Curious, thinking of buying the game or waiting until thanksgiving
It’s ok. Gameplay is kinda meh. Defense is basically a coin toss every drive. Player movement is improved. Packs are atrocious. Every game feels like the same game just on repeat. I think it is better than last year but that’s an extremely low bar.

perfectly put
Packs and content is very mid. I actually like the gameplay this year though. Games are typically close, i can run a nice balanced game and dont run into much cheese

So player movement is better.
What about Pass/Run blocking? Secure Protector became essential towards the end.
Coverage Man/Zone? Universal Coverage didn't fix this.
Physics? O-line couldn't block DB's.
Defensive awareness or play recognition adjustments? You could run the same few plays all game, no AI adjustments.
Pass drops/catching? Big issue and KO's made it worse.
One v One tackling? Impossible to stop the run towards the end.
Passing without Abilities? Try playing without Deadeye.
These were all issues last year and they were all addressed with Abilities and baked-on X-factors, but playing the game in Franchise mode was nearly impossible.
started off good, you may want to wait til november.
im learning a new playbook, so i suck BUT....there's no certainty you can even get the ball accurately to wide open players with some of the game coding

It’s a lot better than Madden 25, but still not worth $90. Still a lot of bugs, issues, and general annoyance. I would wait until the game goes on sale during Black Friday.
It's boring for offline play. The rewards aren't very good in the field pass without getting the premium upgrade.
I noticed on Arcade settings my team is more reactive than last year's and it feels smoother. However, Competive level vs the computer sucks. Their defense plays insane lol.
Defense is spam same 0 Blitz or the computer will toast you.
