                                  Introduction
================================================================================

  Welcome to my first football FAQ!  I hope it goes a little more smoothly
  than my (incomplete) baseball FAQ.  :)  Anyway, if you have a question
  about the game, specifically the PlayStation 2 version, let me know.
  Before you attempt to email me, please read through the Frequently Asked
  Questions section in this FAQ.  That section has some of the more commonly-
  asked questions and answers, and you may save both of us some time by
  reading that section first.  When emailing me, please put "Madden 2007"
  in the Subject Line.  This will likely result in a faster response.  I
  should warn you about my response rate.  Typically, I respond to about 90%
  of my emails, but because of the popularity of the Madden franchise, I
  cannot guarantee that sort of response rate, but I'll certainly try to
  keep up with all of the mail.

  If you don't want to use email, an alternative is a message board.  Below
  is an address for the Madden 2007 (PS2) message boards on GameFAQs.  There
  are others who visit that forum, who I am sure can and will help answer
  any question you may have.

           http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/gentopic.php?board=932190

  If you don't have a question and would like to suggest adding a strategy
  to the guide, email me also, with the "Madden 2007" in the Subject Line,
  and I'll credit you for it, should I decide to use it.

  Version 0.5  -  Sept 01, 2006  - 271 KB

    I added six more Madden cards to the list.  The list is nearing completion,
    but is still missing some.  If you have any of them, let me know!  I also
    added to the Superstar and the Franchise sections of the guide.

================================================================================

  Madden 2007 has more than just one or two different game modes.  Below you
  will find a brief description as to what you can expect to find while in
  that part of the game.

    PLAY NOW

       Challenge either the CPU or a friend to a game of football.  This
       obviously isn't a season game or anything like that - it's an
       exhibition game.  You get the option to choose teams, stadiums,
       uniforms, etc.  This is also a great way to introduce yourself into
       the basics of the Madden game series.

    PLAY ONLINE

       With certain versions of the game, you can play online against
       friends or even people you've never met before.    Depending on the
       game system you're using, you may need to buy additional hardware, 
       so be sure to consult your user manual when attempting to use this
       game mode.

    FRANCHISE

       This is one of the older and most popular game modes in the Madden
       series, and most games aren't viewed complete without this mode.
       Build your dream team for up to 30 seasons.  You can change coaches
       and draft players just like the General Managers do in real life.

    NFL SUPERSTAR: HALL OF FAME

       In the Superstar mode, you create a player and take him from the NFL
       Draft and hope that he makes it into the prestigious NFL Hall of Fame.
       You take tests, do interviews, go to practices, get endorsement deals,
       and of course play football.

    NFL NETWORK

       Sterling Sharpe walks you through three select plays on both offense
       and defense for each team.  After he describes the play to you, you
       can practice the play against your team's defense for as long as you
       wish.

    TOURNAMENT

       Set up your own tournament with 8 or 16 teams and see who comes out
       the winner.

    MINI-CAMP

       Tour NFL cities in the Madden cruiser and fine-tune your playing
       skills in the Mini-Camp mode.  You can also earn trophies along
       the way in various drills for Madden Cards.

    RUNNING ATTACK

       Select two teams to test the ability to run the ball and then defend
       against the run.  On offense, you'll use the main running back, and
       on defense, you'll control one of the linebackers.


    TWO MINUTE DRILL

       Earn valuable points and Madden Cards, while working on your skills
       at the same time.

    PRACTICE

       Work on your playing skills in practice.  This allows you to better
       familiarize yourself with your team's playbook and players.


================================================================================
                                Player Positions                         (00003)
================================================================================

  There are a number of positions for players to play at.  If you aren't at
  all familiar with football, this section will give you a much better idea
  of who does what on the field.  However, if you're familiar with the sport,
  you can skip right on past this, of course.

  OFFENSE
  �������

  Quarterback (QB) - The quarterback is perhaps the single most important
  offensive player on the team.  He touches the football on nearly every
  play.  If it's a passing play, he passes it; if it's a running play, he
  hands the ball off to whoever is running it.


  Running Back (RB)/Tail Back (TB) - Don't be confused if you hear someone
  mention tail back or running back, because they're the same position.  In
  professional, you'll usually hear running back, and in college, you'll
  usually hear tail back, but it really doesn't matter.  (I usually refer
  to the position as running back)

  The running back is responsible for running the ball down the field, once
  he is handed the ball from the quarterback.  Depending on the play called,
  he may be expected to block defenders from tackling the quarterback, and
  he also runs short passing routes when called upon.


  Fullback (FB) - Fullbacks are typically larger than running backs - 20-30
  pounds heavier in fact.  They are mostly used for blocking, leading the
  way for a running back.  The fullback also has the speed to be used for
  rushing and receiving, like the Running back.


  Wide Receiver (WR) - The wide receiver is the primary passing target for
  the quarterback.  They're often tall and very fast, capable of out-jumping
  and out-running the defenders.


  Tight End (TE) - Often a blocker, the tight end is also used for receiving.
  He typically has a size advantage over defenders, and is sometimes
  taller than their wide receiver counterparts.  The passes they catch
  are often over the middle of the field, just beyond the first down mark.


  Center (C) - Centers give the ball to the quarterback and punters to start
  the play.  Often very large in size, centers are also responsible for
  keeping the defenders from getting at the quarterback.


  Guard (G) - Guards flank the center and are responsible for blocking
  against defenders, but they also have to try to open holes in the line to
  allow the running back or fullback through to run the ball.


  Offensive Tackle (OT) - Tackles flank the guard and are also responsible
  for blocking against defenders.  They're job is very much the same that
  of the guards.


  DEFENSE
  �������

  Defensive Tackle (DT) - They are in the middle of the defensive line, and
  they're trying to either tackle the running back or fullback who is
  running through the line, or they're trying to rush the quarterback.


