    Madden 21 is horrible

    Posted: 15 Mar 2021 02:02 PM PDT

    The play of the game is horrible I was on next gen the and for fun I threw it to tyreek and he got chased down by a damn linebacker like Ea what the hell is this man come on they need to fix the overall gameplay and franchise mode which they said was going to be a big update in Madden 22 lets sit back and be disappointed once again. They keep putting their head into the damn clouds of MUT worried about money so much they completely dropped almost everything else other than somewhat the yard which is pretty fun when you play against your friends I'll give them that but other than the constant glitches and horrible execution of gameplay this game is ass

    [XB1] SND Recruiting Ahead of Off-Season

    Posted: 15 Mar 2021 09:01 PM PDT

    Our (XB1) league, SND, is openly recruiting users for season 4 and onward. I made our network of leagues shortly after taking ownership of the r/CFMmadden sub in M16, both of which share the same Discord server to help maintain a sense of community and continuity.

    We are nearing the off-season, and a few of the available teams are prepped to have great picks in the next draft.

    Joining now would land you both a current team and priority queue for team selection in Madden 22!

    This league consists of a strong core user base (many of which have been playing together since Madden 16). If you're looking for a stable Madden league, we are one to consider as we are entering our 5th year together. ALL skill levels are welcome - we do not care a bit!

    We have a fully operational DL page, which is fully integrated into our Discord server with several useful bot commands.

    https://www.daddyleagues.com/snd21

    The difficulty is set at All-Pro (w/ sliders), 7 minute Qs, 25 accel clock, and NO CUSTOM PLAY BOOKS. Advance is every 48 hours. We are looking for good owners that play sim style and know how to act and be respectful and friendly within the league. Immature behavior/name-calling/offensive comments are NOT tolerated.

    We use Discord for scheduling purposes, so it is mandatory that you have the app and use it consistently to schedule games with your opponent each week. Streaming games on Mixer/Twitch is necessary.

    Comment or PM me if interested in any of these open teams:

    Check out more here: https://www.daddyleagues.com/snd21

    Thank you!

    Franchise cheat question

    Posted: 15 Mar 2021 09:57 PM PDT

    Ok so me and my 2 brothers play franchise mode... one is completely competitive to the point he will do questionable trades/play glitches and what not. We just accept this.... however a new one popped up.

    We auto simed 10 years ahead to eliminate things like the a 95 overall for peanuts so he would have to work for it with the new update and not know the players

    He is commissioner.. as are we all to force advance incase someone forgets.

    Here is the question... he had a rookie back who got his dev trait to star/superstar... however he also went from 94 speed to 96 speed... currently fastest back in the league

    Can speed go up? Or did he edit... the transaction shows he edited the player and "apparently" he changed jersey number and the look ... not buying it ... thoughts??

    Top Ten Teams in Madden 21 Franchise Mode

    Posted: 15 Mar 2021 05:03 PM PDT

    If you still haven't chosen your franchise team in Madden 21, don't fret, as I have compiled the top 10 franchise mode teams for Madden 21 for you. The data was derived from breakdowns of each piece of the team, and then compiled to deliver the best teams for franchise ,ode are.

    10. Indianapolis Colts

    Offensive Rating: 83

    Defensive Rating: 77

    Overall Rating: 80

    The Good: A young team at 6th in the YPI, the Colts have a solid long term outlook. The 2nd highest cap space will allow an owner to fill in gaps around the team as they need to in order to offset the youth. While not very highly rated as a unit, their offensive weapons are the 5th ranked in athleticism. One of the best offensive lines in the game, the Colts have both the 4th ranked passing and run blocking units.

    The Bad: Phillip Rivers is not the answer in Indy as he checks in at 30th on the adjusted quarterback rankings. The defense is below average in coverage, and league average in run defense, but what makes the situation worse is their 28th rank in athleticism. 22nd in offensive weapon rankings, they aren't an elite group but not the worst either.

    The Bottom Line: The Colts are a solid young team that has a bright future. Some decisions need to be made on T.Y. Hilton and Ryan Kelly, but even if both are retained there is plenty of cap space to keep building the team with. The offensive weapons provide some upside in terms of athleticism that make you think they can eventually grow into an electric group.

    As mentioned, Rivers isn't the future here so the first order of business is to make a decision on the QB position. Jacob Eason is on the roster, however, I don't see him as a long term answer. At only 26 years old Jameis Winston would be an intriguing target for me. The Saints will struggle to resign him until Drew Brees retires after the season meaning it's likely they simply let him leave. I would send a mid-round pick early in the year and see what a year of development with Winston offers you in terms of long term stability.

    A good plan for the quarterback position will make or break this decision for franchise owners. People who choose to play Rivers for a year, or even invest in Eason, could find themselves behind in building their teams up after a few seasons. The cap flexibility available to this team, along with what they already have, makes this team one of my favorites to build on this year.

