What happened to Drew Brees???

[therizing02]

Not sure if this is a bug or not. In year 2 of my Cowboys dynasty, right before the season starts I looked at all of the rosters and Drew Brees is no where to be found. He's not on the retired list, IR, or anyone's depth chart.

Has anyone else seen this?

Yes, I had this happen with Brees in Madden 13 as well. I was controlling the Saints and he just vanished from my roster after the first season. Dont know what causes this glitch or how to reverse it but its a bummer.

Happens with Vick frequently too. Just make up a story as to why he's not playing football anymore. No need to worry about something you can't control.

We can't control it, but the developers can. There is a reason to worry about it, because it's a pretty big issue.

How is "only 15 starting qb's" that are "starting in the nfl now in yr 7" not realistic?

I made my own list of the players who are, as long as they're healthy, are going to most likely be starting in the league in 7 years.

Robert Griffin II
Colin Kaepernick
Russell Wilson
Sam Bradford
Matthew Stafford
Aaron Rodgers
Matt Ryan
Cam Newton
Mike Glennon
EJ Manuel
Ryan Tannehill
Geno Smith
Alex Smith
Terrelle Pryor
Joe Flacco
Andy Dalton
Andrew Luck
Jake Locker

That's 18, and that's including me leaving on the iffy Jake Locker, Ryan Tannehill and Sam "I hope I can stay healthy for back-to-back Seasons" Bradford.

well most those guys are starting in my cfm.... except smith and glennon they aren't even in the game anymore. but what I was getting at is most the qb's starting now left my cfm early and there's still some that are young that are gone. I think most left mine after like the 3rd season so that's a lot of starting qb's to just up and vanish in 2 yrs.

Re: What happened to Drew Brees???

I thought they retired

Brees, Vick and few other guys vanished from my cfm

Now I know it's a bug.
Thanks for this info guys

Yeah just say he got arrested again for another dog-fighting incident

Re: What happened to Drew Brees???

in the offseason not everyone is listed in the news feed i go to transactions and it shows who retired

[ajra21]

Re: What happened to Drew Brees???

Ray Lewis has retired and returned to the game three times.

*rolleyes*

Re: What happened to Drew Brees???

Thus far Romo has retired after year 2 twice on me. I've won the Super Bowl both times so Idk if he's just go gout on top. But he's only 34.

Re: What happened to Drew Brees???

This is why I choose to play Madden 12.Very early retirements and silly comebacks after retirement.How many players are going to come back after being done for a year and then do it over again?Favre never even did this.

Re: What happened to Drew Brees???

They do not disappear

They retire 'quietly' as I call it.


Go to Transactions and set it to filter for retirements, you should see their names.

Double, these players don't show in the transaction log even if filtered. I still find it funny.
