"Meh." That's how I feel after the gameplay trailers. Hopefully there is something a bit more substantial in the CFM playbook in a few days.

Guys, cmon...that honestly wasn't a bad trailer at all.

One thing that stuck out to me was one of the first tackles where I think it was JJ Watt kind of "rode" the block and tackled Ray Rice. This is huge for the running game if those kind of blocks are in the game.

Everything else looked fine to me.

I'm glad I wasn't highly anticipating this trailer as some were. Wake me up when the Season Ticket version is available.

now that they mentioned defensive awareness . I hope someone can go in depth from a ratings perspective to answer whether awareness or play recognition is better or in Madden 25 they hold the same weight.

defensively for Madden from a gameplay perspective other than a working strip button, and redo power and fatigue moves nothing else gameplay way they can add. The rest for them to add to defense is more strategic and more about things that even the average football fan wouldn't know about.

Gap control and assignments, zone assignments, and footwork . IMO those things haven't been addressed from a defensive perspective.

True but didn't they say that they've been working with this technology for like 2 years now

I think there's the hope that they're better prepared and know that something like that can't fly again. It's unknown at this point though. That's what makes the next month or so so intriguing. If they released an improved fully fledged next-gen game rather than a demo knock-off, it could go a long way moving forward. But again, all of that is yet to be determined and we should probably get a good idea of where we're headed in the next month.

Not sure if this is poor mechanics showing through or poor ratings in regards to the blocker...

On a high note - Bowman (53) does push away from the blocker, which may show again an instance where suction blocking is reduced...
Looks more like the latter. Poor ratings because Bowman looks to be way faster than that guy. Looks more like an attempt than a skillful effort if you know what I mean.

Maybe if it happened two generations in a row with the same dev team. That was only 1 generation transition and now they have a new dev team. The only way for that claim to be justified is if a bad generation of gaming actually happens that way for this next gen or if it already happened. All we can do is sit back and wait. Not get worked up over one messed up gen.

Two things that stood out to me.

1) The bull rush by the Atlanta DE was awesome. Completely destroyed the tackle.

2) At 1:06 the DE #56 for the Steelers makes a beautiful pass rush move.

Hopefully they can implement these moves and keep them balanced.

I will just mention one thing and be done with any defensive improvements implied to Madden 25. Players standing around the ball.....just look for it and know that when ever "that" animation is triggered...there's no stopping it.

To add to my statement I give the example of the Patriots Bills portion of the video where Mayo stands up the ball carrier....although earlier in the video you see a clean up hit, in this instance you see two other players come into view and don't attempt to effect the play...they just watch. This indicates to me that whenever the stand up tackle animation occurs, there's no stopping it. If this is the case then there are certain to be other instances where animations won't be able to be interrupted.
