      What I liked about that was the games played like real a football game. Id establish a running game to set up play action and my passing game. Once my passing game was established, Id run screens and draws.
      Madden was just about glitching the system. Although when playing Miami, Kellen Winslow Jr was impossible to stop. Some Miami players would just run the same play over and over. Those games werent fun.
      The fun games were coming back to win after being down 21-0 at half. Or even losing in double OT thrillers.
