The exact opposite for my D line, which had sacked Eli 5 times through 3, didn't touch him in the 4th.
Damn really?

Could of sworn this stuff happens in real life, remember the giants troubled and plagued season? This is what football is all about, your team got too comfortable and so did you, should ran the ball and played accordingly.

This type of stuff is the very reason we get crappy games, some makes a bad playcall decison, pays for it and them comes complaining and making it an issue with the game and not himself!

You should of chose a better way of approaching that situation, I don't mean to sound so harsh but I am truly starting see what everyone else is seeing and saying about stuff like this. This was clearly YOUR fault!

It has been the most frustrating thing for me with Madden over the years. I can't run and the CPU can't run on me.

And because of that it just becomes a passing game. I know the NFL is all about the passing now, but good backs should be getting more than 3 YPC.

So if anyone has been able to get more rushing yards (on both ends of the field), what have you done to get that? Sliders?

Btw, this is on All-Pro.
Have you considered adjusting the game speed. . .slowing it down if you haven't already? My first two games (playing on All-Pro) saw results similar to yours. . .and playing with a slider set with very, very low run settings produced roughly the same. But once I dropped the speed, I found my ypc with Gore hitting upper 5's. In fact, I drove half the length of the field running behing my center. . .without a single pass. As for increasing the CPU's production. . .hmm. I recall that in one or two games Bradshaw tore me up with my slider set. . .so probably a combo of slower speed and sliders might resolve it?

Maybe on this play/game, but fumbles seem to happen for the cpu at the most opportune time. If not from my QB, then my RB or during a punt return. I took a risk because one first down and I could have safely run out the clock. It was just how fast their d line was getting to the point of attack felt cheap. I'm not one that generally complains of such a thing. I know momentum is HUGE in sports.

Yes, momentum is huge and this is a welcomed addition, it may seem cheap sometimes but its what I see on Sundays sometimes, peoples are trying to win lol.

It's all good.

Some of these complaints about the run game seem to me like its gonna do more damage than any good. It plays out Mich more better than it ever has for madden and I'm cool with that.
I don't know. Starting running backs averaging 2.7 YPC is the damage.

And remember, I'm not just talking about myself. I'll get better.

It's the CPU that concerns me. I'm still trying to improve on defense and I'm already destroying the CPU's run game, and this has been a regular thing for me recently in this series.

I want to see these guys get consistent yards.

Quick question: I downloaded the demo (ps3) and I can only play the Giants/49'ers game. No option for Sea/Wash. Did I miss something?
