The fact that people have to resort to "meta" plays to combat the CPU stupidity is on EA, not the gamer.
I can't tell you how many times I feel like throwing my controller because my 3-4 play that's supposed to stuff the run gets blown open for a 65 yard running TD. I can't tell you how many times I feel like throwing my controller because trying to play QB from the pocket is an absolute nightmare. Nothing gets open on offense and everything is intercepted and there's 0 pass protection.
That’s true but if you have to RELY on the meta to actually win, that’s a different story. The meta for years (since Madden 13 lol) has always been scramble out, stand at the sideline, and throw to whoever gets open. Now with abilities, they just amplified this to make it ten times more mind numbing to stop. Most of these dudes who use scramblers wouldn’t even touch Madden if they were forced to use a pocket passer. Which is my point: they have the brain power of a 14 year old because they go to YouTube to look for the easiest way to win. Not actually thinking about anything for themselves.
