I am curious to know what the PDS does that FBPro 98 did not do.

Seems like it is more like Madden a few year back.The fact that you can draw lines and jiggles for movement does not mean much if the lack of logic is there.

Guess this type action is being looked into ;but NOT short term.
Probably will hurt SALES short term.

It doesn't do some defensive pass coverage options well yet, but everything esle is just as good. I have had much better success with the PDS than I ever did with FBPro. To compare it to just drawing lines and not much else is ridiculous, you must not own the game. [:-]

The play editor is good and can get better with bug fixes and a few simple pass defensive options added. I have gotten simple post plays to work that never did in FBPro.

I did, not sure what you are questioning. You said "The fact that you can draw lines and jiggles for movement does not mean much if the lack of logic is there". That sounded ridiculous to me, comparing it to simply "drawing lines and jiggles" so I replied.

It does have logic options and they work on offense but there are some admitted logic bugs on defense, still way more than simple line drawing for designing plays.

Hope I didn't offend you, just that statement of yours seemed a bit harsh and unnecessary.
