[h1]Player Roles in Madden NFL 12
[/h1]
Spoiler [+]
One of the most intriguing and valuable additions to Madden NFL 12 has come with the introduction of ’Player Roles’. The impact of each role varies from being helpful or detrimental on the field or in identifying their place on a team roster for management purposes.
Here is a look at what each of the 23 roles signify and the current lineup of players who have received a role for each NFL team. It’s unclear at this time if roles will be altered over the course of the year through roster updates.

Not completely sure but I think you can change a player's role in the edit players menu.

Yo is it just me or are dudes slowing my defense down? Like they use a playaction but they'll hot route RB so when the ball is hike, the screen is down like a run or play action but no play action. Its a regular pass play.
And yes rocket catch is still in. Ask Megatron.

Got off work a 2 and was EXCITED about playing this game. Got home and face 3 bum cheesers who beat me. Sometimes its just too much work to enjoy this game. I love football and Madden but playing this game should feel like playing metal gear on big boss difficulty.
1 guy was a rocket catch master with the Lions. My guys were in position but the ball was caught anyway. Same guy takes his safety and moves him around everywhere. He should be out of position for most plays but recovers and crosses fields for picks.
Another guy does 5 plays max whole game. Mainly full house package. Sweep left or right. My guys are in perfect position. He gets 5 yards a pop unless I take a guy and stay there but even then the running backs have the elusiveness of the RC car on Blackops.
Point is. Madden is a FUN game. But playing online 90% of the time isn't worth it. Too many guys cheesing or using some other glitch or cheat.
Does anyone else run into nothing but cheesers? I've played 13 games and 8-11 were cheesers.

rocket catch = cheesing
running 5 plays only = semi cheesing
running around wild with the safety and making plays = not cheesing.
the closest thing ive run into that could be deemed "cheesing" is this dude playing with the raiders and running around with terelle pryor. i hate how if your in a zone, no one recognizes the QB scrambling
nano blitzers are not appreciated
