Madden 12: Cam Newton player traits

he isn't oblivious to pressure though...

clutch, well I guess I can buy that.. he had an insane amount of game winning comebacks though.

in college football

rookies always have shitty ratings. he'll probably have great physical stats(speed, strength, trucking, etc) but his awareness will be low which will tank his rating, just like Bradfords was entering last season.

so just because it's college he's oblivious to pressure? an intangible?

I get the clutch, but still.. "sort of" would be a better answer. but I'm not going to harp on that.

he's a rookie it's as simple as that

he was clutch against college defenses. you never know how one will translate to the NFL level.

madden doesn't rate people off of their college football performance. they rate them off of physical stats and their performance at the NFL level. all it'll take is a few weeks of solid play and Madden will throw an update in with better stats. for example Bradford started the season with an awareness rating of 63 when everyone knows he was a very good decision maker in college.

you guys need to not take everything so personally.

I think oblivious to pressure means that he doesn't get phased by pressure. I was reading an article and Ben Rothlesburger has the same trait and that's what the developers were saying it meant.

It's sandwiched between settings for throwing the ball away and forcing passes so that's why I interpreted it as pocket pressure, not general game pressure.

If that's what it means then okay, but if it means he's oblivious to pressure in the pocket that's ridiculous... the guy has eyes in the back of his head.

    • It appears that he sees things differently than the QB and OC, so Cam's advice is spot on. It isn't about number of targets, it's about quality of targets. Trust and being on the same page. BY doesn't know how to anticipate what XL is doing. And XL doesn't like where BY is placing passes. One on one film study would go a long way. More for BY than XL though. He has to adjust to XL. I really don't think XL can adjust on the fly. 
    • If the team shows improvement, then he shouldn't be in danger of losing his job - even if the record doesn't reflect. This was a very young team (with a lot of new vet starters) that overperformed last season. Somebody's doing something right. Consistency is key with so much youth. And we're potentially looking at new starters at ILB and FS. Those are positions that take time to fully understand the defense. ILB calls the front 7. Safety calls the back 4. Injuries at WR and IOL killed the offense last season. Depth needs to be upgraded. Same with Edge. I think they would have won more games if Pat Jones doesn't go down early. Be smart with the roster and draft. Trade players for assets when it's time to pay them more than they're worth - yes, that includes BY if he doesn't make a pretty big jump. That's one of the many reasons Tillis is as important as anyone to the future of this team.
    • He had heart surgery a while back he looks Fraile I hope he is okay
