LOL. Yes Madden is definitely fixed sometimes. I had the craziest game last night...

First half: I'm blowing out the Chiefs so I start to play a little sloppy, trying to pad stats for some of my players. Costs me some points but no big deal, I go into the half up 14-0 and Im getting the ball to start the 3rd quarter.

Second half: The Chiefs come out with the '85 Bears defense and I can't move the ball at all. And Larry Johnson becomes simply untackleable, doesnt matter how many guys hit him.

Next thing I know there's 5 minutes left in the game and I'm down 7 fighting for my life. And then the unthinkable... they knock Palmer out of the game!!

But have no fear cuz Jeff Garcia was plucked off the waiver wire exactly for situations like this! The savvy vet ran a great 2 minute drill and threw the game tying pass on the final play of the game, followed by the game winning TD pass in OT.

Can you say Free Agent of the Year!!

Anyways my point was that if Madden wants you to lose there's not much you can do about. I had a similar experience against the Bears and they handed me my only CPU loss of the season. And I'm shocked I was able to pull out this Chiefs game, thought I was going down for sure.
