2003: Take a commanding lead on a team and watch their QB enter god mode. A friend and I would do franchises and compare our stats and shit; we used fairly long quarters and found our pass defense was pure trash because Peyton Manning would have 150 yards through 3 quarters and then hit 4 70-yard TDs in the fourth. Also, offensive linemen were impossible to build up because the game never gave out pancakes.

2004: I did a franchise where I was the only team with a decent OL and every other OL in the league somehow fell below 70. On the other hand, I had a season where Deuce McAllister had 2500 yards and 30+ TDs and went down a point at the end of the season.

2005: Lord, the draft gave you the most hilariously fucked up players. A RB with 98 speed and 36 quickness, so you never actually saw that speed, since he'd be drilled behind the line every damn time. One dimensional OL guys with 92 pass block and 52 run block.

I then got into Madden online, but it was never great....wayy too buggy. Then I discovered FIFA and I pretty much ditched all other games.

I currently don't even have a console, but I occasionally price PS4s, but I know that's not a smart investment.

QB vision was single handedly implemented, because the year before you had Mike Vick being unstoppable. I remember people would use WRs at QB too and it would just be unrealistic with the shit they were pulling off.
