I think I figured it out. Just quit it. Fingers crossed

This happened to me 2 months ago so I went away from Madden. Just started a new franchise tonight and played the most epic game and of course it takes me back to the main menu for the entire game and not the franchise menu. This is killing me. What do you mean close out of madden completely? I have xbox one so does that mean I should have my Xbox on energy saving mode so madden has to fully start up every time? Someone please help.

Are you able to connect online? I would always recommend playing an online CFM even if solo. That way you have access to any tuning updates and can access your league online. It also sims and advances much quicker. I know that doesn't help your current situation but for future CFMs and other who may be wondering I think online is always the best option if possible.

So I had it working because when the game starts up it will say "signing in to ea servers". You then hit "cancel" so that you're not signed in to the servers. This worked for 5 games but now I have the problem again.

Online isn't an option for me. I have to control 32 teams.

To close out of the game completly, go to the xbox one home screen, hightlight the madden game in the main window, hit the menu key on the controller. This will bring up a window that has exit game as a choice.
I have not had the problem you are speaking of, but I always do this when I am done playing. To me, it always seems like a good idea to shutdown all programs before closing out the system (I'm an old microsoft user, habits die hard)
