Tips for using the Raiders in Madden 09

[SoHi23]

Does anyone have any tips for using the raiders in Madden. The raiders haven't been the same since the roster updates, so any help is greatly apprciated.

Depends...what are you struggling with? because their defense ( or atleast to me and how i use them) is beasty

Place this amazing guy named Darrick Brown as your #2 CB. Him and Asomugha will lock down the outside allowing you to bring pressure..

Offensively I always liked a west coast style game with the Raiders. Run McFadden and Fargas and keep basic short passes for Russell. The Seattle playbook's Near/Far are great for this team.

Don't bother.... your strengths are your cornerbacks and man coverage is broken in 09 so you don't really have any strengths.

DMC is good on it but run blocking is broken as is running in general on any level above "******".

the raiders have a lot of talent. and they usually do every year.
So , you can do well with them.

Madden (or any other video game) cannot replicate the poor coaching, and non-existent upper management, which is why they suk so freakin bad.

So, within the Madden world they are a fun team to use actually, and very popular.
