Except for Eli Mannings 3818, 18 TD and 27 int's last year. I am not defending the game and I don't honestly think Peyton will only have 13 TD's next year. But I have been a fan long enough to know nothing is predictable in this league. We need the guys who have the game early to sim a couple of seasons and see if this was a fluke or if it really still is broken. I am not going to cancel my preorder based on one video.

By Manning standards..he isn't Dan Marino, different time..dan Marino played in a time when u could mug a WR..also Dan Marino played in a run heavy league..look at manning stats..no one else's we are using Manning as the sample

Can we stop using the word "broken"? It's overused when talking about video games. Sim stats aren't broken, they are inaccurate. Broken is where you get to a point in the game and can't progress. If the game crashed during every off season...that's broken.

Improvement over last year. Obviously still not there though. TD-Int's are still not right, it looks like teams won't score as many points in Madden as they will in real life. Too many ties, I think I saw 3 or 4. Summer sack totals are just a little high, but have been much worse. Completion percentages seem good! That was what killed franchise for me last year - when if you weren't Peyton Manning or Drew Bree's your completion percentage was usually 37-45 percent. The stats still need improvement (a lot) but I don't think they'll be a deal breaker for me this year

This was 2 min quarters right?

Sim stats for Madden have been underwhelming since the beginning of time.

My first problem was when I saw Stafford with only 3000 yards passing, then to top it off he completed 65% of his passes? No way that they both happen. He either throws for 4500 yards with less than 60% or he's over 60% and under 4500. All stats across the board except for sacks were low, insanely low.
How does AP all day run for 1800 yards and only 12 TDs? How does Wes Welker have over 1000 yards receiving but not 100 catches? Ratings must be way off with the players or the sim stats are broken again. Not the end of the world, but it does break immersion.

I'm talking about passing for the league as a whole. Only 2 4000 yard passers, best qb rating in the league at a 92, YPA in the 6s for most of the yardage leaders...
