Hey MB,

Just wanted to hear your guys stories were everything just goes wrong during a game for you at critical moments..

I played a guy online, and it was a good defensive matchup. Score was 0-0 all the way until the 3rd. Ended up losing 7-0.


A few things that annoyed me was on 3rd and short, my WR would drop a passes to the flat and was completely open..

Also, a drag route and the ball bounces off the WR helmet..WTF!!

Or my WR catches and breaks a tackle and gets YAC and then fumbles..

Anything happen like this to you guys?

i know its catch up AI but in my franchise on all-madden I fumbled 8 times in 1 game with 4 different players. Both my starting running back and backup fumbled twice, a tight end fumbled, my free safety intercepted a pass and then fumbled on the runback. After all this with a minute to go I held them to a field goal and was down by 4 or 5 so a touchdown would win. On the insuing kick off my returner fumbled for the second time in the game, although the first one wasnt lost. Dont ask why I took the kick out of the endzone either lol, I guess i just figured i couldnt possibly fumble any more.

What go's wrong for me is that my D gives up to many touchdowns in the running game and sometimes the passing game.

in a random ranked game my stream told me to use tampa... and i fumbled 5 times in 1 half..

needless to say i didnt make it to the final whistle...

i held a guy to 126 total yards..3 fumbles celek, djack and mccoy i lost by 3..the guy had the 49ers so it was milk city with gore

Hey MB,

What about when you gently tap X (360) to dive and run the clock out, but you still fumble? WTF!!!


I also dont get how i pound the ball with my starting RB, and then as soon as the backup comes on his first carry he fumbles..

What about when your QB over throws the ball and u get picked off that happens a lot in Madden.

What about when you swat a pass in the endzone and the receiver still catches the ball, as if you swatted it INTO his hands....no bueno.

Or when they swat one of your passes and an LB comes out of no where and picks off the swat.

Just hard to watch

Worst break i got was a few days ago. The first game i played in about a week, i was using Baltimore as always, the guy i played used the 49ers. He had one play that worked which was single back 2 TEs with a toss. No matter what i did i couldn't stop him for less than 4 yards. His D was suspect, as i drove down the field almost every possession. In the second qtr game was tied at 7-7 when, it had to be turbo/nano or something, blitzed me and was hit as soon as i did my 3 step drop, and i fumbled. He then went up 14-7. I got ball back in second half, ran a toss got 8 yards, last person forced a fumble. He recovered went up 21-7. Next drive i hit Ed Dickson on a quick post route, again, last guy forces fumble. He got another TD running with Gore, same play again. 4th qtr I have ball drive down, get tds force turnovers and get to 28-21. With less than a minute left i get down to the 2 yard line. I run a blast out of I Form, and guess what happened. I fumbled. Throughout the game I fumbled about 6 times. This has happened to me a few times, but ever this bad. It's almost always against the 49ers that i get these kind of bad breaks.

Guys,

you know what the sad part is, all of our bad breaks happend to all of us..lol.

i dont get it in madden. I try to do everything to prevent fumbles such as running out of bounds, or calling fair catches when i have room to run.. Definitely sucks

Bro we ALL get them. Some are completely bad luck http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=CmxKTnXrNBA and some are partially your fault http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=16CF60EFVAE Its just part of the game unfortunately.

Had 2 bad breaks yesterday.. 2 critical fumbles.. Pretty d@mn annoying.

Hit my WR on a slant, he turns it upfield, and the the defender makes him turn around and fumble.

2nd bad break, hit my slot WR on a curl. He turns around and fumbles..

Tie game bout 1:15 left you get the ball after kickoff and fumble KO, you already dont have TOs left, so he milks clock to .05 and kick FG for the playoff win

I got an interception in the end zone in a ranked game. My player gets hit sticked while he's still in the air catching the interception, and never gets his feet on the ground. Ball is knocked out of his hands and hits the floor. Ruled a fumble, and the offense recovers for a touchdown....(Inmy mind I'm saying this video game bs is only for hyped teams like the Saints)
