I was Playing Madden 10 today

[Wittman21]

then I got to New England, and I wanted to let Byrd play FS, but as I was goign through the roster, I saw that the Bills LT was Levi Jones, with Walker backing him up. I was curious if this happened to anyone else...I thought I missed the signing (b/c D Bell injured) but it just must have been a glitch....Would not complain if healthy

You simmed the preseason, he was likely picked up by the cpu during your sim.

Re: I was Playing Madden 10 today

Trent is awful in Madden 10. Run game is non existent. O line is horrible.

Re: I was Playing Madden 10 today

I played the first game of the season and lost by 2 touchdowns to New England. I was like "Damn, even in this freaking videogame the Patriots won't let me be in peace."

Re: I was Playing Madden 10 today

I can win online with the Bills pretty regular. Maybin is a freakin' sack master in that game though. I average about 2 a game with him. Too bad it isnt real life... oh well.

[VeggieMan14]

Re: I was Playing Madden 10 today

im 16-6 online with the bills (should be 19-3 i lagged out of 3 games i was winning) if you know how to use them they are really good... Shawn Nelson is a beast on that game i average like 150 yards a game with him and like 3 sacks with maybin haha

What playbook are you using?

[Marvelous]

Re: I was Playing Madden 10 today

Yeah the new DE moves stick (RS) is awesome & makes pwning the RT pretty easy.
-1- The LE is Maybin & that's exciting.
-2- The RT's are never as highly rated as the LT.
-3- Let Schobel be Schobel. Me playing him only hurts the team

---I noticed they dissed us this year with Speed..
-Last year T.O's speed was mid-high 90's & now it's a 89!
--And here's the two killers! Our starting CB's are both raped of their speed....Haven't they watched McKelvin & McGee leave sooo many in the dust on KR's & PR's??? They put BOTH of they're speeds in the 80's!!! That is Just total BS!
-I thought Fitzpatrick played better last year then the 68 rating they gacve him. Esp since Trent Edwards keeps getting hurt in my franchise...

----GUYS WHO STRUGGLE RUNNING THE BALL--LISTEN UP...
--READY TO GET 100 YARDS EVERY GAME WITHOUT CHEATING?
-Ready to Get Fred Jackson to get his too??
-----PUT THE SPEED BURST DOWN----!
--I realize dthis in week 2. afTER ONLY GETTING LIKE 40 YARDS ON 20 ATTEMPTS AGAINST NE!!!!!
--ENTER WEEK-2 New England fugwads! I got over 100 yards and even won the game(all-madden)
---When the speed burst is pressed-The RB has only 25%/minimal control to juke/spin or turn. Their AGILITY goes out the window and becomes void. --Without the speed button mashed & held in----Lynch can hit the hole perfectly or juke to the hole etc..With the speed held in-Lynch doesn't hit the hole with precision and ends up being to close to a defender & gets tackled..
----SO I ENCOURAGE EVERY ONE OF YOU TO TRY AND RUN WITH LYNCH & NOT USING THE SPEED BURST UNTIL HE CLEARS THE L.O.S!!!
--And i want feedback with results guys...Madden is 10x the fun now that i have a running game. It also improves win % by like 80%.. Teams go 3 & out and you hold them in check and eat up the clock... It's the way Madden is meant to be played... ATleats in year-1 of franchise. Year 2 maybe i/we can draft a good QB.. Maybe one with a 80 or higher speed...I bought the QB scouting thing & it revealed 2 players with a 85 speed. & one of them is the highest rated rookie QB from Gainsville. woot! But i fear he will be the #1 overall pick & f-that! Waaay to much cap money.. Esp since players are overpaid on our squad. ESP when you see a 79 rated Kelsay making 6 mill a year..

---I made a looooong review of Madden in another board. I think Twilight Zone? i dunno...

Re: I was Playing Madden 10 today

I just finished the regular season on my franchise where i had a fantasy draft. All I did was make a super badass O-line and put Chris Johnson behind it.

Johnson's final stats were

2,300 rushing yards
37 rushing tds

2,500 receiving yards
25 receiving tds

Oh and my dline was
Peppers - J. Williams (SD) - Stroud - J. Taylor

Bills were 16-0 obviously. All Madden difficulty. The game is a cheeseball.

Re: I was Playing Madden 10 today

i use the bills O and multiple Defense

Sounds like the real Bills.

Re: I was Playing Madden 10 today

I never use the Bills in Madden. are our white throwbacks in the game?

Yup, I simmed the preseason and they signed Jones as well. I left it as was though, because we all know just about anything was an upgrade at LT...

try using the "my skill" setting...ratchets the difficulty up much higher than madden, if you're that good. also, try using the bills players, makes it a bit tougher LOL
