No you don't, there's probably several magical disks.
So now it's time for the sliders that MAY OR MAY NOT help somebody. Remember that sliders are personal depending on your playing style. Also, Madden is a wacky game cause things change from game to game (thank God for it!). So playing one quarter, one game or two games probably isn't enough to make any judgements. And judgements don't come in the form of "I feel this or that", they come best in the form of stats.

I don't know if this thread is allowed to become a slider thread cause there's already a forum for that. But there we go. One thing that I've noticed when I see sliders from others is I tend to think "that slider can't be at that and this slider can't be at that". Sometimes it's true but remember that that slider's value is based on some other slider also having a different value.
I'll answer any questions or comments and I can go into more detail about passing strategy etc. There's others too that feel the same way about the game as I do so they'll probably help too. But I guess these sliders are posted more for the problems with the CPU turning the ball over too much.
Like Squint said, don't look to argue. We're here to discuss and I have zero interest in answering hate posts. Keep an open mind and you might have a better Madden on your hands.
