I run a Chargers theme 100%. For me I really enjoy always not having that anxiousness of having to get the best cards in the game at all times. Sure I had to watch some MCS to get Derwin but overall at this point in the year TT is a great option.
Until cards have base stats that are 95+, then ofc tt are the way to go. After that I agree with most of what I've seen others say. Up to you..... Do what's fun, and works best for you personally. 50/50 Washington "Commanders 🤦" adding slots for coaches, uniforms, etc. Is nice to help put better players at weak slots.
IMO they are more budget friendly. There is a new best card at every position every 7 days. If you get all of them you’re eating the “new car“ tax every time. A theme team will keep your team viable longer and unless you do 25/25/25 or 50/25 you should have plenty of space for your favorite fillers.

I'm running a Broncos team too. Â Defense is great. With my strategy cards and TT bonus I have 5 99s. Dawkins, Surtain, Law, Von and Ware. My worst starter is a 98... defenses as a whole is crazy fast. Offense is another story. Finally got an upgrade with Javonte to add some speed to my RBs and Picked up Joiner so I didn't have to use Brandon Marshall who constantly dropped passes for me.
I do TT for fun as it has a challenge with the game. If you are bored I would encourage doing a TT. But if you want to have a good team I suggest a Rams TT as many of the best players in the game right now played for the rams.
it's fun and frustrating at the same time. Â It's fun to play with your favorite players on your favorite team. Â It can get frustrating when EA comes out with a card for a player on your team who's overall might be high but the attributes aren't that attractive or if they come out with a card that already has a high overall at the same position.
I have a partial tt. I get to 25 chemistry for a team so I get plus 1 speed and thats it. Â Im nms and rely on free players from solos that dont fit a tt but having that speed boost on a handful of ur players including ur captain and taylor mays is very nice

Are theme teams worth it? Â The short answer is yes. Â If you incorporate all of the players that get + team chems (Team Diamonds, Stocking stuffers, team captains etc.) and use all the team visuals (coaches, stadiums, unis). Â Then you will have room for a handful of non-theme team players to fill in the weak spots. Â You won't have many, if any, Â weak spots on the teams. Â At this point in the year, one benefit of a theme team is that you can utilize your strat cards for something other that WR speed (and maybe DB speed) because you will get the +2 speed boost. Â With so many cards at 96-97 speed powered up - you don't need the speed strat cards on a TT.
Of course it does depend on you. Â If your goal is to compete with the best possible team, then a TT at this point in the year may not be the way to go. Â On the other hand, maybe you enjoy playing with your favorite TT. Â Its a game - so just enjoy it. Â Your scheme, skill and strategy are more important to your success anyway - trust me, I've lost to plenty of lower overall teams to learn that lesson.Â
For me, I build hybrid theme teams (25/25) and shake it up every so often.  Allows me to try out many of the best cards in the game with a boost.  And its not really that expensive to make a switch if you plan it out and  don't overspend for backups.  Most teams only have 4-5 cards that I really want to try and the rest don't matter that much, so not every card gets powered up.

If you don't want to do 50/50 I would at least do 25/25 of ur fave team or a team with players you like

I enjoy using players from my team, I also enjoy trying to build Hybrid teams. The speed is really nice but once defenders start hitting 99 man and zone, I feel like losing 1 or 2 speed isn't a huge deal. Speed on receivers and running backs is very nice though
Definitely. I switched it up recently and now run a 25/25/30 Rams 49ers Packers theme team. The theme team is more important early in the year, but it’s still nice to get those extra little boosts.
Reason: Typo
At this point in the game all you should really need is a 25,25 team 2 teams at 25 and it should max you at 99 speed on most WR DB with attribute cards. I run a 30/30 Cowboys Rams Its best if you do one division so that way  you have 3 cards that give all the teams 3 team chems
I think its totally worth it just sold my team about 2 weeks ago and already am up to a 92 overall (92 offense 93 defense) on my rams theme team. The only struggle is just getting coins to get players like Kupp and Whitworth and Torry Holt. Other than that its really fun and I enjoy doing it.
