See, I don't know if I'm going to like that. I'm playing the game basically as the quarterback, and if I call a play at the WR gets open and drops a pass that should be easy to catch, that pisses me off. Same thing when I'm playing somebody and WR's make unrealistic circus catches more than maybe once in a game. I know they want it to be realistic, but it is a game after all...I don't want my offensive execution penalized by poor ratings.

Now if I was throwing to my 5th string receiver instead of the #1, that would be reasonable.

So you'll need a team with reliable receivers or have to seek them in franchise via draft/trade/FA. How is that not awesome?

You should've pre-ordered it from MicroCenter last weekend. You would still have to wait until Friday to pick it up, but considering you'd save $30, it's well worth it.

Wasn't planning on getting it until all the amazing reviews. And that was a 360 exclusive deal I believe.

You are correct. And its actually only $25 dollars off.

Still a great deal though.

I would love to get this game early after such a hectic crazy week. Im really looking forward to unwinding this weekend and get a franchise started.

More on ratings

I wanted to see if Tom Brady would test Nnamdi Asomugha. Well, by the time the first half was over, Brady had not attempted a single pass to Asomugha's side of the field. But in the third quarter, it happened: Brady to Moss on a fade route -- Asomugha batted the ball away as Moss tried to bring the ball in. The very next play Brady thought he saw an opening on a deep-post route -- 65 yards later Asomugha had scored a touchdown, and Brady would not look his way again for the rest of the game. You see, Asomugha has a 99 rating in man coverage, so you just don't toy with him. This proves the point that ratings matter...

Let me say again that ratings actually make a difference this year. You will see the real superstars shine for the most part. You can easily see the differences between elite players and the average players, but you can also tell the difference between various elite players. What I mean is that you can tell the difference between the quick and shifty Adrian Peterson and the bruising style of Brandon Jacobs.
