I will admit, I was pretty impressed by Andrew Luck's performance. Although he shouldn't deserve credit for the first play/TD, but he played great in the pocket and delivered near-perfect passes. Although it was only one game, where he barely played, so don't be calling him a BAMF just yet.

San Fran will be tough to beat, I'll admit. I think they have a halfway decent shot at the wild card though. Someone from the NFC North will get one spot, but after that it's wide open.

Combining Superstar-Franchise-Online Team into one giant mode, which is much more immersive and realistic. They also greatly improved the engine to make it more 'realistic', so in order to catch the ball, the play has to physically look at it, (opposed to before where a defender would magically turn). "Physics you can feel", which adds a bucket-load of tackle animations and making tackles more realistic. They also got rid of Gus Johnson and Chris Collinsworth, and will instead have Phil Simms and Jim Nantz, who are not only much better commentators, but they weren't scripted, but rather improvised like in a game, adding realism and more immersion.

Hopefully it's impress. Sadly, they STILL haven't done a complete half time show. They are however having just menus of the games best player's stats pop up.

no one wants to see a half time show... (well not me at least)

I do. Or at least bring back "The Extra Point" they had in 2011 (I think). It made it feel more like a REAL season and a REAL team and a REAL game.

Has anyone stumbled upon this hiarious site yet?

http://deadspin.com/5934703/why-your-team-sucks-2012-baltimore-ravens?tag=why-your-team-sucks-2012 :clap:

They don't have every team up yet but the ranting, oh the ranting, honestly my cheeks hurt from grinning, I am not looking foward to when they get to my team (well, maybe just a little bit :lol: ) but I will suck it up when they get to them.

*EDIT*
1) Better link

2) Nothing personal @ Raven's fans, it is just the first team done :)