    9. New England Patriots

    Offensive Rating: 79

    Defensive Rating: 80

    Overall Rating: 79

    The Good: The Patriots have the best secondary in Madden and it's simply not a debate as they rank 1st in both man and zone coverage. No slouch in the run game either, the Patriots are the 10th rated run defense. On the offensive side of the ball, the team is built stoutly in the trenches with the 6th rated pass blocking, and 2nd rated run blocking, offensive line. A team historically tight against the cap now has some relief holding the 4th most cap of any team in Madden.

    The Bad: New England is the 30th ranked team in YPI, and frankly it's at a lot of the positions they are so good at. Another team in this division that lacks pass rush, the Patriots rate 27th in ORR. Below average in athleticism on both sides of the ball, and lacking elite skill weapons (28th ranked), the Patriots may struggle to put up points this year. After 20 years of Tom Brady, the Patriots are in a bit of a transition with Cam Newton playing QB. At 26th in the adjusted QB rankings, it doesn't seem that Newton is the long term answer for the Pats.

    The Bottom Line: The signing of Newton at least gave the Patriots the ability to win early in most franchises. Another team who I'd look to acquire some sort of pass rusher, the Patriots owner could consider moving on from a guy like JC Jackson or Jonathan Jones, both of which should have considerable value. As for the offense, this is yet another team that needs help at tight end. Again, a call to the Bucs and Rams may be in order to give the offense some sort of reliable weapon. Long term outlook for this team is murky at best. While they have the cap to infuse life into it through free agency, it still feels like there will be a time in the near future this team could be dragged down by a massive regression cycle. If you are an owner who looks to win early while the "meta" is still being figured out, the Patriots would be the perfect team for you.

    8. Tampa Bay Buccaneers

    Offensive Rating: 81

    Defensive Rating: 80

    Overall Rating: 80

    The Good: The offensive weapons on this team are spectacular out of the gate. Three players with abilities on offense, where they rank 4th by the way, make this offense the 3rd rated weapons unit in the game. On the defensive side, the Bucs have the 1st ranked run defense along with the 10th rated pass-rushing unit. Even with all this talent, the Buccaneers are 10th in salary cap available.

    The Bad: This could be good or bad depending on your view, however, Tom Brady at his advanced age is ranked at 91 overall - not a bad ranking, there are just many other better QBs - in adjusted QB rating. Defensively the Buccaneers have issues in the secondary with 28th ranked man coverage and 30th ranked zone coverage units. For as much passing as this team plans to do the 21st rated pass blocking ranking is a slight concern.

    The Bottom Line: The Buccaneers will be one of the first teams off the board because they have star power all over. The offense will only get a year out of Brady and Gronkowski most likely, however, a replacement at tight end already exists in O.J. Howard. On the defensive side of the ball quality players at linebacker and defensive line make this team really appealing. You have a couple of options you can go with here. If you are in the "win now" mentality then I am looking to trade O.J. Howard for help in the secondary. Cameron Brate is a capable back up to Gronk and you can look for your future TE down the line. If you aren't ready to sell Howard to win now then potentially you trade Gronkowski to another team in desperate need for a TE for a lesser quality secondary player.

    The Bucs are one of the teams being most talked about around the franchise community. With all of that star power, especially on offense, people will have fun playing with them. While Brady only lasting a year likely will be a negative to some, I personally view it as a positive as I am one who likes to develop a QB throughout a franchise.

    7. Los Angeles Chargers

    Offensive Rating: 79

    Defensive Rating: 83

    Overall: 80

    The Good: The Chargers have the 2nd best coverage secondary in the league ranking 2nd in both man and zone coverage. One of the better pass-rushing units in football, the Chargers are the 7th ranked team in ORR. Complimenting the pass rush well is the 4th ranked defense athletically in the league. With the 3rd most cap space, the Chargers should be able to fill any holes that emerge.

    The Bad: On offense, the Chargers are not very explosive as they land at 29th in offensive athleticism. The run defense could use some improvement as they are the 22nd ranked in the run defense metric. The team as a whole is trending to the older side, at 22nd in youth power index the Chargers will need to add some youth over time.

    The Bottom Line: There is a lot to like about this team but I think they may not be for everyone. The offensive weapons lack the athleticism many owners covet in their teams, while the defense is aging a bit in the cornerback room. The other big question is what to do at QB with Justin Herbert being a middle-tier option long term at first glance.

    This team is flush at corner, and with such need for the position, should be able to use one of the corners to improve elsewhere. The question is "which corner to trade?", and the answer is "whichever one gets the most in return". On the other side, I am probably looking for some sort of athleticism at wide receiver. In a division with three really athletic offenses, the Chargers will need to get better there to compete.

