How’s your franchise going? Madden 24 edition

[SFNiners816]

Game 1 is in the books for my M24 Niners franchise. I usually just nuke and rebuild the Niners every year....However, this year I decided to approach it a little different and unretire one of my biggest draft crushes of the last 25 years. I traded 3 first round pick to Indy for 3 sevenths and the "rights" of Andrew Luck. I rated Luck based on his M20 rating with about 3 points of regression per category. This had him coming in with a M24 rating of 87 at the age of 34. I just feel like he's the perfect fit for the roster and it heightens my championship expectations.

As for Brock and Lance, I am still keeping them and developing them. I hope in real life either of them go off and then I will be in a position have one of them take over for an aging Luck. If not I will them have potential developed trade pieces at the QB position.

Week 1 was a fun game at Pittsburgh for Luck's return. Started kinda slow and I held a 6-0 half time led. Moody missed an XP and a FG attempt. Out of halftime, the Steelers went down and took a 7-6 but I responded quickly to take back a 12-7 led (2 pt failed). Pitt put together another methodical TD drive and converted the 2 pt to take a 15-12 led heading into the 4th. I pretty much dominated the 4th on the power of 2 td drives, 3 sacks and Huf getting his first Int.....Final score was 26-15. Luck showed very little rust...He went 18/25 for 308 and 3 Tds with zero Ints. CMC had 16 carries for 98 and added 3 catches for 30 yards. Deebo added a TD run and Aiyuk had 4 catches for 80 yards with a 45 yard TD strike.

I play on All-madden 7 minute Qtr with acc clock off....Game felt really nice. My team is pretty stacked so I really do expect at 13-14 win type season with a deep playoff baring major injuries.

This is BY FAR my favorite Madden gameplay I’ve ever experienced. I’m typically critical most years…but man, loving it. Small issues (a little too INT heavy IMO) but I’m having fun. Beat Rams 28-25, lost to Lions 33-28. Recovered an onside?? (Never happens for me) and just couldn’t get it done without timeouts. Playing Carolina tonight. Young guys like Smith-Njigba, Witherspoon, Woolen, Walker all balling. Also a fun mix of vets like Geno and Wagner. I think we’ll make playoffs, but not sure I’ll get past the best of the NFC. O line young, needs to improve.

4-1 entering week 7, decided to make a trade.

Falcons are spiraling at 2-4 and so I made a trade for Calais Campbell. He’s on a 1-year deal.

I sent 25-year old 81 Star MLB Jordan Brooks to them, he’s about to sign a new deal and we weren’t going to keep him.

Hoping this helps us get a little more pressure and beefier on interior as we make a run for a ring.

Anyone play their franchise games on the 'competitive' game style?

We started a 32 team league with 32 users...started getting things going and then woke up this morning to the entire league being deleted...so I'd say its not going great so far.

I’ve been doing a little on all madden comp setting…game feels smoother to me for some reason.
