I go for it also. I have only punted once in all my years of madden and it was because it was like 4th and 20 on my 1 yard line.

I usually don't get to 4th down. I usually don't even get to third down.

Oh yeah play action works really good which is kind of annoying, people use it a lot online and I usually end up struggling when I play them because they use like one or two plays that are automatic for them and I just cant figure out how to stop em.

As for the running game I use the Steelers there left side is the best for the running game with Smith and Faneca, they both have the bulldozer symbol icon but I usually can run it on either side of the line pretty good, on the other hand the Steelers line is very bad at pass blocking much like in real life.

I have one friend that goes for it on 4th down every time but he is horrible so I'm not to worried about him lol but people online are just Ridiculous with it. It would be pretty cool if you could have different options to choose from if you play online as in an option where people actually play the game the way it should be played as in a real football game not just air it out or use a few plays everytime.

I don't know about everyone else, but i wouldn't want to sit and play a game that takes about 3-4 hours to play. I play on 3 min quarters on all-pro, that way i can get a lot of franchise seasons done without taking weeks to finish one.

If fair play available? About 20% of online players actually want to play fair games. Winning is on the top of their minds, but I play Madden for fun. Do you play Madden on the pc?

Well I have played both a decent amount I prefer the ps3 but I have always been a playstation fan lol, not to mention you get free online play with a ps3, I heard 360 was going to do that but I'm not sure when.
