these are the Madden 11 simulation of the season. They say we go 9-7 with Favre (who throws the most INTs) and 9-7 without Favre (which is weird because T-Jack doesn't compare to Favre. Meanwhile the Packers go 12-4 with a trip to the Super Bowl. Luckily,they say they lose to the Pats.

But I don't care about these because its not accurate of the Vikings...

If everything goes right for them I can see 5 wins.

i heard the playcalling is more realistic. but thats why i loved madden for so many years, i loved the many many different plays you could call.

I have madden 11 on the 360. My opinion is defensive pass coverage is broken way to easy to pass the ball, but then again i always use the vikings and their secondary kinda blows so maybe thats my problem.

if anyone wants to play let me know and i'll post my GT

Agreed. I was playing my friend and he was the colts and I would call a perfect coverage for an underneath route (cover 2) and he would always complete it no matter how many people were there. Also I think that it is way too easy to throw screens. The CPU is always dumb and never notices it and I'm always the only guy there,even playing Man and press coverage. I think at least the lineman with a high awareness rating should be able to sniff out a screen at least every once in a while

Sold the game back mid-season. It was alright but nothing that held my attention. Use Rhys Lloyd as your kicker if you aren't already, he's a lot better than Longwell in the game.

The Madden Series is a disaster IMO. I remained loyal as long as I could but I finally didn't buy this year's game after renting it. There's nothing new.

When you compare the series to other sports series like The Show, NBA 2K_ or NHL, Madden really falters. Straight up terrible.

EA needs competition again...

Is the Ultimate Team add-on any good?

I would agree too I really like madden 11
I personnally used to love the Be as superstar mode and I think they have killed it in recent years. In older games you have apartments and did the combine and all that now you just play games. Also it bugs me that if i go a QB drafted to the pats with 60 overall i start over Tom Brady. A bit of realism in it would be nice.

also screens are WAYY to easy to complete they go for 10 + yards most times.

Anyone who plays online on PS3 give me a shout

how lame

I agree with both of ya 100 percent. I like Madden 2011 but I still don't think it compares to what that feeling had when Madden 2004 and 2005 came out. To me it seems like it just went downhill from that.

As far as the NFL 2K series that was some amazing #### for a low price. I still got my 2K3 with Urlacher on the cover and today I still think it is the best football game ever. It even had semi presentations and run down games at the end of a week season. MAdden doesn't even have that. Are u kidding me? This is why I don't buy Madden every year like other idiots I know (no offense to people here that does). It's just dumb especially when some things don't even improve and the same thing goes with the NBA live series after 2004 things got worse and worse.
