When have coaches in Madden ever had an impact?

I know that generally speaking this is not the most pro-MUT site, and I haven’t played MUT since 15. However, I liked the idea of chemistry and coach chemistry/boosts. Would be cool to see a coach like Sean Peyton add +3 to Deep Acc, or BB add +3 to DEF AWR. That’s a way coaches could impact teams. Not sure if that’s the real point of this thread, and of course it would always be nicer with coordinators but that’s a whole different story.......

Agreed. Madden 12 had coordinators that each had his own specific player position boosting traits assigned to him. While it only had a minimal impact, it did actually make somewhat of a difference. I was impressed that this feature wasn't simply a gimmick and was actually thought through to the point of it adding a bit of immersion to franchise mode.

Lol, Madden is a garbage game. Every team feels the exact same.

More concerned on how EA will affect Madden in 2020.

Just like playbooks and schemes nevers in matter. CPU calls play the same way essentially(outside of run/pass%) and "makes adjustments" the same regardless of coach or team.

I foresee many bans coming from responses to this post lol.

I will say this...as constructively as possible without being condescending upon the devs as best as possible.

until madden overhauls playbooks and schemes (not using the same plays over and over and just calling them different names like zona cross, texans cross, packers cross etc etc)

until madden gets coaching schemes and playbooks fully working where we dont have cpu spamming verts or sticks all the time.

until madden gets actual coaching adjustments to us available in the game besides tackling and coverage and catching...im talking real adjustments that coaches make in the game.

until madden gets coordinators and assistants in the game (real or fake at this point) that have a real impact on your team

until madden gets a "coaching carousel" in the offseason and midseason firings

Until madden brings in pretty much every single aspect of head coach 09 into their franchise mode..


coaching will continue to unfortunately have 0 impact and mean nothing in the game, whether its for the user or the cpu.



they have the tools available. they have the code written from head coach. import it and make some fine tunes and tweaks and honestly the sim community will be so happy.

give us the tools to tweak things and help us find our own enjoyable franchise experience that can cater to different desires.

please clint, someone...anyone...give us head coach 09 in our franchise.
