It looks like the CPU will still be trying absurdly long FGs that their kicker doesn't have the leg to make.

Sigh... We can only hope that your observation was a mirage and this only happens in Human vs. Human games. I'm still trying my best to stay positive and keeping faith in EA's ability to catch the little flaws that gave us headaches and caused us to bellyache for hours on OS.

Another thing that stood out to me was the lack of blocking on WR screens. That needs to be fixed.

Can you show a game between a team with dominant DL versus a team with an average or below OL. Without controlling anyone on the DL or a blitzing LB, I'd like to see how much improvement has been made with the CPU controlled front four pass rush.

That's what I loved about the last gen (specifically NCAA 06), when playing against teams with "impact players" on the DL, you had to know where that player was at all times because he was always capable of making a great play. IMO, I haven't really been able to tell the difference between the impact players and regular players on this gen.

EA should be ashamed of themselves for that commentary or lack there of. Game looks good but still concerned with the pass rush.

YES. Unless you intentionally run your man towards oncoming defenders, you will not get a block from a WR...

I heard the PA guy in the background go "and he moves the chains for another Oklahoma State First Down!"....nice little touch. Was that always in the game?!

They say suctioning is gone, yet the DEs are getting suctioned into the OT on every single speed rush. Their same ol' little "dancing around the pocket" animation. That crap sucks.

Y'all better get ready for zone blitzes, because it's going to dominate '12.

Suction has been replaced with canned animations I guess
