Running wise, I haven't had too many problems. Find myself running into the back of my own player and unable to get around him. On defense, every time I shift to a new person, I seem more out of whack than what I remember. I had many opportunities to get a sack in the backfield, but when I shift, I run past the player or go the other way. It's weird. May have to play more just to get the hang of it.

Yea, sounds like with a couple of games, none of those will be real issues for you anymore. Of course, I still mess up with overshooting players at times. I thought my running game was doing better this year, but I have only had success with Chris Johnson. I had a terrible game with the Packer running game (understandable), but also was only average with Arian Foster, which really shocked me. I will try the Texans a few more times to see if I can do better as I like their team overall.

Also, will add you tonight to my friends list. Hoping to get a chance to play a few CAGs sometime even with a newborn at home.

I have noticed some of my sloppier passes are getting picked off, especially on the comeback and out routes. The
linebackers sit on my slant routes a lot more too. I played one game as the chiefs vs the falcons and they were crushing me til I knocked Turner and Gonzalez out of the game. I haven't played more than a handful of games in madden for years though.

You can find good leagues on the PS3, just not here on CAG. I got it on PS3 this year to play with a few specific people I know, and I am actually pleasantly surprised to see there is some interest here on CAG this year to have a small community and play some games.

but still, in general the xbox 360 forum are always more lively, over here is like a ghost town

i'd be interested in a league or tournament

Anyone play MUT? It's been years since I've played Madden and I'm hooked on this game mode. So addicting. I got 2 All-Pro packs last night and pulled a Top Rated Limited Edition +1 Matthew Stafford. I was pretty damn happy.

If anyone wanted to start a league I'd be down for one. As long as I get to play with my Colts.

I hear you, pretty much all i play is UT, though i havent got as lucky as you with my cards, seems the only elite cards i get are coaches, blah

I still need to improve my defense, any tips or know any websites that would help?

And no I'm not talking about nano blitz or shaking.

It feels great to me. I can even get interceptions on defense. Game feels like a 2004-2008 madden. What level are you playing on?

I'd like to play, I'm a total newbie to Madden tho. If anyone wants to play, add me on PSN @ therealdanhill

Maybe send me a PM on here first, because that goes right to my email and I'm not on PS3 much. Or send me a message on AIM @ invasionofapathy. I really want to get better at it.
