Why does this game take so much control away from the player
They have animations that you are forced into for jukes and spins even if you are positioned well.
On play actions even if you read it and you are about to sack the quarterback it forces your character to turn around completely, losing an easy sack.
When you are punt the ball and it forces the guy you are playing as to slow down.
When you run into youe blockers and have zero control.
When you are forced into break tackle animations that force you the opposite direction or out of bounds.
And im sure that there is way more examples. The question is why?
