It’s been a rather busy month or two leading up to the release of Madden 19. That hasn’t stopped me from getting some much needed slider adjustments and tuning done for Franchise Mode.
Madden has continuously put me in a position where I feel like I should be playing on All Madden for difficulty. The problem with that is All Madden forces you to cheese and play in an un-sim sort of way because the CPU resorts to cheating and thus resulting in the paradox of who cheated who first?… or is it ‘whom’?
Regardless, these sliders are for

House Rules Are Simple.
You can’t trade for any first round pick without including at least an 80+ OVR player under 30 years old and a 2nd and 5th OR a 3rd and 4th rounder.
No editing players in the draft class with intent of drafting them late in the draft.
Pick as many different plays as you can throughout the game. This will give you a better experience rather than using money plays. It will keep games close and give you a bit more information on which players you have that you might want to keep or let go.
Make your own rules if you have to in order to stay honest and keep the game fresh.
FINAL THOUGHT
Madden 19 is probably my favorite Madden to date. There are some things that need to be tuned and patched, no doubt. However, it is excellent in terms of player movement and is getting better with playcalling, it still has a lot of room to grow, but it is growing.
Also, please don’t user control your WRs. Let the AI make the catches and you will be amazed at some of the great animations. I am about 50/50 on controlling DBs on passing plays.
IT’S MADDEN SEASON!!!!
