Apparently this limitation shows up elsewhere in the game, suggesting it might be a problem of too few bits, indeed: "Peterson actually rushed for over 1,100 yards, but once again, the game stopped counting at 1,023. I'm guessing that this is because only 1,024 values can be represented by 10 binary switches in a computer system, and the game's developers (understandably) never would have guessed that another set of switches would be necessary." -- http://www.sbnation.com/2013/10/2/4784946/breaking-madden-in-which-the-eagles-defense-gets-drunk-and-gives-up http://www.sbnation.com/2013/10/2/4784946/breaking-madden-in...
