My buddy Brandon hates it when I return kicks. I like to cut back a lot, and that helps miss his attempts at tackling.
Although my favorite return of all time has to be a kick off to him actually. He broke loose, and got to the 5 when I tackled his legs. As he's falling to the ground, the ball pops out. I scoop it up, and run it back the other direction. By this time, everyone was on one side, so it was easy to run at a slant to miss everyone. It was also the last kick off of the game, so no challenge. He was pissed.
That moment, and catching an interception in the endzone that would have been the "death nail" only to return it for a TD and win the game at the last second. Those will stand with me for a while.

That same thing happened to me many years ago for 06. I ran back a kickoff to win the game by 3, got called back for holding and then did it again. My friend was pissed.

Just had a great game on Live. I rarely play online, and usually when I do I have terrible experiences, but this one was excellent.
I was the Ravens, he was the Saints. He threw a pick on his first possession, then forced me to a three and out. He scored on his next possession, held me to a field goal.
I got the ball back with about 2 minutes left in the 2nd quarter, fumbled the ball, he recovered it but it was overturned and I got the ball back. Drove down the field to about his 35 yard line, threw a short route to the tight end Dickson and broke a couple tackles for the go-ahead score. Went into halftime 10-7.
I had first possession after the half, he held me to a field goal. Came back and immediately scored a touchdown, 14-13 Saints.
Forced me to a three and out, scored again, went for the two point conversion so I couldn't tie it but failed. I drove down on the next drive and scored making it 20-20.
With a little over four left in the fourth, he drove down to my 12 yard line. I stopped him, he went for it on fourth down and couldn't convert. I took it all the way down the nine yard line with 58 seconds left and he stopped me on third down. I went for a field goal, and between some poor direction and a little lag, I missed it.
He gets the ball back with under a minute to go, drives down to the 50 yard line, Ngata gets a sack and forced fumble. Suggs picks it up and I run it in for the go ahead score, 27-20.
He gets the ball back and gets it down to the 30 yard or so with 10 seconds to go, his receiver catches the pass, he runs it, I tackle him at about the five yard line as time runs out.
Hell of a game to say the least.

I personally hate playing online. When my buddy comes over we'll play fairly matched up teams. Niners-Titans, Colts-Patriots etc. Every time I get online, either Madden or NCAA, Ill select my favorite teams to play with (Niners and Hurricanes) and the other person always goes out and gets the Saints or Patriots or Alabama or Ohio St....teams that are clearly much more superior then mine. It just takes the fun away knowing you're probably going to lose.

I see there was a Raiders one starter as well as a Giants at one point. What do people here think about Madden Dynasties? It seems the others kinda died off, would I be better just to start it up and leave it on Operationsports?

I have a team at each level i like to play with so ill play as Chiefs with lower team opponents, and Falcons at medium/higher team opponents

Just beat the first season of Franchise mode beating the Panthers in the Superbowl. Close game but fairly simple.

Hell of a game to say the least. Nice! i love games like that. A couple months back played a game, picked the Jags (i like Jones-Drew's run game) against the Jets, had a horrible 1st half trailing 21 - 0, managed to come back with a couple field goals and 2-point conversions and trail by 1 at the half, the second half finally grabbed the lead but lost it, despite my crappy passing game my run game was pretty good, ended up getting the win 32-31 after a 20+ yard TD from MJD, probably the most exciting game i played in a while

Best game for me was playing against one of my buddies. He went up 35-0 at the end of the first quarter. I knew I was dead but............. The next quarter I put u it up 70 points. So at the half it was 70-35. Begining of the 3rd I kick he fumbles I return it TD. 77-35 next I kick it he get's to about the 20. First play he throws it, INT and take it back. 84-35. He quit. HAHA.
Also I tried playing on rookie level once in franchise final score Cardinals 203 Texans 0. I took a pic of that one. I will never ever play on rookie again. It took me and hour and a half to finish that game.

Nice, Yeah for some reason i find returning Kickoffs, interceptions, fumbles for TD's more exciting than Pass or run plays

I've been practicing the onside kick a lot, so I'm excited for the next time I play against someone so I can use it.

Had a great game last night in the third year of my Ravens franchise.
Week 1 against the Bengals. It was a shootout in every sense of the word. I was down 28-21 with just under 2 minutes to go in the game. Drove down the field and was able to tie it up with only a few seconds left. It ended in overtime 31-28.
