lol no offense but i doubt the seahawks will be a popular team online. its going to be the same teams it has been the last few years:

1) patriots

2) cowboys

3) chargers

4) steelers

5) vikings

then there is sure to be new ones like the cardinals and dolphins, plus last year favourites like the giants, raiders, and eagles. the lions may even join the mix no that they have a decent qb to throw to calvin. in my opinion these will be the most seen teams online this year, especially the top five i listed.

The Patriots are so stacked!!!

1 - Pats
2 - Steelers

I'm not sure I agree with the Steelers being used a lot. The online trend seems to be the team with the most passing weapons and athletic players at the QB position will be the teams you see most. Strong defense seems to be a secondary/after thought and running game for the most part seems to be secondary to the passing game. With those thoughts in mind, I'd wager.

1) Cards - Fitz is the best WR in the game and nobody could stop him in the CD build. He even had his way with the best CB in the game Nnamdi Asomugha. With Bolden on the other side having similar abilities and break tackle ability this is going to one of if not the top team. I'm not going to stop using them though. I've used them as a secondary team in previous years. The only limit this team has for the online crowd is a QB that can move. But for those who play online that do not care about getting out of the pocket, they are going with the Cards.

2) Pats - same as above.
3) Cowboys - Romo can move. 3 good HB's. Witten is a top 2 TE. Roy Williams is decent. Look for some Wildcat, but I don't see the Wildcat making that much noise.
4) This one is a tie and it depends on how good, Hakeem Nicks and Ramses Barden get, along with Jeremy Maclin. If these three players progress ahead of schedule, look for the Giants and Eagles to be the next two teams in line. The Giants will be a force because of the Jacobs factor. Jacobs is a monster in the game and if Nicks or Barden can be used to move the ball along with Boss, they are going to be a very strong force. With the Eagles, you are going to have crazy speed with Jackson and Maclin, plus Dmac can move and you can't forget Westbrook.


After this to me the sky is the limit. These are the top 4.

[AC IS ART]

Patriots- duh...
Cardinals-Warner/Fitz/Bolden/Beanie/Cromartie
Eagles-McNabb Rocket Arm,2 Elite Speed WR's and Westbrook
Cowboys-Romo/Witten/Felix...
Steelers- Big Ben throw on the run rating is probably elite in 10'

Well didn't expect them in top five, but top eight for sure. The Bears. Come on, Jay Cutler to Devin Hester? Along with Matt Forte. That could be second or third best QB/HB Combo in the league, along with a defense that still plays exceptional in the game, expect to see The Bears having some strength in this season of Madden.

Other than speed, Hester is not a great WR in this game. And while Cutler/Forte is a good combo, there are teams with much deeper pockets at the HB position, with good WR's and good QB's. I think you are going to have to adopt a particular strategy with the Bears. Better use Olsen a lot in the passing game.

This.

The Eagles and Giants are going to be heavily used. For the same reasons listed above.
