Yep I've seen defenders, 4-5 yards away from the receiver, running the same route as the receiver as if they are the ones about to catch the ball.
btw, last night, I was playing a game online and the EA bar at the bottom ( the one that shows down, distance, and time) disappeared. The whole 4th quarter I didn't know what the down, distance or time was. I was guessing. It didn't come back up until I was able to pause the game.
I thought this years madden would make me put NCAA 10 down, but I'll be playing NCAA just as much as madden this year.