    If it was me personally I would take the Chargers early and often in any franchise I was in. I get why some people may be less than excited about the offensive outlook, however, I think the defense has staying power and the offense can be easily fixed. Owners should keep in mind that as good as the chargers are, because of the talented teams in the division signing up for the Chargers is signing up for a battle in most leagues.

    6. Cleveland Browns

    Offensive Rating: 85

    Defensive Rating: 79

    Overall Rating: 82

    The Good: The Browns have a boat-load of Cap Space (first in madden), an already stacked offense and an two X Factor Players (Myles Garrett and Nick Chubb.) The WR is elite, mainly because of Superstar Odell Beckham - the Running game is basically unstoppable (Averaged 100+ Yards per game) because of HB Nick Chubb, and the QB rating is a solid B+. The AI Browns team got into the Playoffs in four out of five different Franchise storyboards, and got into the Super Bowl two of those four times. And that was without the actual player.

    The Bad: The Browns defense mainly relies off of C+ Grade Positions. Fortunately, the cap space gives you good room to improve in the worse positions. Unfortunetly, their are so many terrible positions that you'll be spending all of your cap space just getting your Defense out of the D Grade. They also have the 31rst ranked running defense. Did we mention that?

    The Bottom Line: The Browns aren't immediate contenders for a Super Bowl. They play with the Ravens, the Steelers and the Bengals: all of which have better defensive ratings. Simulating the entire season will put you at a 6-10 to 10-6 Season. Fortunately, the Draft is very promising for this team and many replacements for the Defensive side of the team can be found. Find DLs and DTs at the top of your priority list. Remember that you have a below average defense. Also, advice for players that want to do the "Rebuild" mode: trade Odell Beckham. He eats a lot of cap space and is generally overrated in the Trade game. You could get an 80+ receiver, A 75+ Defensive Tackle and maybe even a 70+ Defensive Linemen with him alone. Advice for "win it now" players: trade Baker Mayfield for defensive players, and then sign Colin Kaepernick in Free Agency. He has a better Overall Rating and a MUCH better scrambling rating.

    5. Philadelphia Eagles

    Offensive Rating: 85

    Defensive Rating: 77

    Overall rating: 81

    The Good: There is almost too much to name here, but we will try. The Eagles dominance starts with the #1 rated pass and run blocking offensive line. Speaking of the trenches, on the defensive side of the ball the Eagles lead the league in pass rush with the #1 ranked ORR. Throw on top of all of this a top 10 adjusted QB, weapons, and secondary coverage units and this team is going to be tough.

    The Bad: As good as this team is they have some minor issues…and then one massive one. Let's start with the minor issues, the run defense ranking 27th in the league is not a great position to be in. In terms of team youth, the Eagles check-in at 20th in the YPI. As for the big issue, the Eagles cap is flat out bad.

    The Bottom Line: As good of a team as the Eagles are on paper the conversation starts and stops in terms of franchise with their cap. After some maneuvering by EA, the team can be managed but will require cutting a lot of the guys on the roster to do so.

    How do you dig out of this hole? As I said above it's tough. How bad does the roster need to be gutted? If you cut, or trade, DeSean Jackson, Mallik Jackson, Jefferey, Graham, and Johnson you'd be positive with some room to breath. The issue with that is you still then have to field a team, which means finding their replacements.

    I have hammered on this all offseason, but the Eagles cap will once again be a nightmare to manage. EA's approach to their cap makes it manageable, however, it'll still be a task that most people aren't up to take on. The Eagles are a "buyer beware" team to me because of these issues.

    4. Kansas city Chiefs

    Offensive Rating: 87

    Defensive Rating: 79

    Overall Rating: 83

    The Good: A 99 Rated QB, (the best in the league) three X factor players (Travis Kelce, Tyreek Hill) and the Sleeper LB Willie Gay Jr. would make the Chiefs Already a top ten team: then remember that they are only 4 million above the cap. (A few cuts and boom, your done.) They storm out of the League as the number 1 Ranked Offense and the number one ranked Run offense. They are a Super Human Team.

    The Bad: The defense. If the defense was only an 81, the Chiefs would have a 85 Overall Rating: tied for the best in the League. But they don't. And their 4 mill over. And their Defensive Line Sucks like hell. (ask madden, not me) Besides going to the Playoffs All five of the experimental franchise mode game sets I used, they had an exceptionally low win: loss ratio. Their average record seems to be 10-6. Its not bad, but its not the 12-4 averaging Chiefs Team we see today.

    The Bottom Line: Just upgrade the defense and you've got yourself a great team. There are a few concerns about the average age of the players; its about 30. try to trade around some unneeded players for draft picks (you don't have many) and cut a few players to get under the cap. (No, you can't spend money when your over the cap in madden) They also have a very challenging first schedule, but their division is pretty damn easy to claim. Just stay on track and don't try to draft offensive weapons: you already have the best O'fence in the league.

