369 yards rushing on 14 attempts...

[rickywal]

Darren McFadden is a beast in madden. But I wouldn't have thought in a simmed game (CPU vs. CPU) he would SMASH the record for yards in a game! 14 attempts for 369 yards, 6 TDs and he also caught some passes for more yards. Thats an average of over 26 yards per carry.

I have tried (in all-pro, 6 min quarters no accel clock) to beat him and the best I got was 340 yards on nearly 30 attempts constantly using money plays (I usually try play somewhat sim and use these play sparingly) and rarely throwing.

Anyone else seeing things like this?

Haha! Pretty much.

They didn't have it perfect before but I think they may have made it worse. I know there was a lot of pressure on them from these boards to fix this and that, but I think they'd have been better off just saying that the tweaking throws things outta whack and that they need to do more work on it for 2011.

I think everyone wasn't expecting perfection out of madden 2010, just improvement.

Very true.... I just had 20 running backs over 1,000 yards.... With franchise sliders, too.

Well it is a pretty known issue. The sim stat engine is way out of wack with rushing numbers.

Only way to go is a 32 man online franchise for realistic stats

While that is a lot, this season there were 15 with 1000+ and 18 with 900+. So it doesn't bother me so much. More than one player with 2000+ is ridiculous though, I've heard that happens often.

Yeah I've heard that. But there is no way I'm going to control all 32 teams! I don't have that much time to spend.

I guess I just have to cross my fingers for 2011!
