red falcon 4,968 Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 How are they gonna put Lamar Jackson in the same group as Ryan superstar wise? Yet they put guys like Cam Newton and Andrew Luck as X Factors? Doenst make sense to me. I know its Madden, news is slow.

Ryan2Julio11 818 Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 Andrew Luck is overrated. What has he done to garner so much praise? CrimsonFalcon, Malachore, NCFalconfan and 7 others 10 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He is good but I think people just hype him because he has a big arm and can run people over. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JD dirtybird21 22,953 Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 Pretty terrible. Especially with Cam, Rivers, and Luck getting it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ya_boi_j 67,737 Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 I play madden and this doesn’t bother me. I just hope there’s going to be a way to disable the X factors. On the flip side Matt does have a special ability. I can’t remember what it is. Ovie_Lover, TheFatboi, JD dirtybird21 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Like Juju has it where he wins against single coverage toss ups but to unlock it he has to catch like 3 or 4, 30+ yard passes. At that point you're already being smacked plus you could just add a safety on him. I like it because then it forces you to actually double a teams best WR if he deserves it. ya_boi_j, JD dirtybird21, GeorgiaBoyz and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sometimes I think cover 3 works way too well against an elite receiver going deep. The corner could suck but the play stops it ya_boi_j and Ovie_Lover 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Have you seen the one equipped to Brady and Rodgers? Brady has the best IMO. Rodgers has one where he doesn't even throw interceptions. Talk about OP. I'm not playing MUT in the new one so I won't run into too many OP ones hopefully. With the pass rush being tuned majorly this year, I think it's actually going to be fun to play until they break something in a patch Ovie_Lover 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think I’ll keep them on at first though. As long as they’re not overly obnoxious icons on the field. Madden needs to stop the arcade style **** and stick to simulation. Wish the NFL wasn’t so **** obsessed with having one “official” EVERYTHING of the NFL. Official Soda of the NFL. Official Pizza of the NFL. Official Beer of the NFL. Official ******* pick up truck of the NFL. Let 2K or the Sony guys that do MLB The Show take a crack at an NFL licensed game. But I don’t see it ever happening unfortunately...

On zones, I usually assign a DT as a spy. It takes away middle crossing routes. I will then usually control either the nickel corner or one of the LB’s and cover who I anticipate will get open.

The issue that I run into is that when the AI sees me close to a man that I'm not attempting to cover period, that man always ends up getting free then I have to make up for the lost ground.

It's possible, I've never been wowed by his arm strength the times I've seen him play personally. Certainly nothing like Vick/Rodgers/Newton and the other cannon arms I've seen. His Y/A has been rather pedestrian throughout his entire career though, so strong arm or not he hasn't really been a great deep passer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
