    Do you ever wish you weren't as good at Madden as you are?

    I'm far from being a really good player, but I don't know one person in real life that can even give me a competitive game at this point. Most people are so basic and literally just pick plays and runs them without adjusting defensively or offensively. They're so easy to pick apart and stop. I'm 41-10 online and have some GREAT competitive games. However, I do miss the excitement of a tight game sitting together in the same room with someone I know.

    My point is that I have to almost dumb down my level of play when playing with friends. Otherwise I destroy them and can easily exploit them. Maybe I just need to find new friends.

    I know man my roommate likes to play madden but knows nothing about the game. He has to be the patriots and I have to be the Browns or a team really underrated. Also he has to play on Pro and I usually play on All-Pro to make it competitive.

        I've been playing people where I'll let my friend play on Pro, or All-Pro depending on their skill level while I play on All-Madden, and then I'll often play with a team I haven't played with before that is low-rated like the Titans, or Panthers, or whatever... if you adjust it right you can get competitive games and it can still be fun for both people.

            Play one-handed.

              Just play with your second string for both offense and defense.

                thats funny that u mention this cuz i feel the same way in the online games to do play (halo and call of duty) but for some reason in sports games i have never got into playing online...kinda wish i did but im sure behind the 8ball now to even bother...

                my advice to you is just see how bad you can beat people or else you will start losing games that u shouldnt just b/c u let the opponent stay in the game..

                  I get messages from rage quitters calling me censored names because I choose run plays, take too long choosing plays, playing with the Saints, etc.

                  I rarely play online but I'd say record is 11-4 of games that were actually completed. In every Madden.

                  Call me names for being an offline gamer.

                    Well I have the luxury of having a good group of friends who can all play.. We all been playing the Madden since it first dropped on sega so when we get together or play an offline franchise(sucks we can't do it this year) it's always competitive..

                      I like knowing more than my competition.
