I don't say that they couldn't improve it with DLC but I don't think that the franchise would evolve as much that way. Having a version every year forces EA to get the game better all the time, more so than with DLC.
Isn't that backwards though?

If you gave them 2 years in between release to really focus on the gameplay and improving the graphics engine. Instead of forcing them pretty much into this cyclical 12 month cycle. Where Madden 11 is out today and sure started work on Madden 12 already.

And holy cow at you coming out of lurker status haha
