Pick my CFM Team

[cookieusa66]

I always like to pick a rebuild or someone that will be a challenge to play with in CFM. I am a die hard bengals fan but I am so sick of fixing the bengals, though the last few years have been pretty good. You guys pick the team. Whomever is mentioned the most will be my team choice. Thanks for helping out.

You should probably go with the Browns since I would bet that would be the popular choice.

Re: Pick my CFM Team

patriots, sim till Brady retires (1 or 2 seasons) and start new again. Maybe keep Mallett or build Garropolo or your own guy and see if you can keep them as a dominant franchise or see if you bulid them to the ground lol. Idk figured id give a different answer than most like browns, jags, bucs etc.

I just used yahoo sports standings for assigning a number 1-32 and used a random number generator to pick the team for my online CCM.

Re: Pick my CFM Team

I'm a Saints fan, but I'm playing with the Rams this year (Saints would be too easy to win with). Rams aren't a HUGE rebuilding job. One of the best, if not the best D-line in the NFL. Playing as Robert Quinn (19 sacks last year) who is a beast would be fun. Their DT Michael Brockers is a beast. They drafted another rookie DT beast in Aaron Donald who could start your second year along side Brockers, and bring back the vaunted "Fearsome Foursome" type D-line. Would be fun..

They have okay LBs. Secondary needs work, but you have a okay SS already. O-line will get better, but you may need to draft (Jake Long is getting older, plays LT this year) a LG if you move Greg Robinson to the LT spot in the future. Draft another good wide receiver to build upon their current corps that they already have and those WRs aren't too shabby. Kenny Britt, speedster Tavon Austin (96 spd, 97 acc), and Brain Quick are good enough.. I can't recall what Stedman Bailey or Austin Pettis is rated. Their second year running back Zac Stacy is a beast as well. He has 87 speed, 93 acceleration, and 91 trucking ability. He missed 5 games last year and probably would've put up close to equal numbers yardage-wise as Eddie Lacey had he played those 5 games. Really good young back. I'd used rookie Tre Mason for kickoff returns with Tavon Austin as punt returner, obviously.

Basically, in my opinion, you have about 1, 2 or 3 years in rebuilding and progressing young talent to reach and win a Superbowl all the while having the challenge of playing in the NFC West with all those great defenses. I'd say in your first draft look into CB, FS, WR, LG your first year. Then a Will LB your second year. You'll have a pretty good rookie in E.J. Gaines (hometown Mizzou boy) at CB you can develop. Rookie Lamarcus Joyner another CB/SS/FS hybrid that played for FSU you can put him in the nickel CB spot which is most likely his natural position in the NFL. I plan on trying to get SS Matt Elam from the Ravens somehow through trade. That would leave maybe 1 CB and a better FS for a top D all around. Elam was a hard hitting beast at Florida and I just like his style of play.

Also, I believe they only have 3 players currently on their starting roster that are 30 or older. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong. They are pretty young. Anyway, that's my plan for the Rams. As you can tell I have already kind of gameplanned my CFM around the Rams and I just think it's fun team to turn into a contender. Playing in the NFC West will make it a challenge as well, just not the building up of the team.

You also have the Raiders, Jags, Bills, or I hate to say this.. the Cowboys. lol.. you'll need to rebuild that defense and find another QB if Romo retires in year 1 or 2. As the Cowboys you can go owner mode and get Jerry Jones out of there.. then maybe they'll win something again. :P

Also the Texans, good D, but need a rebuild on O.

BTW, ya'll got a great RB in Jeremy Hill. I can't wait to see what he does in the NFL on a regular basis in Cincy.

Re: Pick my CFM Team

Now that Sam Bradford is out for year again, the QB situation for them in Madden would be an interesting situation. You have 34 year old Shaun Hill, but how long before he retires. You will need to figure out either a trade for another, younger QB with favorable stats, or trade up in the draft for a QB that can start right away. The Rams are fairly young and with their D are built to win now after a few more pieces are added, so there is another reason to pick the Rams. I feel so bad for Bradford, just sucks, but Shaun Hill is the man for this year though.

Titans - You can do anything you want. Completely revamp the offense for sure.

Chargers - Plenty of freedom to make changes. The powder blue unis are the bomb.

Cowboys - I always thought they would be fun. Good division matchups.

Re: Pick my CFM Team

The Chargers have been rebuilding for 20 years.

Re: Pick my CFM Team

Make that another for the Titans. They could use some building up, and it would be fun to groom Mettenberger into the new starter, in my opinion. His throwing accuracy numbers are already nearly the same as Locker's, plus he has better Deep Throw Accuracy. He's not mobile AT ALL though.. pure pocket passer.

Re: Pick my CFM Team

Da Raiders They got Carr to build with from ground up alot of good older players Tuck,Woodley, MJD , James Jones- so you will have to build from the young talent Mack, Gabe. Man its almost time

Get the vikings to win a super bowl.

Re: Pick my CFM Team

I would go with Arizona cardinals. You got a pretty good secondary and a good defense of line with Campbell, Darnell, Dan Williams. The linebacker core is less then average and of course still looking for a franchise QB. Running back you have an explosive Andre Ellington and wide receivers are pretty stacked in my opinion

No doubt about a pretty good secondary.. I think playing as Tyrann Mathieu with the D cam would be a lot of fun.. see if you can ballhawk as well as he can while user-controlling him.

Re: Pick my CFM Team

Lifelong Patriots fan but I hate them using in the game because they are too good. I only really play CFM so I sim a season and pick a team that finished under 6 wins. Although this year I am leaning towards the Raiders, Rams, Titans and Jets.
