Choosing a team
I've been cycling through the teams I can choose, trying to figure out what I want. Do I want a down on their luck team and try to rebuild and bring a championship? Or do i want to take a team with a good base and give them the last few pieces they need? One thing is for sure, I'm not picking the Vikings (Their cap room is only 3.5 million)

Re: Choosing a team
I always use my favorite team, the Redskins. Then I usually start with someone like the Bucs who need to rebuild a lot.
This year will be fun with how much the Skins have improved. Only real weakness year one is the line, after that its age, but I can easily fix both those through drafts.“No one is more hated than he who speaks the truth.”

Re: Choosing a team
I always go with my team as well. Honestly wish I had time to do a second one because it's hard to win with the Lions.
Would love to run the Bears, if only to trade Cutler and make Dan LeFevour into a star."There's nothing more embarrassing than to have earned the disfavor of a perceptive animal." - Michael ChabonComment

Re: Choosing a team
well mostly it's easy as we all have "our team", the Jets being mine so most of the franchises I think of doing end up being them
this year however I'm going to diverge a bit and actually go with the Broncos
my chise will be "The Tim Tebow Experiment".. I just want to see whether or not I can win a 'bowl with him.. timeframe: 4 years (after simming the 1st year of coursE)Comment

Re: Choosing a team
honestly speaking choosing a team is easy, choose your favorite team
the reason we all do it but then don't follow through on the franchise is simple..
it destroys "suspension of disbelief".. when your 'chise for example is the Jets and Mark Sanchez is lighting it up throwing 500yds a game..
and then you love that team irl and follow it and they're on a 2 game losing streak and Mark is stinking up the place
it makes it hard to pick up Madden and destroy opponents knowing how far it is from the truth
at least, I think that's the reason why.. I myself have never played my teams' franchise and I think that's the reason why I could never finish them.. it's just not real

Re: Choosing a team
I'm currently trying to help the Buccaneers. They are 2-1 as of now.
Vs. Browns: 31-17 W
@ Panthers: 25-24 L
Vs. Steelers: 34-24 WFor an enormous amount of custom covers.

Re: Choosing a team
This is a great point! Which is usually why I only play as the Steelers until the regular season starts. My suggestion is to do a fantasy draft. You get your "own" madden team, so it feels unique and like your own. Instead of doing what everyone else is doing, it actually feels like you're apart of the team, since after all you're the one who put the roster together.honestly speaking choosing a team is easy, choose your favorite team
