I've gotta say (not bragging or anything) that I've yet to lose a superbowl game playing Madden (regardless of difficulty level). Must be those skins lol......j/k....I couldn't help it lol.....

I think I'll stick with my "next gen" trend of using the Texans...

I usually play with my browns. Sometimes I do the Pack because I like to play games in the snow, and it mixes it up from the AFC North.

I'll just look at the ratings this year and probably make a decision on the fly. It will more than likely be one of those two teams.

The Purple gang.

I always run with the Lions. its my team. I am a pocket passer so it only makes sense. i like to build them up and make them respectable. I also make trades to basically who i think they should have drafted. (in 05 it was Merriman instead of BMW, etc.)

In every Madden since 1999 (regardless if I bought the game or not) I've always won the Super Bowl with the Bills at least once.

Just the thought of doing that in a videogame is incentive enough for me to try it again every year!

I used to play as my my favorite team, New England, but franchise is not much fun starting at the top. So for the past few years I've been using the Bears and Cards.

So basically. sometimes I have to build a defense, and sometimes I have to build an offense.

I remember in 2k5 using the bears and never being able to get a good QB or have a RB do well for more than 1-3 years...something bad always happened to mess up their careers.

I can't wait to roll with my Bucs and our new QB Brett Favre!! haha Heres hoping anyways!!

# 31 Lunchbox @ 08/06/08 09:39 PM

The Raiders are going to be a fun team to play with this year. I usually pick a middle of the road team like Buffalo, Arizona, or Oakland and build them.

I'll probably be my 'Queens at some point, but I hate Tarvaris Jackson. John David Booty will be my starter.

Hey wait a minute!! We don't call them the "Queens" till week 7 or so damn it!

# 33 thescoop @ 08/06/08 10:22 PM

sticking with the Pack and firing Ted Thompson and keeping Favre as my starter for another year or so.

# 34 MiamiWarrior @ 08/06/08 11:28 PM

I'll probably use the Raiders, Chiefs, and Cardinals in Franchise mode.

# 35 Hassan Darkside @ 08/06/08 11:57 PM

Cowboys first for me, then maybe the Vikings or Lions.

# 36 TheBrothers24 @ 08/07/08 12:07 AM

Gotta run with my hometown chargers first and after i run with them, ill build another team from the groun up. Probably the falcons

# 37 Steven123 @ 08/07/08 12:21 AM

I'll do the same thing I do every year, play with the Giants. Then when I get bored, I'll rebuild a team, realistically! Falcons and the Dolphins are looking real interesting right now. When I was doing the Dolphins franchise in 08 I would sign Josh McCown from FA and make him the starter, funny that it actually happened IRL

# 38 blklightning @ 08/07/08 01:08 AM

i have to roll with my cowboys. although, i can't believe the vikings aren't on that list. they are definitely my second pick to run a franchise with.

# 39 TheBadazz @ 08/07/08 01:58 AM

Bears baby!!!!

# 40 bighurt27 @ 08/07/08 06:18 AM

Chiefs then Cowboys
