All of that aside. There are things I hate about this game.
Let me give a disclaimer first. I am a long time Maddener. I have played Madden for 15+ years and have always been great at it.
Due to focusing on getting my degree, I put Madden aside a few years ago the year we drafted Gio.
Madden has changed immensely since then, and I find it so much harder to play.
I played a season as the Bengals on my ea access 10 hours, and after turning the difficulty down to all pro (I usually play all madden... or used to anwyays) I still found the game very difficult. Also, it seems buggy in how you accumulate stats. Every game I played (I was 5-3 when my time ran up), the scores were very low. Jeremy Hill would get 30-60 yards a game, if that and Dalton would throw for 100 yards. We would hold the opponent under 100 yards and the game would end up like 7-3. Maybe I just suck at the new Madden, but it felt slow and boring.
As for the Steeler love... there is soooo much of it it IS annoying as hell. When I met them in my season they were 7-0 :snark: , I was 3-3 and beat them at least.
It's a good game the more that I play it, but I think it definitely has issues as well.
The stat issue is based on clock and accelerated clock. Play around with those and you will find a time that yields good stats. As for the difficulty, that is probably a rust problem. I play in a league with 31 other guys online, we play all-madden, and I still average 21-40ish points a game. We play year round release to release though, so I am at the point when I look at a defense I basically see the play art over top of it, Ha.
