With the new running combos, I'm starting to think I'm getting too old for this ish.

Madden 25 features ball-carrier combos, engine improvements | Joystiq
This stuff is literally straight out of FIFA. As a longtime fan of that series, let me assure you, striving to make your game like FIFA is a fantastic thing. You'll still be able to play without mastering all the combos, but it will certainly help to differentiate the most skilled players from the lesser ones.
My main issue is will the defense be worse with the implementation of the new running combs?
The Force Impact system is pretty sweet and uses the size of a player, the weight of a player, and the impact of the collision to produce realistic outcomes. What this means is that big backs will feel like bigger players when going against small DBs in the open field. I know that this all sounds good and I agree because in the build that we played in February didnt have the Force Impact System. We saw a cool video about it but until I get my hands on Madden 25 again with it in there, no use in me talking about it but to explain what the developers told us and explain what they are trying to accomplish.
One of the more subtle things youll notice about the new Infinity Engine is something that EA calls contextual awareness. Contextual Awareness is not only evident when guys are getting up after the play but when a guy hurdles over someone, he may put his hand on the players shoulder or when a player spins, you may see his hand feel for the defender. With this players are also a lot more solid so that when you run into your own player you wont just fall down.

I love how they try to pass Owner Mode off as "innovation" as if people who have been playing this series for a while didnt remember it from the later versions of this game on PS2. It'll be pretty neat, but its hardly a new feature, just something that was taken out nearly a decade ago and is just now making it back in.
With the announcements of Madden NFL 25 Connected Franchise and Owner Mode, there were quite a few articles written around the web today. Below are some that were found. If you find any, please add it in the comments and we'll add it here. Some of the writers, which include Game Changers are scattered through this thread answering questions.

Incidentally, if you play as the San Francisco 49ers, your first season will be in venerable Candlestick Park, and then you will move to the newly christened Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif., meaning that venue will debut in Madden NFL 25 a year before it will in real life.
