The article made fun of Eli -- I was just using their example lol

Or visa-versa having a player like Manning or Brady get a slight boost if the defense starts to slip up.

I don't see why not considering they used the example of a "Shutdown Corner" Player role affecting Defensive lineman's pass rush and opposing QB's pass skills. Makes sense that DPP would have a defensive affect too.

this sums it up perfectly:

If the team at Tiburon can pull this off, it will be something special.

goals are one thing; execution is another. and with tiburon's track record, i don't have much hope for this panning out. remember all the blogs detailing improvements to the game that never made it on the disc? yeah, it doesn't look good. but it sounds really sweet. as always, we'll see.

"T.O. lacks concentration. If he isn't involved in the game, he might drop a crucial pass. You know this. So, as the coach, you need to call some short, high-percentage plays for T.O. to build his confidence and keep him focused. Because when he's focused, he might still come up big when you need him. Otherwise, he could erode the confidence of everyone around him."

This is what has me excited. In the past I would hit my top receiver early in the game and would "pretend" that getting him touches early would help his confidence and get my team going. Now it's actually going to have an effect on the game. Awesome.

I wouldn't go out declaring it doesn't look good unless we try it. There are some things that worked as advertised as well, including run blocking last year.

I'll agree with your last two words, we'll see.

finally!! this sounds like an idea that I have posted to their forum.

On the menu screen I see an option for manual. Does this mean this year we will have an accurate in game manual that might explain what actually does what. (Exampl DE moves) besides this all this other info is great to hear.

If i recall correctly, one of the madden devs said the OVR wouldn't change or be re-calculated. I thought they said only individual ratings would change. I could be wrong though.

Edit: Yeah, forget what I said, almost every article refers to OVR changing. I could of swore that I read one that said it was individual ratings. Oh well.
