More realistic ball physics (punts never bounce back etc.)
Less Superhuman linebackers.
Better touch passes.
Better coverage from corners, playing the ball intelligently not just performing a WR catch animation when that'll be futile and they should be trying to knock it down or even play the man.
Better commentary, a lot more dialogue could do with being recorded so that they have a large base to choose from. That way it won't be completely repetitive.
ESPN halftime show.
Superstar mode needs a complete overhaul.
Backshoulder throws.
More animations across the board always helps.
The ability to instantly restart any Madden Moment when you want.
TD Celebrations. Lots of them. I mean why not? Aaron rodgers should occasionally do his championship belt maybe if its a critical TD. Simple more generic ones, that chest bumps, pointing to the sky and so on.
More weather fluctuation and more accurate weather. It was bugged as hell in franchise mode this year.
Improved graphics (as always).
These are the bullet points that I think are a "must." A few things I think they should add:
Currently, defenders and receivers play the ball as if they are alone. A receiver needs to realize that a corner it jumping for the ball so when I hit Y/Triangle my guy doesn't try to catch it over his shoulder and making it an easy interception
the ability to reach that ball out when getting tackled. It is so frustrating getting tackled half a yard short of a TD/first down when it is clear your player could have easily reached the ball out and got the first/TD
Zone coverage. Maybe it is me, but the CPU picks my zone coverage apart, and I can't complete a pass against it.
Short throws to the outside. I feel like curl routes and screens to a receiver on the outside is usually a pick/incomplete.
The game needs to give feedback as to whether it was the human player's error, a good play by the opposition, or bad player ratings when a bad play happens. This is my biggest problem. I don't know how to get better because I don't know if it is my fault or my player's fault for bad play.
Make it more "balanced." I've always been able to coast by on one aspect of my team (ex: rush offense or pass defense) and get far in the play offs in franchise mode. Make it so I need a good complete team to do well.
