    Madden 11 offline franchise cap bug?

    I'm totally at a loss as to what's happened in the offseason for my offline Xbox team. I am currently starting year 5. I put together a spreadsheet trying to figure it out... on paper, my total cap hit is $149 million. When I go to resign players, it reports it as $263 million and I'm in the negative about $49? million. This $263 million number is about $100 million higher than my salaries last year.

    Over the course of the year I have not traded any players who had a bonus, nor have I cut any.... actually I haven't done either over the entire course of my franchise. I have on occasion signed a couple of free agents on pure 1-year salary contracts without a bonus to trade for draft picks.

    Is there any other reason why my salary cap would suddenly jump so high? Is this some sort of a bug and if so is there a fix?

    Also, another weird thing did happen between years 2-3.. somehow Aaron Rodger's contract was extended but I had that option set to player control. He went from 1 year left on his contract to 7...

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Did you maybe hire a new head coach? It resets all the franchise control options to CPU, might be an explanation.
    You gotta have Hope! (My Minnesota Vikings franchise)

    After an incredible 2012 season ends with a Super Bowl win, Hope Turner and her Vikings are trying to prove that their performance was more than just a one-shot.

        That's the problem, I haven't done that many resigns. I've traded away a couple players who were at zero left on their contracts, I've let some go to free agency. I just can't see anywhere that I've taken a cap penalty so wondering now if it's some sort of bug.

        Re the head coach change prompting options to change... Didn't know that, it probably explains rodgers being resigned by the CPU.
