Despise both of those teams. I guess I'd rather play with Manning.

I thought it was pretty good. Seems like some audio was missing (hopefully). I don't like the commentary as much, but the running game seemed nice. Running is much better than last year but I noticed Colinsworth says Tom and not Gus lol if it stays that way. Ageed. And except for scoring touchdowns, the crowed is completely quite. Kickoffs, trying to pump up the crowed on D, and their are alot of empty seats in the stands. And how do I put players in? I couldn't figure that out. And when LT was in he is hella fast and small, and missing his facemask (just a normal one).

The demo definitely has me intrigued. I didn't play through a full game, but tried to get used to some of the changes and whatnot.
The Gameflow option is interesting. Wearing the headset and having the calls fed to it makes things seem incredibly realistic. At the same time, not really having the ultimate decision as to what the play will be seems like a draw back, and I don't consider myself well versed enough in football to make my playbook prior to. Not sure if it's a feature I'll use regularly.
Very excited to play the full game as usual. I'm sure I'll get my money's worth, just as I have the last couple of years.

The Strategy Pad is STUPID, in the simplest terms. On D, you can't even make an adjustment cause the CPU snaps the ball just like that.

Just played the demo, I really enjoyed it. Gameflow is nice, but I still prefer to call my own plays.
I (as the Jets) got up 24-18 with about 45 seconds to go in the 4th quarter. Manning starts the drive at their own 17 yard line. It's 2nd and 10... Manning drops back and fires a shot deep downfield to Wayne for a touchdown. Indy wins 25-24.

Rookie difficulty much? I have never one a game as I have played as teh Jets every game. Any tips on breaking free on a kickoff? I'd be lucky to get to the thirty.

I hate when people play football games on rookie/Freshman and are like "Man I destroyed this team yesterday 70-0". Ill play about a weeks worth of Exhibition on rookie to get a feel on the controls but once I start seasons and franchises I gotta play on a much more difficult level.

The kicking system is horrible. Accuracy is horrible.

The kicking system is horrible. Accuracy is horrible. It's very confusing at first glance, but once you figure it out it's not bad.

Kicking is so easy once you learn it.

Kicking is so easy once you learn it. Agreed. And there's no chance of a twitchy thumb accidentally sending a kickoff sailing out of bounds

Haha I meant there's no chance of shanking it unless you're tapping the A button like a mad man
