Madden Coaching Legacy?
I'm not sure about you but franchise gets boring for me because I'm playing with the same team over and over again. I finished rebuilding the Rams, winning the Super Bowl in year 4, but I can't change teams. I haven't got past 5 win with the Lions in four years, so you'd think I'd be fired. I just took the Browns to 12-4 in my second year. Thing is, I think I'd be able to get a better job, since I don't like the Browns very much, but I can't
Well I've figured out a way to change that.
First what you do is when you start the franchise is check mark all the teams and control all of them. Then what you do is set all Roster Management to CPU. After your done with that start your franchise, choose your team, and then go to Franchise Settings (I think that's what it is called). Then find your team and set all Roster Management to User. Now you control every single aspect of your team, and the CPU does everything for their team (except trading). Now when you rebuild your team, go to another sorry loser. If you failed rebuilding one team, get fired, and try another. If you in one season too a lowly team and brough them to the playoffs, go ahead and leave for a better job.
Here's when you should get fired IMO:
1. If you are controlling a bottom 8 team: Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Raiders, Lions, Rams, Buccaneers, and the Redskins. If after 3 seasons you fail to get above 7 wins, fire yourself.
2. If you are controlling a middle-tier team: Not the Patriots, Colts, Steelers, Ravens, Chargers, Giants, Cowboys (they consider themselves a top team), and Eagles. If you fail to get above 7 wins after 2 seasons, fire yourselves. If you fail to make the playoffs in 3 years, fire yourself. If you ever get below 3 wins, fire yourself.
3. If you are controlling a top-tier team and you fail to make the playoffs your first year, fire yourself. If you don't make playoffs 2 out of your first 3 years, fire yourself. If you ever get below 6 wins, fire yourself.
4. If you ever go 0-16 fire yourself.
5. If you get fired you are only allowed to go to a bottom feeder in the league. They must have finished last in their division and not have more than 6 wins.
---------------------
The only downside of this is having to trade for other teams but it isn't that difficult. Heck, I'll most likely be the GM of every team and play as just my team to make the rosters realistic. Since now you can rip off teams with trades, you must only do the trade if the other team's interest is high. Even then make sure it is fair.
That is all. Hope this information is useful for you.
