wow these vids are impressing the shit out of me. here are some things ive noticed:
* in the texas vs. oklahoma video we see a playaction pass. the qb escapes the rush and finds a WIDE open TE. at this point im discouraged and say wtf. i rewind and look, the MLB is supposed to cover the TE, but on the PA he completely bites on it and rockets himself at the RB (effectively taking the RB out of the play compeltely, but also leaving the TE open). if it were a running play it probably would have resulted in a fumbled he jumped the gun so fast, but the PA meant big yardage.
* in the same game, texas lines up in 3 wide. the slot receiver is running that ****ing dirty ass play that all the madden league players know and love (the one where he runs up and out at an angle, an outside post). i expected the CB covering him to bite and allow the big gain (which happened even in madden 06), but he played it perfectly as did the safety. should've been picked off but it was broken up by the wr
* texas QB scrambles around, RB is one on one with a LB or CB (didn't see) WAY down field. texas QB bombs it, and it is played perfectly by the defender who swats it away.
i have really looked at the logic in the DB's and why receivers are making catches when they are, and i can't see anything horribly illogical. yes WR's are catching the ball in open space, but why? because the D is playing its zone the way it should. it is just a good eye by the QB. i have yet to see a complete blown coverage or a play that really shouldn't have happened. not to get everyones hopes up, but i can only tell you what i see
p.s. i have seen a decent share of overthrown/underthrown balls when the qb is under pressure