  Defensive End (DE) - The ends flank the defensive tackles, and their
  jobs are very much the same.


  Middle Linebacker (MLB) - Middle linebackers are large and agile.  They
  typically tackle the runs up through the middle and any short passes up
  the middle.


  Outside Linebacker (OLB) - Often smaller and faster than their middle
  linebacker counterparts, they must protect from short passes to the outside,
  but also protect from the outside runs.


  Cornerback (CB) - Cornerbacks have to cover the wide receivers, so they
  are very quick and agile.


  Free Safety (FS) - These guys have great acceleration since they're free
  to do almost anything they want to do.  They are free to cover wide
  receivers or even go after (blitz) the quarterback.


  Strong Safety (SS) - Strong safeties are resposible for tackling wide
  receivers and tight ends.  They're quick and very strong because of this.


  SPECIAL TEAMS
  �������������

  Kicker (K) - Kickers are responsible for kick offs and field goals.  They
  are often the smallest of the players.


  Punter (P) - Punters are responsible for punting on fourth down.


================================================================================
                                    Defense                              (00004)
================================================================================

  There is often a great deal of emphasis put on offense, but I believe a
  defense is equally as important.  Offense may win games, but defense wins
  championships, or so the saying goes.

  For a defense to be successful, you don't necessarily have to stop the other
  team on each and every play, just stop them from scoring.  This is a much
  more realistic goal, afterall.  When it comes to offense versus defense, I
  actually prefer to play defense.  I know most are the other way around,
  enjoying racking up the yards on offense, but I enjoy shutting down my
  opponent's offense.

  Below, you'll find a brief description of each of the general defensive
  formations, which includes the advantages and disadvantages of using the
  particular formation.

  4-3
  ���
  The 4-3 defense is likely the most commonly used defense formations.  It
  involves four lineman, three linebackers, two cornerbacks, one free
  safety, and one strong safety.  This is a great overall formation, but 
  is best for defending against the run.  If you're forced to defend an 
  offense using three or four wide receivers, I'd recommend selecting a 
  different formation.


  3-4
  ���
  The 3-4 defense is much like that of the 4-3 formation, and also very
  popular.  It involves three lineman, four linebackers, two cornerbacks,
  one strong safety, and one free safety.  With the additional linebacker,
  you will be able to better defend the short pass and the outside runs, 
  compared to the 4-3.


  46
  ��
  The 46 defense is much like that of the 4-3 formation, but not very popular
  in today's game.  It involves four lineman, three linebackers, two 
  cornerbacks, one strong safety, and one free safety.  This defensive
  formation is good for run stopping, as one of those safeties will be close
  to the line of scrimmage, providing speed.  With that speed, you will also
  be able to blitz, providing pressure on the quarterback.  If the quarterback
  is able to find a wide receiver open deep down the field, you will find
  yourself in some trouble.


  Nickel
  ������
  The Nickel defense typically involves four lineman, two linebackers, and
  five defensive backs.  With the additional defensive backs, you'll be able
  to provide a better defense against a passing offensive situation.  This
  defense is susceptable to a run, so make sure the offense will be passing.


  Dime
  ����
  The Dime defense typically involves four lineman, one linebacker, and
  six defensive backs.  With the additional defensive backs, you'll be able
  to provide a better defense against a passing offensive situation.  This
  defense is susceptable to a run, so make sure the offense will be passing.



  Quarters
  ��������
  The Quarters defense typically involves three lineman, one linebacker, and
  seven defensive backs.  With the additional defensive backs, you'll be able
  to provide a better defense against a passing offensive situation.  This
  defense is susceptable to a run, so make sure the offense will be passing.



  Goal Line
  ���������
  The Goal Line defense involves several linemen and linebackers and a couple
  of defensive backs.  This formation should really only be used when your
  opponent's offense is in a short yardage situation and running the ball.
  Although you are given defensive backs, you may be in a world of hurt if
  your opponent decides to pass the ball.  There's always a chance they could
  do a play-action pass for short yardage, so be careful.  Make sure you have
  your audibles set so that you can quickly find a good pass defense if you
  notice something odd at the line.



================================================================================
                                    Offense                              (00005)
================================================================================

  The bulk of the points you will score will obviously be on offense.  A
  balanced offense is required to effectively move the ball down the field.

  The best advice I can give someone is to vary your offense.  Don't call
  the same play over and over; the defense will learn what you're doing and
  shut your play down.  The same play calls aren't the only thing you need to
  vary; you have to vary what type of play... run vs pass.  Mix it up often,
  and don't be afraid to use the occasional play-action pass.  This is a great
  way to confuse the defense, getting a linebacker or two to bite on the
  possible run, while the quarterback drops back for a pass.

  If you're not happy with the playbook your team is given by default, choose
  another.  Some team playbooks are very balanced, while others may favor
  either the pass or run a bit more.  You can also create your own playbook,
  which will offer you a lot of input into your own playbook.

     TIP: If you're running low on time, hold the L2 or R2 button after you
          call your play.  This will actually stop the clock until you
          release the buttons.  It will allow your players to get to the line
          of scrimmage without any time on the clock expiring.  It's
          kind of a cheat.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                Running The Ball                         (00006)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  When running the ball, you will require a hole in the line.  If you don't
  see one, try to get to the outside as quickly as possible, as it's only
  a matter of time until the defense ends up in the backfield, taking you down
  for a loss.  If you are able to find a hole, get right up in there and hit
  the sprint button, along with the appropriate juke button should you need
  to get around a defender.  If you're lucky enough to have a fullback blocking
  ahead of you, don't be afraid to follow him to one side or the other.  Some
  of my biggest runs are because of my fullback knocking defenders down on
  their butts, allowing me to sprint right on by, picking up several yards
  and the ever important first down.

