Please ask him when the free agent ratings will be released (if they haven't already been released along with the defensive players on monday)

You should ask him how come special teams is never given any attention to in Madden.....I know you guys have to ask certain things in these interviews and not every question gets answered but I think this is a valid question that EA tends to sweep under the rug every year. I would really like to know how come they have yet to find away to make Kick/Punt Return specialist effective in Madden and why do they have a Return rating assigned to all players if it doesn't really factor into the actual gameplay? Maybe they should expand on the ratings for Kick Returners such as field awareness + vision because as it stands right now 90% of the time they don't look to avoid defenders and a guy like Devin Hester or J.Cribbs has never been a factor in field position for Madden. Also, you should ask him how come Long Snappers never make mistakes in the game, how come we always struggle to see blocked kicks or punts and have they ever though about how their actual ratings tie into certain animations that rigger on the field. For example the less the strength assigned to the Offensive Lineman ratings the more likely you'll see realistic Pass Rush animations trigger...things like Offensive Linemen being pushed backwards or off balance. Ask him to go back and fire up a old Packers or Eagles game and watch Reggie White and then ask him if he's ever seen that type of power rush play out in any version of Madden to date.

[MrBill]

Lots of good questions guys! I'll be adding new ones to the list until 2PM central this afternoon.
