Enter "WROA0R" as a code to get the QB On Target card. This card makes
your Quarterback have 100% accuracy for one half.
Mistake Free card -
Enter "XL7SP1" as a code to get the Mistake Free card. This card makes
it impossible for you to throw an interception or fumble the ball for
one half.
Lame Duck card -

your opponent to throw nothing but lob passes for one half, which allows
the defense more time to react to the ball, and leads to more
deflections and interceptions.
Easy Madden Tokens -
Use the following trick to get easy Madden Tokens in Two Minute Drill
mode. Go to the roster of the team you are going to use and raise their
stats so that their entire offensive line, fullback, and halfback are
very good. Then, decrease the speed and awareness for the defensive
players on the team you are going to play against. Next, go to Two
Minute Drill mode and set the difficulty to All-Madden. If you plan to
run against the defense, try a HB Toss to run on the outside. If you
pass, throw Hail Marys the entire time. Your receivers that are good
should beat the defensive backs, especially if you make them very tall
and skinny.
Set the game difficulty to "All-Madden". Then, go into the AI settings
and set all of the human stats (QB Accuracy, O-line, Pass Blocking,
etc.) to the maximum. Next, set all the CPU stats to the lowest. Set the
quarters to five minutes and choose a team with a good running back,
such as Denver, Seattle, or Washington. It will still be difficult to
pass even with the CPU stats are as low as they are. You should be able
to get well over 500 rushing yards and 700 Madden Tokens per game.
Better lead blocking -
The trick to effective blocking is learning when to use the different
blocks. Impact Blocks are more effective if you have a size advantage
against the player you are blocking, while Cut Blocks are more effective
if the defender is bigger than you. Turn Blocking works best for
offensive linemen when they are trying to create an interior hole for
the running back. If you get beat and you must resort to dirty tactics,
try Holding.
Better running -
When running the ball, the Highlight Stick is the best way to beat a
defender in the open field. Press Up on the Highlight Stick to cause the
ball carrier to play to their strengths and attempt to either power
through or quickly shake past the defender. Press Left, Right, or Down
on the Highlight Stick to make the ball carrier do a quick juke move in
the specified direction. These moves are great for keeping your opponent
guessing.
Cut Moves are a quick way to change the direction of the ball carrier
without having to lose too much speed. If you are running in a certain
direction and the defense is closing in, cutting in a different
direction can be a good way to get past the defenders. These moves are
best done by quicker running backs with high agility ratings.
When the running back has the ball in the backfield, you can use the Cut
Moves to get through the holes in the offensive line. These moves are
called Behind the Line Jukes, and they can only be performed when the
ball carrier is approaching the offensive line. These moves allow the
ball carrier to turn his hips and squeeze through small holes in the
offensive line that normally he would not be able to get through.
Avoiding injuries -
When you think one of your players may be injured on offense, hurry the
play up and they will usually get back up.
Choosing correct parents in Superstar mode -
When starting Hall Of Fame mode, certain parents will give you large
boosts in key stats. If you want a receiver that is very fast, choose a
Hall of Fame WR father with the "He was the Randy Moss of his time"
note. Your player should have 95 or higher speed. If you want a fast
quarterback, look for a Pro Bowl or Hall of Fame QB father with the "He
was the Michael Vick of his time" note. Your player will be very fast
and have good throwing power. Note: If you choose a father with the "He
was his era's Tom Brady" note, he will be very slow (55 or less speed)
and not be able to outrun anyone.
Better agent in Superstar mode -
Answer the interview questions as a team player. Then when you hire an
agent, more of them will want to sign with you.