  Going around defenders isn't your only option when running the ball, of
  course.  In Madden 2006, we were given the Truck Stick.  It was very much
  like the Hit Stick for the defensive side of the ball.  When the runner
  (running back, wide receiver, etc), you can use the Truck Stick to knock
  the defender down, shedding the tackle.  It doesn't always work, which is
  why I prefer to try and avoid the tackler with a well-timed spin move, juke,
  stiff-arm, or just have a blocker take him out for me.  One disadvantage
  of using the Truck Stick, also known as the Highlight Stick, is it increases
  the odds of you fumbling the ball.  If your running back is smaller and
  more ellusive than say a larger back, like Jerome Bettis, when you hit the
  Highlight Stick, your smaller, more ellusive back will try to evade the
  tackler by ducking the tackler and doing other cool moves.

  If you are trying to run the ball to one side of the field, but have noticed
  that the defense has stacked that side of the field, you have three options.
  You can change the direction of the play, you can audible an entirely new
  play, or you can send your tight end in motion so that he blocks on the
  other side of the field, allowing you to still run there.

  A common mistake rookies make when running the ball is instantly hitting
  the speed burst button.  Lay off of it until your blockers do their job.
  Going too fast too soon may result in you either running into your own
  lineman or you may even end up running right into the man your blocker
  was supposed to block, but you were in too much of a hurry to let him do
  his job.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                Passing The Ball                         (00007)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  After you call your play and are approaching the line of scrimmage, take a
  look at your defense.  What formation are they using?  Are they in 4-3 or
  are they in Nickel or Dime and expecting a pass.  With Nickel or Dime, their
  defense will have more defensive backs, which means you'll have a more 
  difficult time passing the ball.  You could consider changing the play or 
  perhaps using the playmaker option to have one of your wide receivers run
  a quick curl or something else short.

  When it comes to actually throwing the ball, make sure your quarterback's
  feet are planted.  If he is on the run, his passes will likely be inaccurate,
  resulting in either incomplete passes and even interceptions.  A bullet pass
  thrown on the run is also likely going to be incomplete.  Throwing on the run
  can be dangerous, so if you are in a situation where you have to throw while
  running, try to lob the ball a little.  The odds are a lob will allow the
  receiver to get where he needs to be to catch the ball and not result in an
  interception or incomplete pass.

  If you have a wide receiver or tight end that you can send in motion, give
  it a shot.  You may be able to interpret what sort of defense your opponent
  is currently running (aside from the obvious formation), and the motion man
  may end up causing a little confusion with the defense.


================================================================================
                                 Special Teams                           (00008)
================================================================================

  You're not going to be able to score a touchdown every time you have the
  ball.  On these occasions, you'll likely have to either punt the ball or
  kick a field goal, depending on where you are on the field.  If you're in
  field goal range on third down, but are on the far left or right of the
  field, you may wish to use that third down for a run or short pass to
  the middle of the field.  This will allow for an easier field goal kick.
  If you're to the extreme left or right on the field, you will have to
  adjust your kicker's aim.  Obviously with this situation, there's a chance
  that you could kick the ball too far to the right or left of the field goal
  posts.  For this reason, it's easier to kick from the center of the field,
  especially when the wind can become an issue during an angled kick.

  If you're in a punting situation, kick the ball fairly hard.  If the line
  of scrimmage is in your opponent's territory, you may want to try a shorter,
  angled punt.  Aim for the pylons near the end zone and try to get the ball
  out of bounds within the five yard line.  If you end up kicking it in the
  endzone, the opponent will get the ball at the 20-yard line, so try to
  make them start as far back as you can on offense.

  On punt and kick-off returns, there's really not much to talk about... much
  like the other subjects of special teams, lol.  Anyway, try to watch for
  where your blockers are and try to find a hole to run through.  Jukes and
  spins can help you elude tacklers and gain extra yards.

  Below you'll find complete profiles for the teams available to you in the
  game, which includes a full roster.  The figures are actually from the XBox
  360 version and are from VG Sports' website.  Several sites posted this
  information just before the game was released, such as IGN and GameSpot.

                               Arizona Cardinals                         (00010)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Stadium: Cardinals Stadium (2006-)
  2005 Record: 5-11
  Head Coach: Dennis Green
  Division: NFC West
  Overall Rating: 87
  Offense Rating: 88
  Defense Rating: 85

  The 2006 Cardinals have made some big changes recently.  They've got a brand
  new stadium, a great new backup quarterback in Matt Leinert and a new starting
  running back in Edgerrin James.  Arizona certainly has the potential for a
  big turnaround.  Despite having one of the league's top running backs, the
  success of their running game will depend on its mediocre offensive line.

  The 2006 Falcons have made two note-worthy acquisitions.  The additions of
  John Abraham from the New York Jets and Lawyer Milloy from the Buffalo Bills
  will provide the Falcons with a better defense.  The Falcons have one of the
  better running schemes in the league, and with the light-footed Michael Vick
  a constant threat at quarterback, the Falcons look to continue with a strong
  running game.  There are a lot of questions surrounding All-Pro tight end
  Alge Crumpler, who has had shoulder surgery recently, and his abilities have
  been questioned.  As long as he's healthy, Crumpler will be a big target for
  Michael Vick to find.

  The Ravens signed veteran quarterback Steve McNair in the offseason.  McNair
  should provide the Ravens the quality quarterback they've been looking for.
  Derrick Mason and Mark Clayton should rack up even more yards than they did
  last season at the wide receiver position.  Also, with Jamal Lewis at
  running back, the Ravens have a fairly solid offense.  Their defense, anchored
  by linebacker Ray Lewis, is still great.  If there is one obvious problem
  with the team, it's the offensive line.  McNair may have a good arm and be
  fast on his feet, but he'll likely get a lot of pressure from the defense.

