That's it. I am now officially excited to hear more. The fact that they mentioned franchise mode so early tells me that they feel good about this. Bring it on!!!

The Gronk cover on Xbox.com is not the cover

Everyone can relax about the equipment too, they could EASILY have added it along the way, until we hear something definitive on it I wouldn't just assume that new gloves or cleats is all we are getting. Think about it, if you make a big investment in something you wouldn't want to be found out by a screenshot not even directly from your company. I'm not surprised at all about the renewed focus on franchise mode, I knew that based on my time there last year and I've felt since then that 17 would do for CFM what 16 did for gameplay.

I'm gonna reserve my opinion on this until I see exactly what they mean. I think that it could be a good thing if it's like NBA2K/Live's "shot feedback". I can run the rock pretty good but I'd still like to know how the game views what I'm doing. But like you said, it should be able to be turned off if the cues are pop ups.

Man, I haven't been this pumped for Madden in years! Hopefully we get even more info on the game in the trailer.

Very excited about the franchise mode, I never like CCM since Madden 13 when it was first introduced, but good to see a few equipment upgrades but with a screenshot like that they would have completely won me over equipment wise with Brown having his mouthpiece in.But these are early screens so I'm still optimistic.

I'll play the wait and see game when concerning the ball carrier feedback. We already had it in a sense, it was just reserved for training and its probably best to leave it there. I hope the ball carrier feedback is a mechanic left out of online play as well.
