Game Summary

Why only passing and rushing yards? If you click on the box score, you see everything before the game is ended, it's a spoiler.

Yup, not much we can do about that... adding passing/rushing aggregations for each play seemed reasonable, but tracking every play/player stat snapshot for every play in the game was going to be way too resource intensive.

You need a bit more detail than that when watching games..3rd down percentage, sacks, enough so you can see how the game going.

While playing the games you can see this in the boxscore since the boxscore reflects the current state. But while watching replays it's not tracked on a play by play basis so there is no way to display it.

I'm in the group of Players that only watch CPU vs CPU or AI vs AI games and want to control all 32 teams. It's called GM (General Manager) mode.
We want as much information as possible while the CPU games are running especially for text games and are only interested in single player career mode. I have been playing this way for many years. Front Office Football took a wrong turn in my opinion and you are heading in the right direction. Madden 2008 PC is the perfect example of a career single player franchise experience.

I understand... but for others reading this post I didn't want them thinking this information wasn't available while playing the games. It's only unavailable when watching the overall game replay or "Watch Game".