                                 Buffalo Bills                           (00013)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Stadium: Ralph Wilson Stadium (1973-)
  2005 Record: 5-11
  Head Coach: Dick Jauron
  Division: AFC East
  Overall Rating: 84
  Offense Rating: 82
  Defense Rating: 87

  A lot of eyes will be on J.P. Losman to see if he will be the Bills' QB
  of the future.  Many have doubts, including me.  None of the Bills' QBs
  have very good ratings, fairly mediocre actually.  If the Bills cannot
  get a passing game going, a lot of pressure will be placed on Willis
  McGahee, their running back.  Despite his talent, McGahee will likely face a
  4-3 or 4-4 a lot if the Bills don't pose a threat in their passing game.

  The Panthers did very well last year.  Steve Smith served as a go-to receiver
  for Jake Delhomme and wowed crowds with long passes, racking up over 1500
  yards.  With the acquisition of wide receiver Keyshawn Johnson, the Panthers
  are looking to put on another aerial assault.

  Defense Rating: 89

  The Bears are a one-sided team.  Their defense is incredible, while their
  offense is deplorable.  They have several good players on offense, but
  none of them are superstars and don't especially stand out.  If you're going
  to have success with the Bears, it'll be with a mediocre offense and a
  stellar defense.

  The Bengals have one of the top offenses in the league.  The three top
  offensive threats include Carson Palmer, Rudi Johnson, and Chad Johnson, a
  trio which reminds me of Dallas' championship team from the 1990s with Troy
  Aikman, Emmitt Smith, and Michael Irvin at the same positions.

  You'll find some decent defensive players, but the Browns are lacking some
  power on offense.  Reuben Droughns is a tough running back, but the Browns
  don't have much of a passing game.  Charlie Frye saw limited action last
  year, but he's young and has potential.

  Without a doubt the biggest change on the team is at wide receiver.
  Keyshawn Johnson was released by Dallas, who later signed Terrell Owens.
  There really isn't much else as far as major changes are concerned.  The
  defense is average, but will improve as they get used to the 3-4.

  To combat a salary cap problem, the Broncos had to release their leading
  running back, Mike Anderson.  The Broncos should be just fine, as Tatum Bell
  and Ron Dayne both looked good last year.  Jake Plummer continues to improve
  at the quarterback position and should be able to put up some great numbers
  again.  The strength of their defense comes from their linebackers and
  defensive backs.

  The Lions have had a poor team for years, and there are no signs of great
  improvement.  The quarterback position has two average quarterbacks looking
  for the starting position, with neither of them likely to be a huge star.
  Kevin Jones should have a better year at running the ball, as the Lions have
  a better offensive line than they did a few years ago.  The defense is held
  together by Pro Bowl tackle Shaun Rogers.

  Everyone was curious about whether or not QB Brett Favre would return for
  another season, and when he announced he'd return, many were surprised with
  his decision.  Last year was his worst, posting terrible numbers.  Although
  the Packers don't have any stars at the running back position, they have
  three good backs.  Their offense lives and dies because of their offensive
  line, which has been very poor at providing Favre with some time to find open
  receivers.

  Everything is looking up for the Texans this year.  They have made a number
  of moves on both sides of the ball during the offseason, acquiring some
  talented players.  Eric Moulds (WR), Mario Williams (DE), and Mike Flanagan
  (C) all stand out in my eyes.

  The Colts did a phenomenal job last year, nearly going undefeated in the
  regular season.  Edgerrin James was a huge loss to the offense of the Colts,
  but they picked up Joseph Addai in the draft to help counter that loss.
  Peyton Manning is still one of the top QBs in the league and has great
  targets at wide receiver.  On defense, the Colts were one of the best last
  year.  If you're looking to add a top defender, I'd look at the secondary.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Stadium: Alltel Stadium (1995-)
  2005 Record: 12-4
  Head Coach: Jack Del Rio
  Division: AFC South
  Overall Rating: 87
  Offense Rating: 87
  Defense Rating: 88

  Byron Leftwich and Fred Taylor are both solid in their position, but the
  offense could use a big receiver.  Jimmy Smith's retirement was a big blow
  to their passing game.  On defense, the Jaguars are among the best.  They
  are solid at each position.

  Stadium: Arrowhead Stadium (1972-)
  2005 Record: 10-6
  Head Coach: Herm Edwards
  Division: AFC West
  Overall Rating: 89
  Offense Rating: 92
  Defense Rating: 86

  The Chiefs have a phenomenal backfield with Larry Johnson and Priest Holmes.
  Trent Green has two receivers to throw to Eddie Kennison (WR) and Tony
  Gonzalez (TE) to keep the defense guessing.  The Chiefs also have one of the
  best offensive lines in the league, making them a great team to choose.

  The Dolphins added a great quarterback to their roster.  Daunte Culpepper
  is the best Dolphins quarterback since Dan Marino, and should help the team
  improve quite a bit.  Fred Beasley is one of the league's top fullbacks,
  and should help block for running back, Ronnie Brown.  The team could really
  use some help in the secondary.

  Stadium: Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome (1982-)
  2005 Record: 9-7
  Head Coach: Brad Childress
  Division: NFC North
  Overall Rating: 86
  Offense Rating: 87
  Defense Rating: 87

  With Daunte Culpepper and Randy Moss gone from the Vikings, the organization
  stepped up and made some changes to the team to help bolster some of their
  positions.  Brad Johnson will be starting now at quarterback.  Running
  Back Chester Taylor and Fullback Tony Richardson should come together to form
  a solid rushing threat.  The receiving core, however, still needs some work.
  On defense, tackles Kevin Williams and Pat Williams lead an effective unit.
  At free safety, veteran Darren Sharper is phenomenal.

