My favorite rb is Knowshon Moreno in this year's game. For an 81 he sure breaks a ton of tackles and makes defenders look silly. Hope he's half as good in real life.

Now that you have me thinking about it, I may have to go in and start up a Patriots franchise and make a trade with someone for a great running back. Maybe Take LT for a spin in his final years just like Dillon.

Stick with Fred Taylor. Guys gonna have a solid year.

You played 09? I feel sorry for you.

You really had to post that in this thread? Really? Time to drop the agenda.

My fav was ricky williams in 03. I would trade Vick and ricky to the rams and then just run or throw to ricky or scramble all day. Now I realize this a boring style to play, but when i was like 13 it was awesome.

quick question: how do you run a two back system like the panthers or cowboys? lets say i want barber up the middle but jones to the outside. Any tips would be great. And I pick my plays from either by play type or ask madden if that changes anything.

I don't remember if they even used player names then, but I used to love playing as the Bears on John Madden Football for the SNES. All you had to call was HB Toss and then run it in the opposite direction that it was designed for. It was almost a guaranteed TD everytime.

I remember scoring over 150 points and thinking I was the greatest ever. Ahhhh, to be 15 again . . . .

Thank God we didn't have message boards back then.

Imagine the tecmo boards.

Don't know how many of you young bucks played Madden 97 but if you knew how to time your spin button you could break of some ridiculous highlight reel runs with Barry. Good times....

Who needed the spin move? With the poor pursuit logic, lack of real phsysics, and a back with good agility you could just lay off the sprint button and do a wide user spin by using the stick and make the whole D look silly. Good times [I was 13 back then and agree, breaking records was > sim]

One of the older games, let you use Legends and such. I loved using Earl Cambell, he was fast and couldn't be tackled.

If this were Tecmo Bowl I would say Bo Jackson...

But in Madden, I hate to sound like such a homer, but Brian Westbrook is a lot of fun to use. You can line him up in all kinds of crazy places where he's covered by a linebacker.
