random running jukes?? help!

hey guys im on ps3 and have been playing ncaa and recently switched to madden and have encountered an issue that hurts the game and also may possibly drive me insane. i have searched the forums for a solution but never saw this problem mentioned so i apologize if im repeating something. my problem is when running the ball my player will seemingly randomly perform these jukes that ruin where im trying to go with him and end up with broken plays. i can't figure out for the life of me how to stop it so i can consistently run a straight line when needed....does anyone know what im referring to or have any solution? i have 2 vids of it that i can upload and i can expound further on the problem once i get off my ps3 and on a real comp

It happens to me a lot also. It happens when I first hand the ball off. He'll grab the ball juke then run straight. Makes it tough to hit the hole hard. It happens most of the time. I'm playing on the ps3 also.

Are you holding left or right on the thumbstick before he gets the ball handed to him? That would cause him to cut in that direction as soon as the ball is handed to him. Other than that I don't know.

That is exactly the problem. I have found that if I wait a second after the handoff to take control of the RB, it eliminates most of those jukes.

I wish they would remove the animation from the left thumbstick and simply make it directional in control.....

I'm usually pushing forward because I run up the middle quite a bit. I'll try not pushing anywhere and see what happens.

i might be doing this ill have to go back and see but i know its not exclusive to this-i can think of a few times ive caught a deep ball or got a int with plenty of room and hit nothing but the left stick towards the endzone and turbo then had a random juke and thus allowed a tackle from behind.....ugh that pisses me off....also it happens alot when i rotate the stick left or right to up-as in turning the corner off tackle and heading upfeild

Does Madden have Sixaxis controls?

I have this problem as well. It happens almost every time right after the hand off to the RB. I can't simulate it in practice mode. So i am not sure what is causing it.