  Tom Brady is healthy this year and should perform much better than last year.
  Corey Dillon is backed up with Laurence Maroney at the running back position.
  Both are very solid players, and should give Tom Brady's arm a break.
  Despite losing Willie McGinest, the Patriots still have a solid linebacker
  core.

  Overall Rating: 86
  Offense Rating: 87
  Defense Rating: 84

  The Saints got an upgrade on their offense this year.  Acquiring Drew Brees
  and Reggie Bush should excite the Saints fans this year.  Although Bush won't
  start, he will provide solid backup for Deuce McAllister.  With Brees at
  the helm, Joe Horn and Donte Stallworth should see more passes than ever.
  As for their defense, the Saints are rebuilding after some losses.

  The Giants are looking to improve this year after they ran into some problems
  towards the end of last year.  The Giants are one of the more solid teams in
  the game; each area of the roster holds solid players.  Eli Manning has
  several people to pass the ball to, while Tiki Barber is looking to rumble
  down the field again this year.

  Chad Pennington, despite having good ratings in the game, lacks a great
  core of receivers.  The only big target for him is Laveranues Coles.
  Fortunately, they have a solid running back in Curtis Martin.  Shaun Ellis
  and Jonathan Vilma trying to hold together their defense.

  The Oakland Raiders acquired Aaron Brooks at quarterback in the offseason.
  The Raiders are hoping he can provide them with an offensive spark, but I
  honestly doubt he's the answer to their quarterback problem.  LaMont Jordan
  should provide the Raiders with a rushing attack as long as the offensive
  line can come together and actually block and open up holes this year.
  The Raiders really lost this year when it comes to their secondary.  If
  you plan on taking control of Oakland, I'd recommend trading for some help
  in this area.

  Stadium: Lincoln Financial Field (2003-)
  2005 Record: 6-10
  Head Coach: Andy Reid
  Division: NFC East
  Overall Rating: 89
  Offense Rating: 88
  Defense Rating: 90

  Without Terrell Owens in the receiver position anymore, the Eagles are now
  lacking a quality receiver.  The group they have are fairly average, with
  no real standouts.  Brian Westbrook should provide the Eagles with a solid
  running attack as long as the offensive line stays healthy.  The Eagles
  defense is packed with a lot of talent.

  The defending Super Bowl Champion Steelers suffered a shock in the offseason
  when star quarterback Ben Roethlisberger was involved in a motorcycle crash.
  Fortunately, everything seems to be fine with him, as he tries to take the
  Steelers back to the Super Bowl.  By the looks of it, you shouldn't have too
  much trouble leading Pittsburgh.  They're pretty solid on both sides of the
  ball.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Stadium: Qualcomm Stadium (1967-)
  2005 Record: 9-7
  Head Coach: Marty Schottenheimer
  Division: AFC West
  Overall Rating: 87
  Offense Rating: 88
  Defense Rating: 86

  With Drew Brees out, Philip Rivers is the new starting quarterback.  There's
  no telling how things will turn out for them in the passing game, but Rivers
  will certainly have two great targets to throw to in Antonio Gates and Keenan
  McCardell.  Also, running back LaDainian Tomlinson is looking for another
  great season.  The Chargers spent a lot of draft picks trying to insure this
  would happen, drafting a number of offensive lineman.  On defense, the
  Chargers have plenty of talent on the defensive line and in the linebackers
  core, but they don't have a sound secondary.  It looks like they'll have
  trouble defending the pass unless you can bring in some new talent.

  Wow, one of, if not the worst team in the NFL last year.  You can have some
  success with this team if you're able to bring in some new blood.  They went
  out and got Larry Allen from Dallas to bolster their offensive line.  The
  49ers aren't the potent team they used to be...

  Seattle was the highest scoring offense in the league last year.  Can they
  do it again?  It certainly looks like a possibility with talent like Matt
  Hasselbeck at quarterback, Shaun Alexander at running back, and a fairly
  solid group of receivers.  This is really one of the most solid teams in
  the league.  It's quite likely they'll be back in the Super Bowl this year.

  Don't let their real world record fool you.  They've got a solid group of
  people on offense.  With Marc Bulger returning, the Rams could have a solid
  year on offense.  They've got three good runningbacks and a pair of top
  receivers in Terry Holt and Isaac Bruce.  Their secondary could certainly
  use some work, however.  That would be the first place to upgrade.

  The Bucs are back with their phenomenal defense.  Jon Gruden may have a lot
  of confidence in Chris Simms as a starting quarterback, but I'd bring
  someone else in if I could.  Their offense isn't great, frankly, but it'll
  get the job done.

  The Titans are a very young team, and will not likely be a surprising team
  this year either.  Steve McNair is out and Billy Volek is in, with rookie
  Vince Young in as backup at quarterback.  Many Madden players will be
  switching this, of course, as Young is a huge threat on the run, like Michael
  Vick.  As long as the backfield can remain healthy, the Titans should have a
  more reliable running game.  On defense, Keith Bulluck is the leader, but
  he's pretty much alone in greatness.

  If the Redskins are to be more successful, Mark Brunell will have to step up
  and remain healthy this year.  Clinton Portis is as good as gold in the
  backfield.  The Redskins have several people to throw to, including Clinton
  Portis, who took in his fair share of receptions.  On the other side of
  the ball, the defense looks very solid.  They have several players with an
  overall rating of 90 or highter and should be able to prevent too many TDs.

================================================================================
                                 Franchise Mode                          (00042)
================================================================================

    Franchise mode allows you to be the coach and general manager for one
    of the NFL teams.  I've not played this enough for this year to offer
    any advice yet, so check back in this section later.

    When you begin your Franchise, you must first choose from a few options,
    such as the number of players and which team you want to use.

