I played the same divisions in year 1 and three, i heard after three years it gets better.

Happens in real life. Broncos have played Patriots every year since 2006

The scheduling is broken in CCM. But after year 3 it does seem to correct itself. If you were the division leader 3 years in a row and so were the Bucs then it would be possible for you to play them 3 years in a row. Think back to when the Colts-Pats played almost every year during regular season. Some of it does come down to the TV deals. They want the Brady-Manning matchup because it pulls in big numbers. Here is how the NFL does the scheduling. They do try and limit the long homestands and road trips but 3 games stretchs are not completely out of the norm. The Raiders are on a 3-game home stretch now.

• Each team plays home and away against its three division opponents, which accounts for six games on the schedule.
• Each team plays four teams from another division within its conference on a rotating three-year cycle, which accounts for four more games.
• Each team plays four teams from a division in the other conference on a rotating four-year cycle, which accounts for another four games.
• Each team plays two intraconference games based on the prior year's standings. For example, the first-place team in a division will play against the first-place team from another division within the same conference. The second place team in a division will play against the second-place team from another division within the same conference, etc...

They have played a lot but this is not true. Didn't play in 2007 or 2010.

Yeah it is messed up. I even won the super bowl one time and i only had 1 prime time game the following season, which didnt make sense. But its been like that in every madden game, where you would have 4 home games and then like 5 away games in a row

I know its not that big of a deal compared to others because not everyone plays preseason, but it bugs me when they schedule a division opponent in the preseason. Its happened to me every year after the first year.

At least in previous Maddens you could start the season and the schedule would change and you could get a good one.

But in this year the schedule is before the draft and even coming back it's always the same.
