This does actually occur for Madden 07; I didn't notice it in my original compatibility report, but it occurs when retesting.

Bug Description

Yard lines that are farther from the camera tend to flash in and out of existence based on camera position.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Play the game, notice how yard lines "flicker" in and out of existence based on camera position 1a. It can be easier to notice the issue on higher resolution scaling

Expected Behavior

Yard lines should not flicker in and out.

This was originally noticed by MrArthur back in June 2022 (see his Madden 07 compat report from then), but I couldn't find an issue that was made regarding it.