    One of these options is whether or not you want to use the Fantasy
    Draft option.  If you choose "yes", you will start with a blank roster,
    and you'll have to draft your roster from all of the talent in the NFL.
    In Madden NFL 07, the Fantasy Draft has been a big disappointment in
    the eyes of many gamers.  The first two rounds are nothing but QBs and
    HBs, selected on their overall rating only.  The CPU doesn't take into
    account the player's age and career potential.

    After you begin your franchise, you will be greeted with a simple menu,
    offering details on your team.  The first menu is for Training Camp.
    Remember those mini-camp drills in other areas of the game?  Well, you
    have access to them again in this mode.  Each drill will allow you to
    take one player and run him through the drill to improve his attributes.
    Once that player has been used in a drill, he's not eligible to be
    used in another drill.

    After you've done your drills, you can either proceed to the Pre-Season
    or you can do a little roster management.  You can sign free agents
    and trade players with other teams.

    Pre-Season
    ����������
    Pre-Season is very similar to the regular season portion of the game.
    The primary difference is the emphasis on getting your backups some
    playing time.  This is why your starters won't play the entire game.
    In the Pre-Season, you play four exhibition games.  A great Pre-
    Season may net you some attribute bonuses.

    Regular Season
    ��������������
    This is what the bulk of this mode is all about.  Play your sixteen
    games with hopes of making it to the playoffs and into the Super Bowl.
    Not only will you be able to trade players, sign free agents, and
    play the games, but you will be able to make adjustments to how much
    tickets, merchandise, parking, etc costs.  This has an impact on how much
    money your team will bring in for the year.  With more money, you may
    be able to get a better player or two and even upgrade your team's
    stadium, thus bringing in more fans and in turn more revenue.

    The owner's box has an advisors panel, which I recommend consulting
    every now and again.  If you're doing everything well, you shouldn't
    need to use this feature, but it can be handy if you're looking for a
    little advice when it comes to pricing, for instance.

    Most of this mode is very self-explanatory in my opinion.  I find that
    there's very little strategy needed that doesn't come naturally.  Things
    are pretty easy to find.  You can check your player's stats and check out
    your rosters.  You also have an Inbox for emails from coaches and players
    with updates.

    Off-Season
    ����������
    This is actually my favorite portion of the Franchise mode.  While I
    enjoy playing the actual games, I enjoy looking for up and coming talent
    from college and getting them on my team.

    Before you look for more talent, check out your staff.  There's a chance
    you may need to hire someone.  Coach contracts don't usually last very
    long (two years is my average), so it's a frequent thing to check every
    year.  Go into "Staffing" and see if someone needs to be hired.  There is
    a "Team Needs" portion on the screen.  A coach position lit up in red
    is one which needs to be filled.

    HC = Head Coach
    OC = Offensive Coordinator
    DC = Defensive Coordinator
    ST = Special Teams Coach

    Use the attributes boxes to help you determine the best coach for the
    position.  It's fairly self-explanatory.

    Now that the off-season is here, let's take a look at our stadium.
    From the main menu, go to "Stadium".  You have the opportunity to
    do everything from upgrading seating to renaming the stadium.  If you're
    happy with everything, let it alone and leave.  Otherwise, upgrade
    something if you can afford it.  You may have a lot of players that
    need re-signing, so keep that into account.

      Stadium Upgrades
      ����������������             Cost                Maintenance Costs
       EA Arcade                   $2 Million          $500K
       Cup Holders                 $2 Million          $50K
       Internet Cafe               $2.10 Million       $100K
       Gourmet Chefs for Lux Boxes $2.40 Million       $500K

       Massage Seats               $15 Million         $3 Million

    If there's nothing else you fee like tinkering with, go to the "Off-
    Season Schedule" option and let's begin working on next year's team.

    The Off-Season Schedule is as follows:
     01) Retired Players
     02) Roster Management
     03) Restricted Free Agents
     04) Re-Sign Players
     05) Free Agent Signing
     06) The Draft
     07) Roster Management
     08) Sign Draft Picks
     09) Free Agent Signing
     10) Re-Order Depth Charts
     11) Start New Season

    Up first is retirements.  Players usually retire because they're getting
    old and are looking to move on for some reason.  There are of course
    young players who get hit with career ending injuries, so there may be
    a surprise or two in the list of retirements.  However, most of those
    who retire will have been in the league for ten seasons or better.

    Once you're through viewing the retirements, hit the START button and
    the CPU will assign new roles to the players.  These roles are things
    like NFL Icon, 1st Round Pick, etc.  You've seen these roles before
    in the game.  This is when those get assigned.

    Next, you'll be given the opportunity to release some players from
    your roster.  If you want to release them, go ahead and hit the X button.
    Otherwise, hit the START button to advance past this part.

    Next, you have the opportunity to go after restricted free agents.
    Your team may have some that you want to keep, so try to resign them.
    Another team may have a player you're looking for, so make an offer
    to get him.  You may just end up picking up a great player.

    You can now re-sign players whose contracts have expired.  You've
    got the first crack at re-signing them, so re-sign those you want
    and the others are cut.  You only need to re-sign those whose contract
    years remaining says 0.  If you find a player whose contract is expiring
    a year from now, you can negotiate a price and perhaps get more years
    per dollar for him.  It's quite easy to become attached to a player
    who has played for your team for say twelve years, but sometimes you
    need to cut them or trade them.  After a while, they may not perform
    as well as they once did or they're looking for a contract bigger than
    what you're prepared to offer.  When you're done, hit the START button
    and the CPU will cut those players who weren't re-signed.

    Now, you can begin signing free agents.  These are players who no longer
    are under contract with other teams and are for the highest bidder, so to
    speak.  Be sure to frequently check your "Breakdown" page in the game.
    This will tell you how many players at each position you have and you
    need to have.  It's better to have an extra player at some positions in
    case of injuries.  Free agency is a great opportunity to pick up on some
    excellent talent for your next season.  After you make your offers,
    hit the START button and choose to advance a few days and see if you
    can pick up the players you targeted.  You will be outbid on occasion,
    so if it's a must-have player, offer him a nice contract before someone
    snags him first.

