I guess I'll be the dissenter and say that Madden is not an awful game. I think it is fun. I still get into it. Does it have its issues? Of course. Should EA get a free pass for their questionable decisions on features and what aspects of the game to focus on? No. But... its still a fun game. You have to use the sliders to make it playable, though, I'll admit. But I don't buy it every year. I usually buy it every 2 or 3 years and just play that one until I feel like getting the newer version.

He's really good. Makes sense.

I think they should.

He made tons of plays like that in Buffalo, though. He got injured. And then he got cut. He'd still be playing in Buffalo if it was up to him, I'm sure.

Not by me. Tre has always been a class act. I wish him nothing but success. I would be disappointed if fans ever boo him.

Yep. Too many teams get sucked into the "black for the sake of black" cheap phenomenon. I'm glad the Bills haven't yet. I feel the same about matte helmets. Gross.

Fun to see, but nope.

I find it a bit strange why everyone, players and media, seem to be trying to prop up Lamar Jackson constantly. He is no doubt a good QB, but he is nowhere near a 98 madden rating, or the best QB in the NFL Top 100. Very strange, especially seeing that everyone always seems to be ready to criticize and underate Josh Allen.

That is amazing!

Lamar Jackson ahead of Mahomes? Heck, any player ahead of Mahomes? Kind of a joke. The top 100 seems to be getting worse, not better. I think it was a novelty that a lot of players took interest in for awhile, and now it isn't. And do they not even make the cool videos anymore? Lame. That was the best thing about the top 100. No point in it now.

Makes sense. Buffalo has been among the top most successful teams since 2020, and has an extremely exciting offense led by a superstar QB who routinely has amazing plays through the air and on the ground. We're very spoiled. I watch most other teams and they are seriously boring now. I used to watch other teams and wonder why we couldn't look like them. How things have changed ... Sure, but those aren't the countries that scored high for the Bills. It was mostly European and Scandinavian countries that scored high.

I dislike him.

I agree. However, we need to see how he is kicking in actual games. Kicking is all mental, so he has to prove that he is capable when the bullets are flying.

The game was actually pretty decent up until the last couple of minutes when the rain made the ball slick. And then they canceled it. Usually the hall of fame games are unwatchable, but this one was decent.

Already being discussed:

I was pretty annoyed when seeing receivers moving forward before the snap and not getting flagged for it last year. It is good that it is a focus, but they didn't need a rule change. Just enforce the rule.

It's always the worst game, but I'll at least turn it on.

Are people really saying Caleb Williams? That is very surprising to me. I don't think he would sniff the top 10. He hasn't even played a down in the NFL. Better prospects than him have busted.

Peterman looked pretty decent in camp and preseason, though. Nobody thought he would suck so spectacularly once the real games started.

He should probably stay away from draft evaluations, though. He was a poor GM.

Browning has been shanking punts, I heard. He has a big leg but no consistency.

Only elites are in the 90's. Most good to great starters will be in the 80's. Average starters will be high 70's. Functional starters and good backups will be in the mid 70's.

They said week to week for Edwards, so that means it is pretty significant.

Oh, gotcha. I didn't realize you were talking about the drought.

You said the seasons were over by November.
