How is your franchise going? Madden 18

Re: How is your franchise going? Madden 18

That's not a glitch. That's their version of freezing the kicker. I'm assuming the CPU called a timeout right before you attempted the field goal? When they do that right before a game winning field goal that animation happens where the kicking meter disappears while the icon is on the downswing. You have to just time it by feel.

No idea why it showed the field goal as being a -91 yard field goal attempt, but everything else you described is what is programmed into the gameplay.

Im 5-5 hoping to win out the rest of my games and go 11-5, line ****ed me all year so I Blame them, we have the number 1 defense but Rodgers can barely get time to do much because of how soft the line is.

Purging linemen in the upcoming draft.

Re: How is your franchise going? Madden 18

AI tried to screw me so many times in my game against Pitt. I was up 14-10 and threw a bomb to my rookie WR. He had more than a step on the DB and as the ball was in the air, the DB magically closes the gap. I made an amazing catch but shouldn't have had to. Down at the 1. Of course, after 2 stuffs I get called for holding. Moved back 10 yards. I dropped back to pass and saw a lane to take off. I get to the 1 and my QB takes a routine hit. Fumbles into the endzone and it's recovered by the Steelers. I also got an illegal touching penalty which I thought was funny but still annoying. I NEVER see that called. Those were my 2 chances to go up 21-10. Both nullified.

I didn't let the BS make me play scared. Stuck to my gameplan and eventually won 34-24. We're now sitting at 6-5, one game back of Baltimore for first place. Steelers (5-5-1) have now lost 4 in a row. Ouch. It's been a tough year for us despite the record. Despite all the weapons, I've thrown 20 INTs with my rookie QB already...to just 13 TD. I'm completing 66% of my passes but those INTs are killers. Still have very high hopes for him. Mixon has 717 yards on 126 carries and 7 rushing TDs to go along with 61 catches (leads team), 477 yards and 3 TDs. Gotta be more consistent on offense if we wanna go anywhere.

Bro holy **** we beat Pitt 52-21 and ty ran for 224 on 31 carries and 4tds. Rodgers had 2 TDs for 250+, point of attack was running but damn.

Nice. I hate playing Pitt with their insane linebackers. I feel like Bud Dupree gets at least 3 sacks on me every time we play.

Re: How is your franchise going? Madden 18

So.... Ty hit 1000 and leads in rushing TDs. Love it , Switzer hit 875 yards on the season so I'm fine with letting Cobb go and adding him.

First defeat of the season came in overtime at San Diego who saw us off 33-27 in week 8, after the bye week we recovered to beat Tennessee 38-24 away from home. Currently 8-1 on the season which is the second best record in the NFL behind the impressive 9-0 Redskins.

The Browns seem to have turned a corner and are 6-3 on the season! Would be great to see them make the play offs.

Wow, now that is a dramatic way to end the game, that's wild how they are so much better on Madden, and failed to win at all this season in real life lol

Re: How is your franchise going? Madden 18

lol. If that were the real life Browns, they'd lose their final 3 games and miss the playoffs somehow. I was about to say a 61 yarder is cheap, then I remembered I made a 63 yarder with Zane Gonzalez (Browns kicker). I'd still rage if I lost like that.

How'd it go?

I think I'm gonna start a new franchise. I just downloaded a roster with the brace for hits thing fixed for everybody. Didn't even know that was possible to share. Now I might actually hop on defense for some crucial plays. Dolphins could be fun.

Decided to just be the Titans. Madden is such BS sometimes. I was down 17-6 against Oakland and threw a swing pass to Murray and ran about 20 yards untouched. 2 Raider DBs came out of nowhere, I dove into the endzone and fumbled right into one of their hands lol. That wound up costing me the game. It feels like the dive fumble thing has been in these games for 20 years.

PS4 roster or Xbox 1? Care to share the name of the repaired roster? I can't seem to find it.

I got you man.

I dl'ed these and everything is going smoothly. Just keep in mind he also took away the high motor trait from everyone except for D-linemen. I'm not sure what that does exactly, but you can change it back if you want. Cover Ball thing is fixed for all backs and receivers.

*PS4 btw

Re: How is your franchise going? Madden 18

I went into week 17 playing at home against the Browns (who are now pretty good) knowing that a win clinched the NFC South. I fell behind early when Goff threw 2 first quarter INT's. I was down 31-13 at halftime but almost rallied back. I got the ball with about 1:40 left on my own 20 down 38-36. Picked up a couple first downs to get to around midfield with just under a minute to go, but then couldn't move it any farther and lost. I finished 9-7, missed out on winning the division, and also missed out on the wild card.

This was the 2022 season. Jacksonville has been in 4 straight Super Bowls and has won the last 3. Just thought that was interesting.

Re: How is your franchise going? Madden 18

You're the Saints right? What ever happened with Brees? In every franchise I've done so far, he leaves NO after the first year and signs somewhere weird. Last two I've seen were LA (Rams) and Tampa Bay. He started over Goff and Winston. That annoys me a bit.
