the only thing that has value to me is chew clock and only when you are up 28 or more, hell I have played games where I would just assume chew clock when I was down 28...lol

I completely agree.

If you guess left or right run in slants your line and it really wrecks people. When I guess right My Dt's will blow right past the O-line and make a play.

This is probably the only thing I haven't liked in this years game. Definitely something that needs to be used in moderation, if even used at all

I agree. Ive tested with it and even if you guess wrong your line completely slants and confuses the Oline and is still in the backfield.

Just another example of the over done risk/reward gimmicks added this year.

Not a fan.

Hmm really I gotta test this more then.. Cause I notice you slant wrong way and you in trouble.. but if you run a draw and slant any direction .. it blows them up.

But I really dont use it much to scared to judge wrong.. So I guess that is why I have noticed it working anyway.

Only 2 plays I saw work well were toss and stretch if they guessed wrong way. Draws, any Shotgun run, isos and blasts just got demolished.

Anyone seen any night games or any type of weather at all??

I havent seen either as of yet.

Just wondering

i havent ...its always picture perfect

how the hell do you guess a run/pass before a play? I guess I should read the instruction book.

Or hit buttons during the game

I've been in quite a few games now with the sun going down...you can see the shadow move across the field during the game and the close-up shots after the plays you can see a "haze" if you will. Pretty sweet...other than that though, no rain yet.

Played last night at Mizzou & the screen had an orange glow to it to show the sun setting. pretty cool, but it lasted all game.

Yeah, Ive seen this glow as well but where are the night games?

I am not even sure if the real weather system is back or the real time thing. I just want some damn night games.

I have had a night game or two

make sure it is put on LIVE update
you may have it on manual by mistake.

Ok I coming over to cnasty and dr webbs side now on this.. After playing against it for a majority of a few games now, and then testing it in practice modes.. I have noticed that this feature when guessing run middle run left and run right is no different then line crashing.

Specially when you shift your line against the direction you are choosing to guess. It even works against the pass and that is what troubles me.

I mean if you play run and I pass your line should not be crashing through with pressure and sacks, where is my reward for passing. Also I find that yes unless you run a toss or stretch you are not gaining any if the guy guessed wrong. And the toss and stretch dont even work that well if the line was shifted against the crash.

So I stand corrected on this feature.. I m thinking this feature is way overdone and is the same as line crashing.

I say again the only feature that warrants use IMO is chew clock and only when up 28 in the 4th quarter.
