No run blocking stats?

By Rotor

I see the little guys pushing each others on the field but I can't find run blocking stats. I understand that the notion of "krb/kro" (key run block/opportunity) is a bit artificial but the notion that "x runs failed because y couldn't open a hole" would be very useful. Thoughts?

shameless bump. I'd like at least to be sure that the stat isn't hidden somewhere. Just a plain "it just doesn't exist" would give me peace of mind and I wouldn't ask again ;)

I am not aware of any run blocking stats either.

There is not currently any tracking of the run blocking stats. It's a difficult stat to track given the nature of the game engine, but I'll put a ticket in to try to solve it.

It would also be interesting to see tackles for loss and broken tackles.

I believe broken tackles are being tracked - I thought they were in the stats but apparently not, probably because they don't really apply to any of the tabs. I'll make a note to add that to the MISC section.

You Guys should just wait to play Madden 2035!!! But I doubt if it will have stats like that by then either!

At this rate, this game will never get complete!

I'd love to see QB hurries tracked. Gives you a sense of what your pass rush is doing or not doing as the case may be.

Minor item I know but the more feedback you get, the more interesting it is, at least for me.

I agree - that one I do have on the TODO list.
