Help Me win a Madden 05 Bet
Ok, my friend is good at madden, like real good. Here are the terms of the bet
-I can pick whatever teams i want for both of us, as long as they are regular NFL teams -No onside kicks -Play on all madden So far i have been playing Patriots (me) vs the Giants as the main matchup, though we have run the bet several times, and i have yet to win. Here is what he likes to do on offense -Run to the outside out of i-form, allot -play action deep throw out of i-form -singleback slant routes mixed in with draws on defense -4-3 or dime, with lots of blitzing. Problems i have been having -interceptions- we throw roughly the same amount of passes that hit off the hands of the DB, but he seems to intercept it way more. Am i better of letting the computer try and catch it or trying to quickly take control of that guy and hit y? -the outside run- earlier today i basically tried every defense the patriots have and could not stop it very consistently, or when i did stop it it opened me up to lots of other **** -Running on offense- i jsut cant get the game going. Even when hes in the dime, he cheats in his safetys or corners and i just get drilled at the line. Suggestions on what team i should make him be? I have NO QUALMS, REPEAT, NO QUALMS about using the cheapest possible strategy to beat him, even if that means resorting to the eagles.. please help! |

The problem with this strat seems to be he can just pick one of those DE contain plays, and on all madden the dudes are fast enough to catch vick. also- falcons defense= stinkeroo

It would be a crime to not use Baltimore. They are easily the best team in the game to use against this type of strategy. Learn how to run effectively and fast. It amazes me how people suck at running. As for his team, just give him Cleveland or something like that.
Your game plan should be as followed: A mixture of runs with JamLew and passes to Heap over the middle or quick outs to Heap. Don't get fancy, control the clock and make sure you get the first downs. DO NOT throw into danger. Just get outside the pocket and throw it away. |

Honestly, when someone picks a 1-dimensional team I can easily destroy them. The Eagles would be a better option, but the Vikings are the best for black QBs as they do have Randy. A smart person can beat the Vikings though, as all you have to do is double cover Moss and make sure to have a safety to cover Culpepper. |

Re: Help Me win a Madden 05 Bet
I actually played that exact matchup one game( i have lost like 25 games in a row.. hence the desperate plea). the browns have 2 or 3 recievers who are 96 or above speed and my secondary just couldnt keep up. I threw allot of dropped balls with baltimore, maybe i was just throwing bad passes. Im gonna go try this out v the computer though, thanks

Re: Help Me win a Madden 05 Bet
Simulation vs. the computers won't help that much. You should be able to cover his recievers, the thing is always have Reed as your guy of choice and lurk in the part of the field you think he'll go to. This is key.
