I knew the eagles and seahawks used it but a bad formation is a bad formation.

didn't we run Marion Barber on a sweep to get a 1st down and clinch a game last year?
wasn't that td by Felix vs the bengals a sweep or toss?

Guys, he can't run it on Madden so it's a bad play. You've got to know your audience.

I look at this and see either Bennett wide open for an outside curl underneath Austin, or pulling to lead block the MLB to spring Barber.

Makes the hair on my arms stand up.

I admit, when the draft selection came up I wanted Mendenhall. I thought he was the more complete back. Once I saw Felix in the pre-season I knew I was very wrong.

Deep out to Roy Williams. Fade to Roy Williams. Need to maximize on the things he is good at.

Vertical routes for Austin, he has already proven he can get behind defenses. Bennett in the red zone is going to be a monster.

Anything to get the ball in Felix's hands.

Any variation of the screen.

I don't want to work that much out of the shotgun if Gurode can't get his timing down.

I'm pumped.

Like the two known facts that you said about the Pro Set and sweeps?

That's simply a personal admission on your part that you have played Madden on another gaming platform at or before 2007. So..?

Aw, so the problem is you don't know what a wishbone offense is. Because this one I drew up in no way, shape, or form resembles a wish bone.

Make it easier on us, tell us what you do know about football.

Do you prefer draw plays or delays for instance?

Same here, I really didn't want Felix Jones. After seeing what he can do, i've never been happier to have been wrong.

Okay.

I'll bite.

Why is the pro set a "bad formation?"

Because in Madden it only has like one running play that ever works.
