Ir Update
Yo i’m in an online league and the commissioner forgot to turn your injuries off for the preseason. I put my player on IR because of the trainer ability thinking I would be able to get him back before the beginning of the season. I was also told even if I i’m in an online league and the commissioner forgot to turn your injuries off for the preseason. I put my player on IR because of the trainer ability thinking I would be able to get him back before the beginning of the season. I was also told even if I don’t get him back, I just had to wait four weeks which is a new rule in the NFL for him to come back. He’s cleared, but he still unable to come back but yet I got a message saying that he was ready to come back. MAN FIX FRANCHISE AND INJURY PREVENTION.Another franchise mode live roster update
Is there going to be another update to franchise mode to start at free agency or the draft instead of the Super Bowl? Especially after all the moves that are being made and players retiring that won’t in madden (dahlman) and some that will in madden but won’t in real life (Rodgers).Madden Franchise Suggestion List for Madden 27

I've loved and played this game all my life, so I look forward to seeing how it shapes out in the future. Thank you to all that take the time to read and consider the feedback in this post.Stacking Coaching Abilities is a problem
I run several CFM Leagues. In my Leagues, we have found Users stacking Coaching Abilities to get an overpowered advantage. Also, in the case of the “Camp Counselor” coaching ability Users may triple stack the ability for the ENTIRE SEASON. This has caused the creation of SUPER TEAMS for those willing to use this tactic. In some cases Users have Teams with 5+ Rookie X-Factors. 30+ players with abilities on their Teams. Some guys are fielding 11 players on Offense and 11 players on Defense with Abilities. Camp Counselor should only be allowed during Training Camp in my opinion. Is this intended functionality? Will this continue in the next version of Madden 27?MADDEN ONLINE MONEY FRANCHISE
We need a few more users until we are filled. It is a $20 entry league for a pot of $700+. It will go up more because of dev shop. once we are finally filled I will go live on twitch and randomize the names of all 32 people who payed. That will then be the order we pick teams in. Additionally each team will receive 2 legends of their choice from the team they gets history. It is completely discord ran so here is the link. https://discord.gg/Kjj5Qk4cWorse one yet
I deleted this game because it feels fundamentally broken and heavily animation-driven rather than skill-based. The CPU consistently wins through scripted-feeling animation exchanges, especially in key moments. Defenders react to routes before the ball is even thrown, making it feel like the AI is reading inputs instead of playing realistically. Receivers rarely fight for the ball in contested situations, while defenders consistently play it perfectly — even lower-rated players (70–85 overall) perform like 99 overall legends. Meanwhile, my 99-rated players struggle to get separation against defenders with significantly lower speed ratings. That rating imbalance completely destroys immersion. The offensive line logic is also frustrating. Nearly every play results in instant block-shed animations, giving me less than three seconds in the pocket. There’s no consistency — sometimes protection holds, other times defenders disengage unrealistically fast with no logical reason. Overall, the game relies too heavily on predetermined animations rather than physics, positioning, or user timing. It feels more like an arcade system than a football simulation, and even as an arcade experience, it lacks competitive balance. Until skill and ratings matter more than hidden boosts and animation priority, it’s hard to take this game seriously.Sat Feb 28th fantasy draft! Want in? Must have discord!!

Yes, you’ll be playing cpu - 16 users totalFranchise player appearances
This year it’s a major problem with the draft classes and editing them. If you edit a draft class and change the players appearance and then export that file it doesn’t save. Instead when you draft them in the game every player in the draft class is now a generic player with no accessories and the same face. Very frustrating especially when you spend hours editing a classSkill level bug in franchise?
My friends and I are seeing a bug where our main menu settings is overwriting the franchise set skill level. The franchise is set to all madden but if you have all-pro or rookie set at the main menu then that is the difficultly of the game. This is making it unfair for those who are playing all madden cpu vs lower cpu skill. Is this a known issue? Anyone have a way to fix this?Madden 27 Needs to Modernize Generated Player Faces
Madden 27 really needs to modernize the generated player face system, ideally by aligning with the EA College Football head system and using AI or procedural generation. Right now Franchise Mode suffers badly from immersion issues where rookies look far older than their listed age, heads appear too small or poorly proportioned for player bodies, and after only a few draft classes the league becomes filled with identical, PS2-era looking 40+ year old clones. This completely breaks the Franchise experience, especially during draft presentations where new prospects look unrealistic and repetitive. Other sports games handle this far better, including EA College Football, EA NHL, MLB The Show, and NBA 2K, all of which generate younger, more varied, and better-proportioned players over long careers. Madden is currently behind both other EA franchises and competing sports titles in this area. Player identity is foundational to Franchise Mode, and when the league becomes visually unbelievable after a few seasons, it kills long-term engagement. Madden 27 is the right opportunity to address this and bring generated players up to modern standards.Madden 26 updated rosters not working
I'm in Xbox series X. I tried downloading the latest rosters, and (in the creation center tab) it showed that rosters were loaded. But when I attempt to load a offline solo franchise with the updated rosters, it just defaults back to the base (non-updated) rosters. I've tried everything, and both Ashish (ea representative) and I agreed that this was a most likely a game glitch. I don't know why, despite it saying I loaded the rosters, they're clearly not loaded whenever I try to do something in franchise mode. Does anyone know a way to fix this, or is this Ea needing to fix their game?
