Alright folks, with all of the Madden 24 hype getting starting, I thought it was a good time to start thinking about what classic roster I would do for M24.
Most of you know my rosters and what to expect out them, I have been making them and sharing with them the community since the option has been available.
For M23 I created 1987. It was an odd year where I only made 1 roster. The only other thing I did was rerate Soundwave's 1995 roster (all credit to Soundwave for creating the roster).
So, I have a ton of different ideas for seasons, but I wanted to know the community's thoughts as well.
Here are some years I have been thinking about.
1975- I did this roster several years back, but it is a fun year and the WFL was alive so that provides an easy way to fill out the teams that did not exist in 1975.
1984- I have never done 84, but what a great year. Marino's amazing season and the big match up with the 49ers in the Super Bowl. The Bears were on the verge of greatness as well. Also, the USFL existed which again makes the other teams easy to handle.
1993- A fun year with lots of greats in the NFL. Elway, Marino, Young, Montana, Emmitt Smith, Barry Sanders, Jerry Rice... the list goes on.
2002- Not a truly epic season for me, but fun to build with. Still, a lot of great players and the Browns made the playoffs. Dominant Buccaneers defense.
2007- The almost perfect season by the Patriots, a close playoff race in the AFC.
Other seasons I am considering:
1978- The Steelers were still super tough and the Super Bowl against the Cowboys was epic. Earl Campbell was running over defenses. Staubach, Bradshaw, Tarkenton, Fouts, Franco Harris...
1985- A season that I love because of the Bears that year. That defense was just soooo good! It is the start of the Kosar era in Cleveland, who came close to upsetting the Dolphins in the playoffs.
1988- An epic Super Bowl; 49ers and Bengals, Tom Landry's last year as the Cowboys coach, Thurman Thomas' rookie season
1999- The Browns are back. I see 99 as a transition year for several teams in the NFL. It was Steve Young's final season, Peyton Manning was quickly becoming amazing, and who can forget the Greatest Show on Turf!
As you can see, there are so many great seasons and I have made rosters for many of them in the past.
So, throw out your ideas or let me know if you like any of the years I mentioned. At this point I simply do not know what year I will go with, just looking for feedback and ideas.
Also, if you have any questions about my rosters, how I make them, ratings, etc... feel free to ask
