Running game dead..

I saw people complaining running was hard but this is a joke last year it was garbage, this year its somehow worse i went into goalline just to prove how dumb it is that a dime 3 man front will stuff that even with all the double this guy mike that guy like do ppl not enjoy running cause 2 years in a row where its completely dead. hate that im dumb and bought it again thinking it had to improve. I'm sure illl buy it again next year using the same logic thinking that surely it will at least get a little better rants over banishing self too franchise mode now.

yep its how EA wants it...they fly out these pro players and game changers who know squat. these ppl don't know what best for "the game" they only know what's best for "their game", to sell ebooks. but remember clunt says this game is a teaching tool lol smh. teaching what? teaching kids that running the ball is bad? that playing field position and punting is bad? that kicking FGs are bad? that dollar defense is a universal defense that can stop the run and also goal line? that LBs are unusable? that a pocket QB is useless? etc etc etc ......EA are a joke, period

problem is theyre afraid if they make it too easy then you have a madden 20 situation where you dont need to know much besides run stretch every single play and youll get first downs. WHat they should set up is make it more strategy based where linemen just truck safeties and corners in the box and have trouble run blocking against 4 down linemen and linebackers so you have to call fronts that can stop it rather than the minimal size based logic currently.

true, idk about formations, but there should be penalties for being in dime against goal line, severe penalties.  any formation with a fullback should also have run advantages against a formation without one.  they just need to add some handicaps to certain formations when the defense is unbalanced.  maybe the dime will ALWAYS beat the pass on a goaline formation, but it will get destroyed by a dive up the middle etc.

Yup.

Year after year, the oline is retarded and ignores the linebackers in almost every run except maybe duos or traps.

Imagine watching a guard ignore the MLB right in front of him and target a safety 15 yards away from the play in real life.

Then you have a 270 pound DT that dominates your center and guards on an iso from goal line along with instant sheds.

Your 320 pound olinemen get manhandled by 200 pound safeties.

There is 0 push from the oline.
