Superstar Abilities & Press Coverage Issues in Madden 26

At first in Madden 26, we didn’t have any Superstar abilities at all. Now that they’re in, I feel like they’re really inconsistent. On top of that, I’m losing almost every press attempt, even with 99 Press and Press Elite Gold. Is anyone else running into this?

  • Thought I was the only one... my Superstar CB has 96 rated Press, along with Press Elite silver, and I literally lose EVERY press battle, no matter the WR I match up against. Makes no sense at all

    Ive Written about this a few times here and CFB ive noticed even with 99 press and gold and man to man gold and 99 change of direction , that to things happen alot one the press wont do anything and the guy blows right pass me while im pressing air so the press wont engage or something , and on any weird cut even if i win the press battle my guy seems to slip like he is on ice.  the only time it works like90% of the time is when my Xfactor bottleneck is active then ill just toss wr to the floor before they can come off the line . but another thing is i notice the ai wont get any call on them . like block to the back or interference but if i win the press and get on the inside the ai will just force the wr to slam into me and cause a illegal contact every time. its way to easy for me to get that call on me even though i won the inside

  • This is happening to me right now Im playing with 94 press and press elite on bronze but can't get any XP towards it because I lose EVERY man press attempt. I thought I would be able to at least press Kyle Juszczyk but nope. Also, I'm rarely getting press animations. Please fix this

  • gold honorary receiver is broken as well! I’ve had more deflections (dropped INTs) and I’m never using the swat button!

    man im starting to feel stats are broken there is no way slow **bleep** guys are out running me in the press even after i beat them. im starting to think either stats are broken or the game is purposely screwing my stats over during games it wants to win, i created my self in franchise mode i made a corner with 99 everything and i was still getting beat by some slower guys when i felt the game outcome was for the cpu to win
