Hey Guys, this info is from a post by Designer Larry Richart posted on the EA Sports Blog last week. We have taken the news and digested it, here are the top 13 changes that really stuck out in our mind.
13. Post Snap Controls –
Once you snap the ball in both EA Sports Football titles this season, you will feel comfortable. Both games now have the same post snap controls from pitching the ball to using the same WR icons. Now, you will no longer pump fake when trying to throw ... Read More

Today, we explore how to get your best players in position to win! Here are some key substitution concepts that will make you a better Madden 11 player.
1. Use the speed package - Madden 11 is all about speed. Using this package will get you more CB's on the field in place of slow LB's who can't matchup with a 4 WR scheme. Before selecting your formation on defense, use the RS to select the "speed package" ... Read More

This is a little less sim, but still an important concept for football fans everywhere!
Unbumpables
Questions to ask ourselves!
Are we being bumped? Which WR’s are being bumped? Why are they bumping us?
First, you must recognize if the defense IS playing bump and run. It is a strategy that good players use to bring pressure and throw off timing. “Pressing the WR” has been effective year after year in Madden. If the CB’s slide up close to your WR’s then ... Read More

Here are some key points which will cost average players Madden games against higher level players. If you consistently make these mistakes, you will be destined to your current level and will have trouble beating top competition.
1. Getting Away From Your Gameplan -
If you don’t play with set audibles and some type of consistent set’s of plays then you are going to lose many games. Even if the game is going well early, you will be more apt to make drastic changes and pick a ... Read More

ZFarls wants to talk about pounding the magic bean today in Madden 11!
So MB Nation, NCAA 11 comes out and I literally find the best run in the game the first time I played.
Naturally, Madden doesn’t have the exact same play or success when running it. So I crutch back to passing the ball and only running in obvious situations. Mostly out of goal-line without a good quick passing option.
When are you running the ball, does your opponent know? Either by game ... Read More

With every new season, a gamer must look into his heart and ask himself, has this game changed enough for me to drop down the dinero for it?
For kids, it can be hard to scrounge up the 60 dollars and get a ride to the mall. For adults it can be even harder to justify spending the cash in the midst of a downturn when other responsibilities like your child’s braces may be popping up.
Others, may buy every NCAA but find Madden similar and only buy it once every few years. How many FIFA ... Read More

Stick Skills! Whose got em? They aren't for sale. However, if you follow some basic football principles along with good Madden ideology even you can become a master of the analog.
Why do people struggle with stick skills?
Most new players think they aren't good enough to play on any other spot than the d-line. When they play as the safety, they get exploited for long touchdowns and aren't sure where to line up. In turn, they are afraid to get the experience of playing in the ... Read More

Here we go, with Round 1 of the draft coming up tonight, lets take a look at the players who will be Studs in Madden 11. If you find a lineman on this list, you can punch us in the face. Guys that you want to make plays with only.
10. Jason Pierre Paul - Personally, I expect him to be a bust along the lines of a Calvin Pace and his 28 AWR. HOWEVER, this guy did like 11 back handsprings on sportscenter in full pads. So, Im afraid that if he's not on the list, he will hop over ... Read More
