I have Crosby on a 50/50 TT. He's excellent. Mack and Jones are 3-4 guys though right so might play better in that scheme? I play 90% 4-3.

That's right! It is a 'sim' game isn't it. Because Too Tall did actually play some CB in his career and we all know how good a Kicker Vince Wilfork was. :o)

It’s likely because they are using team chems for 2 or 3 different teams 25/25 or 25/25/25 or even 50/25 for their TT. 

Even if I have 25/25/25 I make my coach, stadium, and uniforms the same team because it bugs me too. 
 

Thanks again for the post, it’s not too different from my experience in H2H and it was enjoyable to read!

Thanks man. That makes sense now.

Hey everyone. So, it was a slightly tongue-in-cheek run-through of a typical stint playing H2H, that's all. 

Interestingly, while people had different takes on why I posted, no one disagreed with the experience?

Madden is a flawed game. No one dis…

Game 1  - The top 3 are all gold 99's but he comes out with PA Cross and it's an easy pick 6. He quits.

Game 2 - Pet hate No.1 as I'm playing the New York Giants but in the Vikes stadium? Why do people do that? I'm up 21 - 0 and the connection goes…

That 90% of the numbers on any given card count for absolutely nothing.

This is a Raiders Theme Team with hardly any Raider players in it? Erm.....

I've used about 120k worth of training and pulled pretty much nothing - no enhanced strategy cards, quite a few shitty unis and 1 or 2 91OVR ULs. As NMS that's about as much as I can do. So, disappointing but those are the breaks I guess.

I've always played Base, Play Ball, Conservative Option anyway but good to see there might be a point to it. Seems that Aggressive Blocking is also a bit of a no-brainer? Never had a Holding Pen in H2H?

On O I have Uncommon Pave the Way for the OL and Rare On the Move with SPD & ACC for the HBs. To be honest I think it helps my OLine a bit but the RB's don't seem any better. On D I have Rare in the Zone with SPD boost and Uncommon Secure Tackle…

OOP just leaves me cold. CB Maukrice Pouncy FFS? Half of these guys look nothing like the real player. None of them play like the real player. So other than a name and number on the jersey what is it about any of them that resembles the actual guy i…

I generally do. When I see that horrible floaty pass come out my QBs hand that is both nice and high and nice and slow just so the other team can pick it though? Not so much.

Am I the only one who waits for the O to call a play and then matches up a formation?

A Deablo, Moehrig or Nate Hobbs please.
