VARIOUS HINTS AND PLAYING
TIPS
Unlimited creation points: Go to "Rosters", then choose
"Edit Player". Select the players that you want to be rated 99. Go to
his attributes, then increase everything.
Break tackles: To easily break tackles as a running back, alternately press
L1 and R1 immediately before you get tackled.
Over the shoulder catch: When throwing the ball to a receiver that is
running a fly route, lob the pass (tap the button) instead of throwing a bullet
(holding the button). The receiver should catch the ball over his shoulder.
Easy tokens: Play two-minute drill and choose to play four players, all
with your profile. Set "Fire" the defense and the Vikings as your
teams. Next, use Singleback 4WR All Streaks for touchdowns all day.
Easy tokens 2: At the main menu, go into "Features", select
"Rosters", then go to the team you would like to defend you. For
example, select the Bengals, then go to their defense (CB, FS, SS and
Linebackers and Defensive Linemen). Change all of there speed attributes down to
0. Make a note of the original values so they can be restored later. Then, go to
the Two Minute Drill, select the Bengals as the defense, and change the
difficulty to All-Madden.. Select your team with your profile (Vikings
recommended) and you will rack up points against a team that cannot catch you at
all. Put Randy Moss at running back for even more points when you score or just
throw to him always.
Get any player: Use the following trick to get any player in a trade
without the other team rejecting. In the franchise mode, create a player as a
quarterback and move his attributes until you get to 99 points. Then, put his
injury and stamina down to 0. This will not change the attribute point level.
Sign him as a free agent then trade him to any team for anybody you want. When
you play the team he is playing for, after a couple of plays he will either
become injured or will be taken out of the game for his weak stamina. No team
will refuse your trade and you will have any player you want on your team.
Get any player 2: When playing in franchise mode you can trade for any
player you want without having that trade turned down. Go into the create a
player menu and create a QB that is all 99s. Sign that player to your team then
trade him to another team that has a player that you want. To make the trick
even better, you can add another player from their team to the trade that is in
the 80s -- this will be a 2-for-1 trade. When the trade is complete, exit out to
the franchise main menu and enter back into the create a player menu. Go back
into the QB's attributes and edit them all the way down to 0s and then go back
into the trade screen. Take the second player in the deal and trade him back to
the team for the created QB. You can then start the whole process over by going
into the create a player menu and editing his attributes all the way up again.
Cheap players that are good: To make a receiver go to create player and
create the player as a quarterback. Give the player very low passing abilities
(zero) and very high catching and ball handling levels. The player will cost
very little because his quarterback skills are bad. You will have to sign him as
a quarterback but use him as a wide receiver. His salary will never go up
because he will not play as a quarterback. You can also change his number and
attributes in the edit player screen. You can also make a dirt cheap fullback by
eliminating his receiving skills.
Cheaper player: When you have an expensive player, you can release him
and sign him for less money.
Lower team's overall salary: One way to lower a team's overall salary is
to cut certain players' salaries. You can do this with players that have low
attributes but high salaries. To do this, go to "Rosters" and select
"Edit player". Select a player on the team that has a low overall
rating (anything under the low 80s) and has a high salary. When you choose to
edit the players "Attributes", you will notice that his salary
decreases. Do not change anything in his attributes and exit out. You have now
made your first budget cut of the season.
Easier gold in mini-camp mode: Create a player and trade him to the team
that you are doing the drill with. Make sure that the created player is playing
the position of the person that you are trying to complete the drill with. For
example, Ronde Barber is the corner back in the Defensive Swat Pass drill. If
you create a corner back and make his attributes all 99, put him on the
Buccaneers and make him the starting or number one cornerback. Then, he will do
the drill. You may do this with any person on any drill. You may also make the
people who you are going against in the drill "sorrier". If you know
their names, go to their attributes and turn them all the way down.
John Madden's name spoken: Create a new team and name the new coach
"John Madden". Melissa will be able to say his name during the game.
Better quarterback accuracy: Note what kind of quarterback you are
passing with. If you have someone such as Kurt Warner, you may have better
accuracy if you set your feet, then throw the ball. If you have someone like
Donovan McNabb, you might have better luck throwing on the run.
Better draft pick: If you have a first place team and you know its going
to be very late in the draft, trade with a last place team. Sometimes you can
even get a first and second round pick for just your first. This is a very good
way to get young players on your already good team.
Better trades: If you play with the salary cap penalties turned on in
franchise mode, it is better to trade the player(s) you wish to cut for another
team's draft pick. You will avoid penalties, keep your roster from becoming
full, and get another draft pick.
