Thoughts on the new promo?

I honestly like it, it’s creative. But real question, were those actually nfl players?

Some are

burt reynolds didn't make it to the nfl, he went to college on a football scholarship but got injured and switched to acting (his dream was to play in the nfl though). Roman reigns yes, he played football in college and got signed by the vikings but got diagnosed with leukemia. This is a real easy litmus test for who likes  madden vs who is just here to complain about everything lol, this stuff is way better than anime characters and 6 oop bo jacksons.

Well said. Although I would of loved a Bobby Boucher Jr.

No Adam Sandler

No waterboy 😭😭😭

Feeling Similar to genki force, just not my cup of tea. Guess im getting old.

At least genki force had stat boosts

I don’t like this it’s weird. The last good promos were in madden 22

While this may be better, all of these promos are not good.

I think I actually like this promo.

All of them actually played football.

Some of them were really good in the NFL.

I like Bosworth, Long, Bradshaw, Gronk, Ward, etc. and would like to add them to my team.

I did a quick search and there are still plenty of others that could be chosen for a part 2, or a future promotion... Marino, L.T., Jim Brown, Olson, Alzado, Golic, Goldberg, O.J., Bubba, Favre, Ditka, Butkus, Nitchke, Romanowski, etc.

Much better than using people that never played football or using made up characters!

We get more XP from the pass, which is nice.

There are a bunch of objectives for the upgrade tokens that will keep us occupied all weekend.

Not bad!

Lmfao that's Paul Bearer

they look alike if you glance at them really quickly lol

I don't like this promo.

The card art is bad, the cards r bad, and idek who some of these guys r

Also it’s crazy that Roman Reigns has a 98 and Nick Chubb hasn’t got a card since his core elite

Excited for it.. especially since EA also had Al Bundy and another name I didn't recognize advertised as well for this program.. since obviously there not in game yet I'm hoping for a sat or sun extra ltd of these guys. The opportunity to have Al "4 tds in 1 game" Bundy on my team is honestly to good to pass up.

garbage. start to lose interest but sadly content in mlb the show is non existent . I hope NCAA isn’t going to be as much of a disappointment where it’s rinse and repeat on players and zero variety

x-factors just killed the game way too early this year. We really need a mode where you can't use the lit up x-factors. At this point, if a card doesn't have 3 discounted buckets and a pre-lit x-factor it's not a good card

Even though I use avatars like Al Bundy (my favorite character - go Polk High!!) or Paul Crewe, I’m just messing around and wouldn’t like to actually see them in a videogame. I’d rather see true legends being honored with 98s and 99s than some guys that never have been in an official football game.

It’s not that hard to think of creative ideas. One could be college chemistries / strat items. Maybe a promo from the pre NFL era, “the golden oldies”; or the dream team of each decade; or a “sleepers” promo. Maybe bring back great promos such as the positional heroes.