    Next up is the Draft.  In 07, you have three options.  You can play
    the draft class in a "College All-Star Game" to see how they all feel
    in an actual game.  You can get right to the Rookie Workouts and see
    what they can do.  Finally, you can get right to the actual draft and
    get your team its players.  For me, I go right to the Rookie Workouts.
    Instead of what I remember from 2005's game, you have to actually
    earn the workout information by using the player in one of the mini-game
    drills.  The better you do, the more information you will get about the
    player.  I'm not a big fan of this change; it seems like a ridiculous
    obstacle to throw into the game.  You can learn some information about
    your rookies this way, but I still prefer the way it was handled in 2005.
    Afterwards, go to the NFL Draft.  If you haven't traded away your picks,
    you may have a chance at getting a good rookie for your team.  Making your
    selections is pretty simple.  The on-screen information is helpful for
    figuring out how to navigate things.  It's all pretty self-explanatory.

    After you finish the draft, you'll get another chance to cut players.
    If there's no one to cut, hit the START button.

    We'll now have the opportunity to sign our draft picks and see how we
    fared.  It's not until you sign the players until you figure out their
    overall ratings.  You DO NOT have to sign every draft pick, just the
    ones you want.

    Afterwards, you have another opportunity at picking up some free agents.
    Any draft picks not signed will show up here.  I wouldn't expect to find
    any big surprises here.

    After the free agency signing is over, you can re-order your depth
    charts.  I rarely need to make changes, but sometimes things get out
    of whack in the off-season somehow.  Look over everything and if
    everything's in order, move on to the next season.  You'll be able
    to put your players through the training camp mini-game drills again.


================================================================================
                         SuperStar (Hall of Fame) Mode                   (00043)
================================================================================

    SuperStar Mode, also known as Hall of Fame, allows you to create a
    player and send him through the NFL in hopes of him earning a spot
    in the NFL's Hall of Fame.  Have you got what it takes to make it?

    I've had a chance to play around with this mode much more than with
    the Franchise Mode, but I've still not made a whole lot of progress.
    The mode isn't nearly as fun as I expected it would be.  I started
    as a Defensive End and got bored with him and created a Running Back.
    That's a bit more exciting, but it's still not all it's cracked up to
    be in my opinion.  The camera angles *may* be more realistic, but it
    really takes away from the fun of the experience.  I may end up creating
    a linebacker, which from what I've heard, is more fun to use.

    When you create your player, you get to name your player whatever you want,
    and then you need to choose your parents.  This can have a very big
    impact on what you will play as in the NFL.  On the screen, you're shown
    information about your parents.  You need to go into this screen with a
    certain player position in mind.  Once you have one in mind, try to find
    the correct parents to give you the best benefits.  If you want to be a
    Wide Receiver, for instance, your best bet would probably be to find a
    father who is a Hall of Fame Wide Receiver and a mother who is a
    Sprinter.  Press the O button to give you another combination of parents.
    Keep pressing it until you find the parents of your dreams.

       Tip: When creating your player, you will receive the option to
            choose how much muscle your player gets at each part of his
            body.  Don't over do it.  Look at the appearance bar at the
            bottom of your screen as you increase/decrease the muscles.
            More muscle isn't always best.

    Afterwards, you will find yourself in an apartment.  This is where you'll
    live.  There's not much to do, however.  You can check out your cellphone
    and your calendar (schedule), but that's it until you get drafted by a
    team.  You will receive messages on your cellphone, which works more like
    an email inbox than a regular phone.  You will know you have mail when a
    green light near the phone lights up.  Your calendar has scheduled events,
    such as movie shoots, game days, training days, etc marked.

    Go into your calendar and hire an agent.  You won't likely be able to get
    a good agent in the beginning.  I wound up with the worst.  Afterwards, go
    by what is listed on your calendar.  This acts as the best guide for the
    time being.  Do what it tells you to do.  You'll perform in an event or
    two, such as the 40 yard dash.  Which events you have access to depends
    on which position you are playing. Pre-draft workouts have permanent
    effects on your attributes, so it's criticial to do well with these.
    Regardless of which position you will be, you could certainly benefit from
    being able to run faster, so I recommend the 40 yard dash for at least
    one of the workouts.  In the dash, wait until the word "Go" pops up on
    the screen and start tapping that X button like crazy.  As the "power"
    meter fills, you will run faster.  Keep pressing the button until you
    cross the finish line.  Other than the 40 yard dash, you need to consider
    the other events available.  If the dash is the only one you're good at,
    then you can really improve your speed, but you should practice those
    other drills so that you can improve other attributes should you decide
    to play this mode again.

    After the draft, you'll have access to the city's map, mirror,
    computer, and rookie handbook.  The map will allow you to travel to
    a few locations, such as your agent's office, the barber, tattoo parlor,
    and the performance institute.  The barber and tattoo parlor are used for
    changing your appearance.  You can go to your agent's office to get
    press coverage and get traded, for instance.  You can't visit the
    performance institute until you have an agent which has access to it.
    Your mirror will allow you to change your appearance.  The computer will
    allow you to access your statistics, your team's roster, etc.

