RETURNING THE RAIDERS TO GLORY (1 Viewer)

did you name them Pick?
No, I left them with their lame Madden names. One G is called J.T. Sapp for example. They're unlikely to see the field except on the occasional special teams play so it's not worth renaming them.
 
Ooh ooh ooh - Mad Cow wants to be the next highly rated speed DE. Gotta love racking up those sacks.

 
Next CB or S I call dibs on Jeri Smoo. And I REFUSE to sign a 7-year deal. I expect you to honour my wishes. My agent has teeth.

 
Hey Portis, do you adjust coaching philosophies between games? Like set the coach to focus on the run one game and the pas the next based on who you're playing? Or have the defense play the run more? Or set an aggressive D that blitzes more often? Do you just set a default value for the season or do you adjust every game? INQUIRING MINDS WANT TO KNOW!

No, I keep it the same for every game, whether simulated or watched - 60/40 pass/run. That's just about the right balance to elevate the values of the QB, WRs and TE while still keeping the HB happy.
 
Note the presence of QB RANDALL MAGNUM and OLB OUTSIDE CONTAIN on the Raiders roster (previous page) as well as FA acquisitions KEVIN MAWAE and DARRELL JACKSON.

 
Year Two has been SIMMED and the Raiders go 10-6, enough to earn them a WILDCARD game at the DIVISION CHAMPION SAN DIEGO CHARGERS!

 
RAIDERS STARTERS for the playoffs:QB MARQUES TUIASOSOPO (82)HB CHARLIE GARNER (88)FB ZACK CROCKETT (80)WR JERRY PORTER (90)WR DARRELL JACKSON (88)TE DOUG JOLLEY (83)LT BARRY SIMS (89)LG FRANK MIDDLETON (87)C KEVIN MAWAE (94)RG MO COLLINS (87)RT LINCOLN KENNEDY (94)DE KENYON COLEMAN (73)DE SAM WILLIAMS (76)DT ROD COLEMAN (89)DT DANA STUBBLEFIELD (85)OLB NAPOLEON HARRIS (89)MLB RANDALL GODFREY (91)OLB ERIC BARTON (89)CB CHARLES WOODSON (94)CB PHILLIP BUCHANON (86)FS RONNIE BRADFORD (81)SS DERRICK GIBSON (82)

 
Our 1st round draft pick RANDALL MAGNUM is our QB of the future but right now we're going to go with TUI. He just doesn't have a great arm, but he's the best guy we have to go with now. He doesn't have to carry the team - he's got a couple of great WRs to throw to, a solid running game and a superb D. Plus he's got some nifty scrambling skills.The Raiders are unlikely to return to the SUPER BOWL this year but we could make some noise in the playoffs.COMING UP! The RAIDERS travel to SAN DIEGO for the wildcard game!!

KICKOFF in San Diego!CHARGERS will get the ball first!Hard to believe, but they're a powerhouse in Madden, so this will be a tough test.

 
SPECTACULAR INTERCEPTION by CHARLES WOODSON! He snared BREES's pass beautifully!Right off the bat!RAIDERS off to a dream start!

 
D-JAX 19 yard TD RECEPTION!Didn't take long for the Raiders to get the first score!TUI lofted it in (he has a weak but accurate arm) for our star FA acquisition, D-JAX!7-0 RAIDERS!

 
RANDALL MAGNUM IS DA BOMB!!DID HE AT LEAST PLAY IN THE REGULAR SEASON?!?!
He played nearly the whole regular season, which means his overall ranking will take a big jump in the off-season. But for now we have to go with Tui because he's got the better overall ranking right now.

Personally I am dissapointed that I am benched in the play offs. Damn man, don't you remember that game when I tore off Brad Johnson's arm on a blitz? Ater clipping the toenails on the OL all season... I will hold out until you raise my contract with a snickers bar and that cheerleader Latoshaayandaa. :hot:
 
JANIKOWSKI slots him a 50 yard FG and the RAIDERS lead 10-0.TUI's not pretty, but he's effective. He's scrambling a lot, and while he sometimes gets nailed, he also gets some nice gains too. His arm is relatively weak but he's got good awareness which means he usually hits the open guy.

Your time will come! You started the whole season and had a great rookie year! RANDALL GODFREY gets the start now but this will be his final season with the team and next year, you da man!
 
TUI runs for a great first down but then fires three straight incompletions, RAIDERS have to punt with time running out in the first half.

 
RECHE CALDWELL 50 yard TD reception! (in MADDEN he has developed into a great young WR)CHARGERS take the lead! 17-13 SAN DIEGO!

 
Another great run by TUI gets the RAIDERS into FG range with time about to expire in the half!JANIKOWSKI nails the 50 yarder and the score at the half is 17-16 to the hometown Chargers!

 
First RAIDERS drive of the 2nd half and DOUG JOLLEY has just made a great 39 yard catch to the CHARGERS 28!RAIDERS on the move!

 
NORTHCUTT FUMBLES THE PUNT RETURN!And CHARGER S JERRY WILSON picks it up and runs it 33 yards for the score!!LT2 then is stuffed on the 2 point conversion!CHARGERS lead 23-22!!

 
STEVE CHRISTIE slots home another FG - from 42 yards - and it's 26-22 CHARGERS, they're beginning to pull away now!

 
About three minutes left in the ballgame and a HUGE drive coming up for MARQUES TUIASOSOPO with the RAIDERS trailing by 4 points!
