Madden 2011 hates the Jets

If only Madden = real life. In my Madden franchise I beat the Patriots 49-28, Sanchez had 7 TD passes lol. Edwards had 4 TDs and almost 300 yards receiving. I wasn't even trying to pour it on

 

Sanchez down to a 79 .... what a joke


5 good weeks he goes up 1 point, 2 bad weeks including a dropped TD, he goes down 3 points

 

Fuck this game, I'm done with the updates.


The new Assassins Creed is out, time to move on.



For the exact reason you mentioned above, Sanchez being below 80 is freakin ridiculous.

Pool and the whole D played great, no increases there? Bullshit-

 

Fucking Madden. This game is so damn unrealistic, I'm up 31-7 at the start of the fourth quarter in a ranked game, the Madden effect kicks in, two fumbles by LT, a fumbled punt return by Wilson, all of the sudden nobody can block or pass rush, I lose in OT.

 

I thought the Jets were supposed to have a good defense in this game. Is their some trick to playing wit the Jets D?

 

Well, post routes over the middle are waaay too effective overall...but I guess for us that has been a problem anyways so its unrealistically realistic:breakdance:

 

That is true, Ive also noticed my lack of offensive capabilities in the game has coincided with the real Jets lack of offensive ability.

 

When is Weatherfords stats going to be increased ?

 

They won't, but if he has a bad week they will surely get decreased.

 

Yeah, crazy comebacks never happen in real football.

 

Come on, it's 6 minute quarters. The Madden Effect in kicked against me big time. Although after seeing how the Eagles did the Giants yesterday I agree with you slightly

 

Not not toot my own horn but I beast shit with the Jets D.

Of course I have Jenks, Leonhard in, and JT at DE.


I use defensive assignments, when I expect rush, 3-4 rush D, pinch and spread the LBs. Or 3-4 D, Solid, gap press and again spread the LBs. Not so sure, Nickel sub package, Man QB spy or cover 1.

Or Nickel, 3-3-5 package, 2 man under and press the coverage.


On any long distance yardage, I go to quarters, 2man spy, or cover 4 pressed depending on the team. Most of the time I send Diggs into QB containt since a lot of fuckers love to run, especially now that Vick is back.

 

Lmao this is so true.

 

6 minute quarters in Madden produce the same amount of scoring as 15 minutes in real life. It comes with the territory of playing a video game, you can't play the clock like a real team would. The two minute warning in madden is more like 5-6 minutes to go in a real game.

 

I'll have to give that a try then, what is the button for defensive assignments on 360?

 

I go under coaching options, defensive assignments.

After hitting the start button obviously.

 

Thanks, that helped alot

I now know another reason why Madden 11 hates the Jets, I got to the Super Bowl in franchise mode, I won and then in the celebratory cut scenes the game froze. the same thing happened two more times, it sucked. I finally just skipped all the cut scenes and it took me back to the main menu

 

I always use defensive assignments but have a problem using them online. People "hide" receivers somehow. I assume they bury them in the depth chart and then formation-sub them in.

Anyway, when they do whatever it is they do to "hide" receivers you cannot lock a DB on a WR. Very annoying.

 

You can presnap, just hit A and man coverage then choose the player. Tough though if they snap quickly.

 

Another travesty is that Steve Weatherford continually gets ignored by whoever does the updates. He's leading the league in punts downed inside the 10, if I'm not mistaken, but he sucks in Madden.