    3. New Orleans Saints

    Offensive Rating: 85

    Defensive Rating: 83

    Overall Rating: 84

    The Good: The Saints are an explosive group on offense ranking 1st in offensive weapon rankings, and that unit is supported by one of the top offensive lines in the league. The offensive line is 3rd ranked pass-blocking and 7th ranked run-blocking. On the other side of the ball, the 7th ranked pass-rushing unit gives the defense a spark. All of this is multiplied by the fact that the Saints are the 7th youngest team per the YPI.

    The Bad: The Saints' biggest issue is their 31st ranked cap situation, which is understandable with this much talent. While the offense is one of the best in terms of skill, in terms of athleticism they check-in at 20th. Drew Brees's career is about over and with that in mind, he finds himself at 20th in the adjust QB ratings.

    The Bottom Line: The Saints are a juggernaut of a team and one of the best in the game. The offense will be electric while the defense has stars dotted throughout to help keep games from becoming a shootout. The concern around cap becomes less of a concern after recently learning that Drew Brees will retire after year 1 in most franchises.

    While Brees will retire after the season, that means re-signing guys during the year will still be an issue. With that in mind, the Saints hold one of the more interesting assets in the game year 1 in Jameis Winston. With a few teams in need of a QB, Winston becomes a really intriguing asset. And with no immediate needs other than cap space moving Winston for a package of picks makes a lot of sense for the Saints.

    The Saints are a personal favorite of mine. Similar to the Bucs they will need a QB after year 1 which will give owners a chance to develop a QB throughout the cycle. Beyond QB however, this team does not need a lot of maneuvering which means they give owners a lot of freedom to take the team whichever direction they like.

    2. Baltimore Ravens

    Offensive Rating: 84

    Defensive Rating: 84

    Overall Rating: 84

    The Good: Lamar Jackson is the 2nd rated quarterback in my adjust QB ratings. A top 10 line in both pass and run blocking provides Jackson with a lot of room to operate. Defensively, the secondary is a top 10 unit in man and zone coverage. The team as a whole is 3rd in YPI and is 7th in cap space to boot.

    The Bad: There really isn't a whole lot to put here. The 25th rated run defense would be the biggest issue for this team. The weapons have some potential but as they stand right now they are the 20th rated group in the league.

    The Bottom Line: The Ravens are the 2nd rated team in my rankings for a reason, they are flat out dominant. Lamar Jackson gives you an electric playmaking QB for the entire cycle. The defense has really good players at each level, along with some young up and comers. Offensively, guys like Mark Andrews and Marquise Brown are future stars in the making.

    In terms of team management, there isn't a whole lot to do here. This team isn't flush with a lot of assets to trade away, but again there isn't much of a need here either. If there was one place I'd consider looking around at it would be for a #2 wide receiver potentially. Miles Boykin has some upside but it never hurts to see what else is available out there.

    The Ravens will be one of the first teams to go in your team draft. It's not just that they are rated highly across the board, it's that they have pieces that are fun to play with which will be even more enticing to potential owners. The Ravens join the Browns as one of those teams ready-made to go wire to wire in terms of being a top-quality team

    1. San Francisco 49ers

    Offensive Rating: 85

    Defensive Rating: 85

    Overall Rating: 85

    The Good: I can't just say "everything", but it kind of feels that way for San Francisco. 2nd rated in the Youth Power Index, one of the most impressive things about this team is the long term outlook. On the field, the 49ers are top 10 in offensive and defensive athleticism, adjusted QB rating, weapons, run blocking, ORR, and zone coverage.

    The Bad: Honestly? nothing. They do some things only slightly better than average such as 13th rated run defense, but that's about as bad as things get for this team. 19th in cap space could become an issue down the road, but as of now, they are in fine shape in the near term.

    The Bottom Line:The San Francisco 49ers are the best team in the game. With no real weaknesses and good to great almost everywhere they should dominate leagues with a solid user. Jimmy Garoppolo is serviceable for now, but if there was one place I'd want to improve long term it would be at QB. On the defensive side, Richard Sherman is still excellent but only has one or two years left at a high level.

    The place the 49ers could potentially use some help would be at #1 wide receiver. With quality backs like Tevin Coleman and Raheem Mostert, the 49ers could potentially move one for an older but still quality wide receiver. Probably not a buyer for the half-backs I previously mentioned, however, the Bengals and more specifically AJ Green could be a target in some sort of offensive lineman and picks package.

    I am going to guess the 49ers go #1 or #2 in nearly every franchise. Built to last for the whole cycle and dominant across the board make them an easy choice. Owners who want more of a team-building challenge may pass on them but in reality, even I as someone who likes to build teams would have to consider them given the opportunity.

    Thanks for reading! This took a lot of time so please comment and upvote! (:
