Nope. John Madden football was the best rendition of the game, back in 1988 (yes, I played the tar out of it when it came out).
Ha, I did too!! I still remember the version a couple years later where the ambulance would drive in the field ( running over guys) when the QB got hurt

I don't play Madden. I'm wondering how you can compare the two and say one is a better game? It's an entirely different sport.
It’s not sport vs sport, It’s the structure of MUT vs the structure of DD....MUT is way better in so many ways. Just a few examples...
You can earn tons of coins every week just playing the weekly modes - Solo battles & Weekend League...The Show doesn’t offer anything like that. In the show unless you’re a great player that can go 12-0 or make WS or spend tons of time working the market you’re not gonna make a lot of coins easily.
In MUT most good players have a power up card that starts as around a 70 overall that you can spend training on to build them up to a high 90’s card. In DD you are completely at the mercy of what SDS drops to you.
In MUT you can increase your team’s attributes by adding different types of chemistry to the team, stadiums, uniforms & coaches.
And the gameplay...You don’t have the RNG that you have in the show. The only RNG is when non user controlled players like a offensive tackle & a pass rusher are fighting.
All that is bad man. No one wants that here. And you earn tons of stubs just playing stuff here. Way more "coins" than you can get on Madden. DD in MLB TS is easily the best fantasy build your own team type of sports game mode. Guarantee I am not in the minority on that.
And the RNG? That is 90% of your game in Madden. You cannot control all those other guys.
But honestly I think you are trolling or kidding because you did just name all the worst things about Madden now that I think about it.
lol not trolling bro. Like I said in the OP, Just how I feel & was curious how others felt is all. You do you.

Dude, the last madden champ this year had a punter at qb. You cant point any fingers at any other game after realizing that.

I honestly really thought you might have been joking. because things like having a card that is like a 70 JJ Watt, who has never been a 70, and you have to do stuff to get it up to his prime numbers is silly. And I am just using that as an example.
Also the RNG in Madden is crazy. And the biggest kicker is how easy it is to complete the collections and earn stubs without spending any money or grinding your life away. While in Madden you better get out the CC.But like you said, to each their own. If it is a game and you enjoy it then that is great. I will eventually get it and mess around a bit. Just cannot get into it like I use to.

The addition of the Ambulance was HUGE! I'll always remember the first time it came out on the field, I'm pretty sure I leveled my brothers QB by randomly hitting wrong buttons and getting lucky.

I literally haven’t played anything other than MLB 19 & MLB 20 since March of last year. I have thought about another runthrough of Horizon: Zero Dawn or maybe Spider-man, but, nah. If I am going to play a video game it’s gonna be this one.
Consider playing Ghost of Tsushima and Witcher 3 if you haven't already.

I personally move onto to FIFA for the fall and winter, because I'm a Buddhist, and suffering is a part of life. Then I quite FIFA when each new Show is released, rinse and repeat.

That was incredible. That guy was amazing. He always audibled to the right formation & was so good at setting up his blocks. Never seen anybody on the professional circuit run like he did. Gotta tip your hat - Just amazing.

I’m gonna play both a lot still but in no way is madden better then the show lol btw I’ve never gone 12-0 or made ws or worked the market and I’ve made a lot of stubs this year
-
I have loved my first experience but I earned equal number of coins in much less time on madden than in mlb and equal quality team

I played more organized football than any other sport, but I think I like it the least. And out of principle I’m also not a fan of how the NFL handled(s) kneeling or concussions.
I haven’t watched the NBA since Jordan left the Bulls.
Does any NHL game have something like DD?
MLB is my only sports game. No matter how flawed it is, baseball is love.

When you can win a BIG tournament by running 0 pass plays ( he drafted a punter for his QB spot ), you know the game sucks.
Can not even compare the two. EA is a big money grab , the biggest. Sure they give you coins, but everyone gets them. This in turn inflates market. Does not matter how many coins they give you, if the market just raises the price.
Show+nms can thrive. Madden + good luck nms, you will need it.

Yes, but I'm not really huge into football, play MLB year-round
I will play MLB. I normally fall away for a bit, and go to Madden then, but I think I will stay with this game this year.

There are good games out/coming out that I'll be playing. For sports, it's baseball and golf (new sequel to Golf Club in 10 days I think). I don't care for Madden or NBA, personally. I bought Ghost of Tsushima and that is fantastic. CyberPunk is due in November, which will take a lot of my time. I'll play some baseball/golf here and there, but taking my time currently in Ghost and will do so in CyberPunk as well. I'm torn on the Avengers game. It's a good time to be a gamer.

The guy that won that tournament was amazing. As I told the guy that mentioned it earlier. That player did the best job running the ball on the professional circuit that I’ve ever seen. 99.99999% of people could not win a game in that tournament doing that. In 20 years people will still be talking about that as an amazing feat. That’s not the game, That was just an amazing player.
As far as what you’re saying about no money spent. All I can say is my personal experience....I spent $100 on Madden this year because I wanted Troy Polamalu the day he dropped. The rest of the year I didn’t spend anything and just used my coins won from weekend league & solo battles and have a 98 overall team whereas I dropped $1200 on the show to get Mantle day one. But it’s definitely possible to have a 99 no money spent team in either game.

No more Madden for me. I quit after what really amounted to was just roster updates for $60. I play MLB solid until mid February then I play COD, but am looking forward to the new 2K golf game.

Online play for both MLB and Madden are both trash. All about the meta. I prefer the menus of Madden to the menus of MLB. I did break a million stubs ( no flex as I am sure people have way more stubs) on MLB for the first time.
