- The players don't move as smoothly as in 05 or as quickly. They move like robots and it isn't even close to looking natural
- The juke stinks. definition of a juke is fake one way and go the other, not just cut right.
- Let me edit how the players look.
- If I wish to creat a player and make him 99 rating in everything then let me, don't make me work out the player, it's dumb
- I miss in franchise mode being able to hire my HC, OC, and DC, creating my stadium.
- A pre- game show, halftime show and post game show. or atleast a half time and post game wrap-up with highlights of all games that week.
- Why did you guys change the button configuration after 4 years, that was dumb
- More defensive line moves would be nice and also when you hit the spin button have them move to the side you want them to spin and not just spin flat on their face. When you hit the swim move make it look real, instead of them waving their arms like spazzs,
- More realistic tackles, ex. hits in the air (when reciever is jumping and catches the ball), more ferocious hits when the hit stick is used, gang tackles and dual tackles (like if my linebacker is losing the running back have the strong safety finish him off with a big hit) Also a player with a 60 something rating in tackling should not be able to hit like a jackhammer.
- Better ratings on drafted players, especially later round players. Make diamonds in the rough ie. Colston from the saints.
-When a player has an all-star year, rate him like it the following season. I am sick of have a 79 rookie running back get 2000 yds and only being rated an 84 the next season.
- I like the idea of a "potential rating" but to add to that have a "bust rating" too.
- Have who you have as a Coach and asst coaches have an effect on how your team plays. Bad coaches bad results
- For God sakes how about a dive over the top running plays for short yardage and goaline please.
- your current gen announcer is horrible and should be taken out back and well you get the picture
- When you create your own defensive formations please let me be able to place the player in a gap or over a specific player (ie the DT in the guard center gap or my linebacker over the guard or TE)
- What ever happened to boot leg passes or putting in the option spread from the shotgun that Vince Young uses. Or incorporating fake hand offs and then handing it off to another back ie fake to the fullback and then hand it to the tailback
- More realistic match ups like if I have a 250lbs LB blitzing or If i have a 285 -300lbs defensive lineman breakthrough, a 200lbs RB might only slow him down not stone wall him. And 185-200lbs corner is probably not gonna stop a 220-250 pound RB or TE much less level him. If they do stop them, they cut them at the knees. This is like alot of running backs on 07 running over Urlacher because they use the truck stick. C'mon give me a break
-What is the point of the Y button if you have the truck stick? When I played football cover up the ball with both arms and lowering head was trucking. So what is the point of two buttons for the same action
- When I throw a sideline flat route and my runningback or reciever run out of bounds automatically again i am going to throw my controller through my plasma TV.
-I miss the stadium stuff in franchise mode from the other maddens.
Thank you for your time reading this.. I hope you make 08 alot better than 07.

yeah i forgot about that reicevers should be able to get there legs taken out when they jump for a catch
