"Madden Passing" Hack
The arrow passing system has been disabled. The only remnant left of it is the icon showing that a receiver is off screen down the field. You can throw to any skill player any time you wish by using their assigned button. This passing system neutralizes the speed of a MAN defender because he can't be downfield and covering checkdowns at the same time.

Here are the button mappings on the NES version:

HB=Select, FB=Start, WR1=B, WR2=A, and the TE=A+B

 

Basically, bring COM passing to MAN vs MAN games. Great hack!

I love this hack. We are working with xplozv to get icons over the wr heads. We have all the needed coding, all we have to do is figure out how to recode it so we can have icons over all the heads. Right now its just coded so one can have it.

I'm mixed about it. While i certainly like madden style passing, I've always felt like it was a fair trade off for the grapple to make you lose track of your receiver as well. Without the scramble I hope it doesn't unbalance the passing game too much. The blitz plays in particular feel like they'd suffer
