into the game and works well, they will have gotten a customer back.
