As standard in Madden 24, there are instances that are unrealistic, like much rarer penalties or increased amounts of injury. Thankfully, though, these can be canceled out by adjusting the settings.

The major changes here are to the quarterback’s passing ability, which results in more realistic completion percentages, and in the accuracy of punts and kicks, which require more focus rather than the usual approach of Field Goals being easy.

Penalties are fairly rare usually in Madden 24, unless you do something obvious, so these have also been increased to produce more regular penalties like you would see in an NFL game.
