How often do you start a new Connected Career?

[MaddenSaints]

Title says it all. Do yo find yourself constantly starting a new Career after completing a season in another file? Why?

I switch all the time, its a bad habit. I keep trying to CCM a defensive player but they aren't quite involved enough to play 100%. I do the same thing with a QB ccm though...I usually switch after a few games because I'm tired of trying to call a balanced game plan when my RB has the awareness and vision of a baked potato. He'll have a massive gap off to the right and purposely run straight at the wall of defenders to the right.


I could play a coach CCM for ever if they let you control offensive players other than the QB. I used to have so much fun as a fullback crunching defenders and then switching to the RB. Don't get me wrong I enjoy playing QB but I really miss being able to play a RB/WR/TE and control the entire franchise.

I have no idea why they removed this but it's really sad they removed a fun feature.

Every time I create one I have an urge to start fresh with a different team, I need to try and not too.

I still at this point have never finished a season, and I am starting to think its because of my OCD issues, everything has to be perfect so my problems are
1) after every week I have new favorite teams and least favorite teams
2) I have to get a good draft class
3) I have to have realistic sliders
4) I have to have realistic stats
5) I must draft a WR/HB/QB/CB with my 1st Rnd pick
6) I must play with a bad team
7) If I crush a team (ie. 35-17) or if I beat a team alot better than me, I quit.

Thats pretty much it, at the beginning of the year when I get madden, I always start a franchise, but its funny cause that franchise I always get to a higher week than if I started one now

Examples:
Madden 11: Jaguars (9-7 Wild Card Round)
Madden 12: Cardinals (13-3 Divisional Round)
Madden 13: Panthers (2-5 week 8!)

and then here are franchises I started midway through the year
Madden 11: Dolphins (Week 4)
Madden 12: Eagles (Week 10)
Madden 13: Patriots (Week 4)

Same. I have four CCMs where I've done at least 4 seasons but constantly restart and do a new one.
