  1. When the players walk back to the huddle in between plays they walk like robots or like they forgot to go to the bathroom before they went out on the field.
  2. In a turnaround seldom seen in the videogame industry, this series manage to go from god-awful to mediocre.
  3. [It] isn't without its flaws, and ultimately, it falls short of more robust competing products, but it is also a much-improved game with solid graphics and presentation.

    Progress is so slow in coming with this franchise it makes the Lions’ march to mediocrity look like a worst-to-first finish. [Feb 2002, p.84]

    NFL GameDay is the Detroit Lions of the league.
  6. The title is barely playable in its current form, as each new game reveals a new bug or glitch in the rules, gameplay, or presentation.

    This game is so ugly that it looks like it’s been beaten like a red-headed stepchild that managed to hit every branch on the ugly tree.
