Madden NFL 10: Building a Super Bowl Contender

[RaychelSnr]

As an avid franchise player, I’m always looking for teams to rebuild or improve and develop into Super Bowl contenders year in and year out. So from time to time, I’m going to showcase a team and talk about what I would do to help build it into a team that works for me -- and hopefully for you.

I have tried to do this with the bucs but it seems like every year my team under performs. I have had a few good drafts and my offense in one of the best in the NFL after 6 seasons. My D Is good also but I just cant find a good mix. I have been 8-8, 9-7, 7-9. I always end up around in the middle every year. (I play 6-8 games a year). i like to do this to see how my team is built compaired to the sim engine. Last year my QB made the pro bowl in his second year so hopefully I am ready to make a run to the playoffs this year.

You can't really consider taking a team that WAS in the Super Bowl last year, and say that you're building a contender, Bucs or Rams or Lions those are rebuilding jobs. I think when the The Show 10 comes out I'll see if I can turn the Phillies into contenders.

Instead of focusing on a per team basis, why not provide the prime abilities to look for for each position first and discuss why each ability is important? Unless this already exists somewhere? This is something I have looked for / hoped EA would provide for several years and still never found.

I'm playing Franchise mode with the Cardinals too and you have made some very good suggestions. I'm interested in hearing more about how things progress.

I agree. This seems something we all just guess at. I saw a great post on how the overall rating is calculated, but what would really help is knowing, for each of our styles, who would be the best fit of players (regardless of overall rating).
