I played a game earlier and I had a clean shot on Bernie Kozar with Butler after the play and the result was an injury. Has anyone else seem this. It was cool. Cheap, but cool.

Yes. That's just one of the reasons to accept late hit penalties. I know a lot of the legit/sim players want to let that penalty go, but you can't for that very reason, because it could hurt your player. The other reason you should never not accept a penalty is because it affects the momentum in the game, which is huge. Just listen to the crowd boo you after you don't accept. The crowd is the best (only) indicator of momentum in the game.

except that a majority of those penalties are totally bogus. I always look at replays before accepting those. They occur far too often, and I do not accept most of them.
you really accept them all? wow. lol.

if it changes momentum, whatever. What changes momentum more is a cheap 15 yards that never should have been called.

Redbull, if you think the A.I. is so bad, STOP PLAYING THE GAME. All you do is complain on these forums, just leave and do us all a favor.

Nah I get the urge to play football games sometimes and APF is the best we got.
Also, I WANT NOTHING MORE THAN TO HAVE A REALLY GOOD FOOTBALL GAME.
Honestly, if I could only have one game in my library, it would be a football game....but not if they don't make serious strides for the better.
If the community shows what they are disappointed in and what they're happy with, it can do nothing but speed the process.
If I didn't care I wouldn't post.
It's people like you who accept whats spoonfed and don't question the state of things that really hurt the evolution of these games that we all want to be better.

And from reading your post your the type of person who will look for every negative thing and complain about it, instead of excepting it for what it is, a video game.

Penalties, like fumbles, are part of the game, you just got to play it out. If there were a TON of penalties called in a game, then I can understand not accepting them, but they are few and far between. Anywhere from 0 to 4 (max) in a game.

boy the truth slides right off you. read my post and understand. have an original thought. look at something from a different point of view. force yourself into examining what might create an unpleasant revelation. It's for your own good.
BTW I'm an incredibly positive person, one who strives to help make things better, one who wants to make things better for others, one who tends not to accept the status quo if the status quo is not at the level it should be.
I'm tired of mediocrity and the people who seem to embrace it.
I'll take your advice and leave. Good luck.

You usually do get a bit overboard but I agree with this post.
There's nothing wrong with being negative here and there. It lets them know what they should work on.
If all anyone did was say positive things about a product then little would be done to improve it.
