Pocket passer, scrambler, or balanced QB?

[PennyandtheJets]

We talked about RB's...lets now discuss QB's.

I am a big fan QB's who are pocket passers, but have just enough ability to move around and create. 65 speed in Madden for a QB is good enough to keep the chains moving.

So here is my ideal QB.

6 foot 4 inches tall and 225 pounds.

Arm Strength- 90

Accuracy- 93

Speed- 65

So I like the balanced RB and balanced QB.

What do you like?

[Theo Huxtable]

I like them a little faster more like a 70 and I can deal with a little lower accuracy like a 90 and power around 93-95 because I like to throw the deep posts when Im not running or throwing a quick slant.

[ButtleMan]

I like a pocket passer with a strong arm that can get the ball to the receiver before the super fast DB's can get there.
Even if I am wide open ,the second I catch it a DB is right there.

[bigalxc]

I need a qb like McNair and Culpepper for roll out passes

[Wolfe Tone]

SoThis is mine

6 foot 2 inches tall and 215 pounds.

Arm Strength- 95

Accuracy- 87

Speed- 72

I rarely run, but I run outside the pocket to pass

I like guys like Bollinger, Garcia, Jesse palmer,

I like all of what you got but I like him to be a lil faster when its time to roll out he has a leg to stand on !Id like his speed around 69 - 71 nothing ridculous

[FITM]

I like most accurate because I rarely throw deep balls.

[Jonathan_Vilma]

Pocket passer. I just slide in the pocket towards who I'm going to throw to. I don't need to run.

[Mantana Soss]

I need the big gun. My prototypical madden QB is McNabb because he's got the arm and can take off too, but I'm still all about the Brett Favre type. Don't have to run if you can sling the rock (Collins, Bledsoe).

[DonnieIsTheKing]

I run the ball most of the time, but when I drop back to pass I like to have a pocket passer with a ton of arm strength so I can hit guys deep on play action passes.

[lightning]

My ideal qb is probably marc bulger, i like a guy who has about even pass str and acc. For me speed doesn't matter, i would perfer around 60-65.

Strength: 90
Acc: 90

Like FITM said earlier, i rarely throw deep as well. Every once in a while when i do throw deep it's on a play fake.

[NY Vilmaniac]

Leftwhich is my perfect QB

97 power
89 acc ( i think)
47 speed

i like arm pwer not neccessarily so i can go deep, but o i can get the ball there quicker

[FITM]

I like to throw over the middle or comebackers, so I just like accurate arms. I love to throw out of the backfield as well.

[sanchizeqb]

I like to throw over the middle or comebacks so accuracy is key. Along with that comes velocity, because often I leave safetys trying to jump the gun and miss out on my balls. Having a strong arm is good, but it doesn't have to be elite ala Peyton Manning or what not.

[Mexican Buc]

I run a west coast offense myself. I never run out of the pocket, at all, so speed is the last thing I mind. Granted I don't want a stone that can't move at all, but I in no way need a Vick or McNabb.

Accuracy is #1 for me. With short routes and big targets, that is the most importnat thing. I've never used a QB (on a regular bases) with Power over 90. But usually the accuracy is high 80's or low 90s. Recently I have become fond of power becuase of Galloways ability to stretch the field is amazing. But still, pocket passer for me all the way.

[Zach]

I'm divided on this issue:

In one franchise, I am running a QB whose speed is 98 *wow* acceleration is 97, agility is 95 and carry is 88. his throwing power is 75, accuracy 75 and awareness at 88. My HB does nothing there - I call all-out hail mary pass, and then start running underneath - usually gain of 25+.

In other franchise, I have a balanced QB, his speed is 65, but his acceleration is 87. Carrying is a bit low with 65, so I try not to get tackled when I run with him. His other stats are impressive: as a rookie, his throwing accuracy is now at 97 *started off at 91,* throwing power at 94 and awareness at 80. I do run once in a while, but I usually drop him back and throw more often than not.

To me, both are fun - especially the scrambler, because even with his impressive speed and all, he is chubby as a Pillsbury dough boy. To see him blaze through the secondary *with all the fat and flesh* is one of the most hilarious things to watch in Madden.

[SettlerDawg]

I've played and gotten used to pocket passers. However, I now use Vick and the Falcons whenever I play online, and I've gotta say, I like Vick a lot. 94 speed I think, with a killer arm in the high 90's. Vick overthrows players sometimes, but precision passing takes care of that. With Dunn running tosses and catching flat passes, Duckett running in between the tackles (against any douche that constantly runs dime and quarter b/c cornerbacks have no problem taking on blockers and tackling), and Vick taking off if all my receivers are covered, I have a deadly offense. Obviously, it is crucial to read defenses to see who will be open and whether or not to take off with Vick. With practice, the Falcons have by far the best offense (aside from the Colts, who will dumb down your defenders for some reason).

So if anyone has patience, Vick is your man.

im one of those douches, but thats only because im playing against morons who use 3-4 wide every down and cannot protect against corner blitzes

[Learn To Swim]

Accuracy all the way, but I prefer a strong arm to go with it.
Scrambling is not important for me because I always build my line before anything (I play run-first a lot).

[Mantana Soss]

I would crush all of you noobs.

[l3ol3o]

I like the pure pocket passers. I like to go deep alot so Arm Strength is important for me. Im not a huge scambler but I will scamble for a TD when im

[Tight]

I would crush all of you noobs.

Never. Give me a pocket passer. My favorite qb in 06 was david carr.

[NYJATW]

faster the better for me

i can have great accuracy and still bomb 4-5 picks a game...it sucks ( i dont use QB vision )

so i just go with the speedy guys

[Zcore]

I like Mcnair & McNabb they both are atheltic enough to scramble only if I have to & great passers. They both can go deep with enough accuracy. I also like Chad in the game too his deep ball is weak but man his accuracy is off the hizook!! So when WR's are doing cross patterns it kills defenders.

[PRPitbull]

Im pretty much a pocket passer but my QB has 72 speed which is enough to roll out and keep the play alive, but not enough to scramble for a gain of yards. I dont like fast qbs because they just feel cheesy. 72 speed is just good enough to avoid the pass rush.

Another plus for playing as a pocket passer is that you can play as anyone. I can go from playing as Eli Manning or Chad Pennington to playing as McNabb and not miss a step and have the advantage of scrambling for yds. You cant go from playing as Mike Vick to playing as Kerry Collins. You get to dependent on the ability to scramble and that will bite you in the ass when you dont have a scrambler. I've seen people who are use to playing as speedy QBs, play as pocket passers, and they still try to scramble for yards.

I love playing against people who depend on scramblers because for the most part, they suck at making the right reads.

As for the qb im playing as right now(im rebuilding a super shitty team) hes:

6'0 190lbs
72 spd
85 THA 85 THP(hes a rookie and im still building him up)

Im mostly a dink and dink passer because its a pain to hit your man in stride going deep(the computer on the other hand does this perfectly. I love how their WR actually pulls away and creates separation where as my WR is basically holding hands with the DB all the way down the field. Gotta love cheesy ass madden)
