Madden 2009

I think this years version has the potential to be great. Many good features have been added and many of the early impressions have been overwhelmingly positive.

I'll wait for reviews before I get it. But recently, I've been disappointed by Madden. Haven't enjoyed it since '04.

The online Dynasty will be the big factor for NCAA trumping Madden once again this year.

i think madden is having essentially the same thing with an online league feature. but from what i've heard, it won't be that in-depth.

I can't believe some actually think the overall NCAA game is better than Madden...I don't see it unless you could care less about NFL football...

I started a franchise with the Titans and made these trades....

Trade #1:
Cincinnati gets: LB Keith Bullock and Titans 2009 3rd round pick
Tennessee gets: WR Chad Johnson and Bengals 2009 4th round pick

Trade #2:
Oakland gets: RB Chris Henry, Titans 2009 1st round pick, and Titans 4th round pick
Tennessee gets: RB Darren McFadden and Raiders 2nd round pick (LMFAO)

Trade #3:
Kansas City gets: DT Albert Haynesworth
Tennessee gets: DT Glenn Dorsey and KC's 1st round pick in 2009 draft

Trade #4
Dallas gets: WR Roydell Williams
Tennessee gets: LB Kevin Burnett

none of these trades were forced and the salary cap is on. My reasoning...

Trade #1: I need somebody else other than Justin Cage to be my #1 WR. I hated giving up Bullock but he's aging a bit, but I'll take losing him if that means I get one of the best WR's in the game

Trade #2: Chris Henry is complete crap. I have a solid defense and wanted just one more playmaker on offense and was willing to give up some draft picks, but I couldn't believe that Oakland also gave me their 2nd round pick. I love my runningback of McFadden, LenWhale, Chris Johnson

Trade #3: Since the salary cap is on, I knew there would be no way I could keep Haynesworth. He's a 98 on the game so I thought he'd be good value for trade bait. Really happy that I got a DT that will probably be better than Haynesworth and is under a long term contract. I got my 1st round pick back, that I traded for McFadden.

Trade #4: With Bullock being dealt, I had a huge hole at LB. So I gave up Williams who was a 79 and picked up Burnett who is a 82 and is so far my leading tackler.

I still felt my LB's were a bit weak so I signed Takeo Spikes to a 2 year deal.

starting skill players....

QB: Vince Young
RB: Darren McFadden/LenDale White
WR: Chad Johnson/Brandon Jones/Justin Cage
TE: Algie Crumpler

defense looks like this...

DE's: Vanden Bosh and Kearse
DT's: Tony Brown and Dorsey
LB's: Spikes, Burnett, Thorton
DB's: Finnigan, Harper, Griffin, Hope

I have a 90 overall, 89 defense and 88 offense. 3-1 on the season so far

I played my first online game last night.. Lost 31-28, and he was a cheezer too. I hate em. He woudl go for it on EVERY 4th down no matter where he was at, and any time he kicked off it would be an onside kick.
