Re: NFL Head Coach Series future

The HC development team was absorbed into the Madden Dev team. There is nobody left to make us an awesome HC game because they're all working on madden's career mode.

You'd -think- that'd give us...

Re: Building a better draft value chart

As a side note, getting into the top 5 can be done a bit easier by trading players that the other team highly values (even if you don't value them). I once traded into #1 overall using two tight ends...

Re: Building a better draft value chart

from my point of view, round 7 in general has little-to-no value, simply due to contract concerns. rounds 2-6 give me 3 year contracts, where if my guy is a diamond-in-the-rough, I've got a season to...

Re: Perfect Game Thread

Because my backup QB from 2010 wanted a starting QB's salary to play maybe a quarter or two per year (screw that), and Riley was available in the 5th round for pocket change.

Perfect Game Thread

Dig out your best screenshots (or even your notes on franchise threads, etc) and show me what you've got. I'll lead off.

So, I started season #4 with my pet project Redskins tonight. Week #1 in...

Re: Player Development

interesting. anecdotal evidence always said that cornerbacks were one of the slowest positions to develop, after tight ends, fullbacks, and kickers/punters.

I thought for sure they were slower...

Re: High POT Drafting 101

A character with three "nones" in weaknesses is 99% of the time a pro-bowl level player.

A character with one "none" in weaknesses is usually at least playable, and most of the time a solid...

Re: Knowledge from the past

My HC has a 1/5 in chemistry, yet I rarely get much heat from my players. I might get a guy who is annoyed he isn't starting, but nothing comes of it. I might get a guy complaining to the media, but...

This.

Al/Byron was on at least his 2nd username, possibly his third. he'll be back once again I'm sure.

He does provide a lot of good info, but has a habit of being very obstinate and...

Re: Game is Just Too Easy

The game isn't that easy if you suck at it. I can attest to that.

Just a side topic note...

I've got a fantastic DB coach on my redskins team. I mean fantastic. mostly potential 5, with a few potential 4, and that's without superb strategist.

Re: Game is Just Too Easy

I'm a big fan of ebongreen's sliders. they're not realistic, but they're fun. however, if you match them with a good passing playbook and the vertical passing or spread philosophies, then have your...

Re: Most difficult teams to turn around

At this point, I'm thinking that how hard your game is going to be comes down to:

1. playbook/philosophy
2. sliders
3. how you choose to play your playbook (unlearned vs mastered, etc)
4. draft...

Re: Most difficult teams to turn around

In my current franchise the Raiders have Run DMC and Joe Kain. it's pretty hard not to accidentally win a few games with those two, and the raiders actually were the first team to beat me (it's since...
