I don't think you can. I play on advanced, no rewinds.

ANd yes it does take awhile for myskill to kick in.

MySkill for me just can't seem to achieve a proper running game for either me or the CPU. The CPU seem to run enough when suitable, i.e. if they're ahead or not too far behind, but get little success. As do I.

Not anymore.

Even if you have a good passing game, it penalizes you if you don't any TD's. To the point where I was at Rookie for Passing offense. My QB accuracy was at 65 and was hitting WR's left and right.

I'm using custom and have had decent games.

And yet, that's what Myskill is doing. It's like a little pet monkey that does your bidding for you.

All other skills are pretty acurate for me. Anyone else have this issue?

Yeah I get this issue too. Plain and simple, the running test for madden iq is not accurate to the football matches. That's why I purposely played worse on the running test to make myself all-pro.


I actually used sliders for one day, but just couldn't stick with it because it couldn't actually change the way the cpu quarterback stands, moves, and thinks. Also, I really like how the madden iq changes after every game. Like when you win, your iq goes higher and it feels like you are getting rewarded.

this is where I am at as well.....had a few games with no pasing TD's with Brodie Croyle until I played the Pats.....I could do no wrong.

Short, long, it did not matter as Brodie Croyle (yes, Brodie Croyle and his pitiful group of receivers) lit up the world champs for over 420yds and 5 TD's. I would toss bombs (as a test) into 2 coverage and Bowe would come down with it every time...

I did not even touch on rushing....KC's line is bad. Bad enough that eventually LJ had a game where he hit for a 16.7 ypc over 16 carries.......the following game (2.7ypc)

Run & pass defense is two clicks away from All-Madden now and I see robo qb all over the place and am watching my front 7 get pushed around like they are a flag football team..... Games are simply too up and down. Getting some good low scores, sure. But how I am seeing those scores is not enjoyable.

Your point is dead on. However, the Pats haven't been the world champs for a few years now...

I started a post about the Madden I.Q. but I'll put a short base of my opinion in this as well since its garnishing much attention.

I like the feature, theres nothing better to me than Auto adjusted sliders based on how well you play or don't.

The only problem I can see with the feature is, when will your running back ever have that enormous game? I mean in week 1 of your franchise, you may have it because your I.Q. hasnt been tuned by the A.I. yet, but later in the franchises will it ever be present?

You may play a weak apponent and get 140yds rushing and play another week opponent next week and get 80, and the following week get 90, then 85, then 100. All because you get punished for having a breakout performance in your 1st, 2nd, or 3rd week of the season. I believe if you run well against against a poor rushing defense you shouldnt get penalized for it next weak. But if you run well against a strong rushing D, you should.

Same goes for Passing as well.

Make sense
