I'd recommend buying it as well, but a few caveats:
1) Blocking's still terrible - so you'll get burned on nano blitzes.
2) Passing's still heavily favored over running, it's a bit too hard to run the ball in my opinion (again, bad blocking hurts).
3) Franchise mode is problematic: they changed it from scouting having no impact to scouting having too much impact (I can find and draft guys in 4th-6th round who become 90 overall in two years, while I'm still paying them 350K on a seven-year rookie deal).
If you're mainly an online player, this is the most significant change in the game since it came to next-gen consoles, so it's definitely worth picking up. Just don't expect a simulation of real football.
