I really don't mean to sound sarcastic, but how come it took so long for this to be implemented in Madden?
This kind of thing seems like a no-brainer.

No-brainer? We're not talking hockey here where guys are lucky to have a GED. Football players went to college!

So do the Hockey players.

They go to Ivy League schools!

What kind of smarts has USC, Michigan, or Ohio State cranked out into the NFL? :splat:

It took them this long to realize that more of it's fan base is changing and they want something more SIM than arcade. That true fans of the game are tired of cheesing and money plays.

For the football gamers out there I'm glad that they've finally woken up to that.
Having different style QB's will open this game up - especially for Dynasty mode.

What kind of QB you have will determine what sort of offense you should be drafting.
If you have a passer who's slow of foot, has no long ball but is deadly in short range, then you'll be forced to draft a strong offensive line, and short route receivers. Guys who maybe can't run that fast, but are big, strong and run strong routes.

But if you have a QB who's got a great cannon of an arm, you'll be more inclined to draft swift receivers who can get separation from the secondary.

I'm actually interested in how this will play out. I haven't played a Madden game in years but I always loved the Dynasty aspect of it. I might have to check this out. I might even buy the PS3 version so Rude and I can have an online Dynasty against each other where I'll be happy to win more superbowls than him again.
Did I happen to mention before how I won 3 SB's to his 2? And my final one came against him in the Final? Because that's what happened. I rule!
