It's No Good!
This game has a lot of things going for it, playing more akin to NFL Blitz than your typical madden clone, an interesting pass system (though not much in the run game department, and the license use NFL players names in the game. Unfortunately it squanders it in the pay to win focus that has come to plague most of the sport simulators on the market. The gameplay is ok in that the passing is unique were you throw the ball in “real time”. Unfortunately, nothing else in the game has the same level of polish. The run game, though insanely strong never felt like you can get a good long run off because of the way the stamina system works. You will not be controlling the defense side of the ball (my favorite part of football), you cannot run out of the pocket in the traditional sense because your qb always is in passing mode, you only get access to 3 plays at a time seemingly at random, and there is a really weird interaction with diving for the end zone where you get i-frames for some unknown reason meaning that you only have to make it to the 5 yard line instead of the end zone because you can dive and guarantee at touchdown even as you are hit. Running a regular season is luster because you don't keep stats outside of the record for the regular season. Lastly, there is a heavy focus on competing against other teams which brings the P2W component of the game full circle. [4TljVxVY_8U](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4TljVxVY_8U)
