Deuce generally I agree with most of the things you post, but this I have to 110% disagree with you here. Madden's current CFM isn't what Madden 05 and Madden 12 offered, but it's going to get back to that point in a few years.
Also, while 2k17's franchise is good...The Show's is pretty average honestly and has much needed work as well.
But I don't think Madden needs "atleast ten years" like you're saying.
