Tackles/Sacks not counting on “fall forward” animations

Summarize your bug When a “fall forward” animation occurs, the tackles and sacks are not recorded in the statistics. Additionally, the animations seem to happen at an abnormally high rate since the last patch and occur in situations when it makes no sense for a player to fall forward. This makes it nearly impossible to progress my defensive players, as most of their stats are not being recorded. For me,, I consider franchise to be unplayable until the issue is fixed.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Check the stats after any fall forward animation occurs.
What happens when the bug occurs? Stats are not recorded properly.
What do you expect to see? Tackles and sacks to be recorded correctly and for the tackle animations to make sense contextually.

Summarize your bug Any time a tackle occurs with a “fall forward” animation, the tackle is not counted in the statistics. Additionally, these animations seem to happen at an abnormally high rate since the last patch and occur on hits that should never allow the offensive player to fall forward.This is extremely frustrating when trying to progress defensive franchise players, as their stats are not being recorded. This issue completely kills my desire to continue playing until it’s fixed.
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Check the stats after the fall forward animations occur.
What happens when the bug occurs? No stats are recorded.
What do you expect to see? A fix that allows stats to be recorded correctly again and that makes the tackle animations make sense contextually.

    The new update didn't fix it... I reinstalled to see if it wouldn't and have atleast 10 clips of it still happening. So I uninstalled again. I buy because I love football and because EA stopped making NCAA.
  • I've been experiencing the same issue and I honestly feel that it's a "subtle" bug because players may not realize that the falling forward for 3 yards 90% of plays is actually a bug - players may think its part of the game's intended design.  I think that lends to why there isn't A TON more of players freaking out about this bug.

    Until this bug, I was playing franchise mode during a majority of my free time.  I truly love franchise mode and as long as Madden features it, I imagine I'll be buying all of the next Madden titles....however this bug truly is game-breaking. Defensive players are now doomed to never increase their development traits since their tackles/sacks aren't being recorded and these stats are exclusively how the in game players are supposed to increase in skill year to year.  

    I sincerely hope and pray that EA is taking the bug seriously.  I really would enjoy getting the chance to continue my franchises (particularly my single-player franchise which got half-way thru its 7th season before I had to stop playing due to the glitch) and my respect for EA as a company would be greatly bolstered by a prompt response to this serious bug.
