Throughout a season I enjoy playing around with different teams' personnel and playbooks, and I usually play at least one playoff game that doesn't involve my team, for much the same reason.

Looks like I'll be sticking with '12 and the fubar rookie player models. Or just stay with NCAA. They haven't messed that up like this yet.
if you don't play as a created coach or legend you can play other teams games. you just have to switch coaches to the team you want to play as and then after playing switch back to your original team.

I didn't realize how many people like to play other games in franchise. I choose to play as the bengals and always play their games but never play any other non user controlled games. Not judging just an observation.

I must say, I usually get excited for Madden but this may be the most excited I've been for a Madden in a long time. I'm really looking forward to seeing all that the new CCM has to offer.

Ugh just saw a bucs video and some players equipment isnt correct. Some players are missing visors that actually wear them. This is such a bummer, i hope opening up equipment editing can be patched EA has been really quiet about it in fact they havnt said anything. A simple yes or no would go a long way.

LMAO! I am not laughing at the poster but this is a hilarious statement given all the outrage following so many "simple yes or no" answers from devs this entire cycle, lol. That's not some shot at those disappointed by some of those yes and no answers because I have been too. However it's just funny to see it suggested that would "go a long way" because it has clearly only gone but so far when done.

Which is still more complicated then '12 or NCAA, where you can actually just play a game without controlling another team.

I find it amusing that the OS icon for NAU is 20 years (and three rebrands!) out of date.
