Feel free to not read.  

this is a dumb attitude to take. When was the last time you posted something that fanatics posted to be true on a future happening?  Just because you follow them does not mean what they say is true... In fact for this group? 90% of any future happening's they report is false. They get "lucky" now and then....

I feel for anybody who judges someone based on a leisure activity 

 

Ever since the generation that people grew up with pong… People have been playing video games… grown adults 

 

Now if you play 15 hours a day there’s a problem… If you play two hours a week… With your son or daughter… I don’t know Where you coming from 

 

more than Half of NFL football players play madden so I guess you feel bad for them also lmao

 

I guess nobody has your approval unless reading the New York Times…

Also isn’t that madden curse thing long gone? Mahomes was on the cover he won it all.

 

either way, curses aren’t real. Neither are hexes or wizards or goblins or god. Proud of our cover boy!

Curses absolutely aren’t real …. Now let me say a Hail Mary that I’m correct

I got 99 problems and a B word that is still sucking the life out of me even though I divorced her years ago, is one.

 

But video games over 13 is easily one of the best enjoyments of life.

Like, games have gotten better since pac man guy.  Im not a video game nut per say but still play a bit with the Mrs. I'm 47, make a fair amount of coin and travel as much as i can.  Take that opinionated bunk and go sit with the guy that says we shouldn't wear jerseys because its someone else's name on the back.

Almost half the population under 35 plays video games. It is a normal part of life for people who grew up in the 80's and 90's and beyond. So, you feel bad for a very large sum of people.

Agreed. Plus, Brady has been on there a couple of times. The "curse" hasn't been a thing for years now.

I doubt it. It's quite clear that there's serious hate for Allen at EA Sports. Despite a somewhat low 93 overall rating, there are several triggers which make him a serious liability. For one, his awareness is far too low causing him to make a lot of bad decisions. While his rate of fumbling is far too high, in Madden, his fumbling is absolutely ridiculous. Additionally, his pocket presence is "paranoid", causing him to panic far sooner than in real life. I once ran a simulation game in spectator mode and he fumbled 3 times in a sequence of just 8 offensive plays including 2 fumbles on 2 consecutive plays. His Madden avatar , despite his leading the NFL in turnovers in 2022, is a far cry from reality. I always have to go into the Bills roster and fix the most obvious errors to get a more realistic performance from him. Otherwise the Bills massively underperform as a team. I fully expect the same nonsense from the Madden raters in Madden 24.

Mahomes & Brady were the cover athletes for Madden in 2022. Nothing bad happened to them! 

 

And nothing bad happened to the 2023 cover guy, as he was.... well, not alive 🤔

 

 

 

This is silly. How is there "serious hate" and how is 93 overall "somewhat low?" 🤣

 

That leaves only Mahomes & Burrow ahead of him, which is pretty much how most people see it. If we weren't Bills fans, some people would say he's too high. Jalen Hurts is an 89, ranked below Dak Prescott, Lamar Jackson & Justin Herbert. If they rated him any higher, there'd be people raging about how overrated EA has him (which some already do). 

 

I don't care about his awareness rating though. He does fumble more than other QB's, and he LEAD THE LEAGUE in turnovers last year for all QB's... He's still a 93 overall! That's not "serious hate" by any metric.

Read my post more closely. Better yet, put he game in spectator mode and use the CPU Skill slider "SIMSLIDERS". Set the game settings to 15 minute quarters and the play countdown to 13 seconds. You'll see what I mean. He's an absolute horror show. My son won't even play Madden any more online because of the absurd fumble rate. Yes he fumbles too much, but 4 or more times per game? For example, Kyler Murray ran 4 times fewer than Allen in 2022, but fumbled almost twice as much. His "Carrying" rating (A player's ability to avoid fumbles) was something like 12 to 16 points higher than Allen's. Clearly that's bias at work.

True, if you always slide or go out of bounds when you run with him. Plus, when controlled by you, that automatically overrides several of his triggers that make him cost the team wins.
 
 


 

As someone here who has written about this before on this board in years past…yeah, they grudgingly would raise at an inconsistent pace with others, and his initial yearly rankings were low.

 

That said, 93 is about right, maybe a tad low, but it is fine. 
 

Do you remember his 2020 season?  He was something special, right?  He was also three years deep into his career.

 

At the start of the following Madden season, if memory serves, he wasn’t amongst the top…10 QBs.  🙄🤪

I’ll look at it the opposite as you scaredy cats. A man is about to speak. A real man not a fake ass one like @Royale with Cheese or@teef.

 

Since Madden has started the Bills have not had any players grace their cover. The Bills have also not been to or won a Super Bowl during that same time.

 

Both trends are about to end.

 

Now get back to being little girly boys.

This is the third time this week I’ve been called a fake ass man.