    Now that you've grown accustomed to your apartment, it's time to go
    train, practice, and obviously play some games.  If you're like me,
    you really only desire to play the actual games and sim the practices
    and training events, but that would be a mistake.  You'll probably
    have better practices if you play them yourself.  A good practice could
    increase key attributes for your Superstar.  A good practice, by the way,
    is to get ten points per play.  If you want an easy way of doing this,
    choose a deep passing play on offense and choosing a goal line play for
    the defense.  Your receivers should get off the line, leaving you to
    throw the ball deep for a TD, giving you a total of 48 points a play.
    If your player is on defense, however, you will obviously have to play
    a little differently.  A reader, going by the handle of scstan13
    suggests calling a Singleback PlayAction pass for the offense and
    a defense that drops most back into coverage, keeping the quarterback
    from rushing the throw.  Keep sprinting before the snap, and if you are
    at a far enough distance outside the OT, he'll either miss you or ignore
    you completely when the snap comes.  The QB will be a sitting duck after
    wasting time faking the handoff. It may help if he is facing away from
    you after he hands it off, so he can't see you coming to crush him.  Sacks
    are worth 15 points unless you make a diving tackle (not hit stick), in
    which case, they are worth 20 points.  Even if you don't sack the QB, 
    the pass will likely be incomplete, worth 10.
    
    You can see what sort of bonus you've gotten from the practice by going
    into your computer in your apartment, called "Your Web".  In the first 
    drop-menu, select the option for Practice Results.  The attribute bonuses
    you get in between games will give you a boost for the next game.  You
    will lose those bonuses after the game and will have to practice more
    for the next game.

    During a game, your Superstar will be awarded temporary influence points.
    You can use these points to improve your team.  When you first start out,
    you are given the role of "Rookie."  As a Rookie, you can only improve
    yourself.  You also can only improve two attributes: Stamina and
    Toughness.  As your career progresses, you can gain new roles.  These
    are very position-specific.  If you're a Quarterback, for instance, you
    can have a role or two that you couldn't get if you were a Middle
    Linebacker, and vice versa.  Roles other than Rookie allow you to affect
    other players on your team.  In fact, there are a few roles which will
    decrease the attributes of your opponents as well.

    Before you play a game, get accustomed to the controls.  Know what every
    button does as it relates to your player and his position.  If you are a
    wide receiver, tight end, running back, or fullback, for instance, once
    you get open in a passing route, hit the L1 button to call for the ball.
    If the QB hasn't already thrown the ball, he will likely pass the ball
    to you.

    When you check the "Home" page on "Your Web", you will learn more about
    your Superstar.  The description is written by your webmaster and contains
    an interface displaying your current level of Ego and Influence.  Your ego
    fluctuates because of your agent, how you answer questions in interviews,
    etc.  Influence changes because of your agent and how you perform in the
    games.

    As you perform better in the games and as your influence increases, other
    agents will become available to you to hire.  To see if you can hire a
    new one yet, go to "Agent Directory" in "Your Web".  If a new agent is
    available to you, his name will be in white text... instead of being
    greyed out.  One of the nice benefits to getting a new agent is gaining
    access to the Performance Institute.  Below is a list of the agents in
    the PS2 version of the game:

    Name              Influence     Ego        Performance Institute
    Marty Allen       Excellent     Negative   Yes
    Pablo Fuentes     Excellent     Positive   Yes
    Joe Martin        Good          Negative   Yes
    Jesse Spinks      Good          Positive   Yes
    Tom Dagart        Good          Neutral    Yes
    Ned Masters       Average       Negative   No
    Bob Allen         Average       Positive   No
    Jimmy Powers      Poor          Neutral    No

    The Performance Institute is merely a way to access the mini-games from
    other areas of the game.  When you came into the league, you had to go
    through Individual Workouts which gave you increases to your attributes.
    The same is true with the Performance Institute.  You have access to
    those mini-games and if you perform well, you can give yourself an
    attribute bonus.  Which mini-games you have access to depends on which
    position your Superstar is.  The attribute bonuses you get from the
    Performance Institute are temporary.  After the next game you play is
    over, the attributes you changed revert to what they were before you
    visited the Performance Institute.

    From time to time, you may receive offers from companies looking for
    you to star in an advertisement or movie for them.  These are great
    opportunities, so jump at the chance when you can.  To do well at them,
    you need to get your lines correct.  It helps if you have a great
    short-term memory and attention to detail.  They will show you your
    line and then give you options for what the line was.  Usually, the
    only differences come down to word contractions (I have vs I've) or
    the punctuation marks at the end of the lines.  Doing well may net
    you additional opportunities in product promotions and movies.

    After your first two seasons are up, you will have the opportunity
    to walk and become a free agent or your agent will negotiate a new
    contract with your team.  Since I was happy where I was, I stayed
    and got a new contract.  If you decide to be traded, try to look at
    the new team's depth chart.  Make sure you will be a starter and that
    you have a good support group.  If you're a running back, for instance,
    check the offensive line out.  If it's bad, ask your agent for another
    trade.

    As your career progresses, you will end up moving.  You start in an
    apartment and will eventually move to a loft.  After my third season,
    I moved to a mansion and became a millionaire.  You will likely even
    gain roles like Team Mentor, which is great for influence.

    To see if you will be able to make it to the Hall of Fame, monitor the
    "Hall of Fame Board", which is found on your computer (Your Web).  I
    ended up retiring with my RB after seven or eight seasons and made it
    into the Hall of Fame with about 12,000 yards rushing.

    _______________
    Important Note:
    ���������������
    After you complete the Superstar mode, your Superstar file may end up
    becoming corrupt.  It seemed to happen to me when I retired and made
    it to the Hall.  You'll likely end up getting an error message stating
    the memory card may have been ejected from the PlayStation, but it
    obviously didn't.  Why this corruption happens is beyond me.  It seems
    like a technical glitch on the part of the game's developers.  Turn off
    the system.  Open the disc tray and remove the disc and close it back
    up.  Use the PS2's browser to find the memory card and delete the
    Superstar file from your card.  There's no point in wasting all of that
    space with a corrupt file, afterall.  If you wish to do another Superstar
    career, go ahead and create a new one.

                       Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)                 (00044)
================================================================================

    This is the section I've dedicated to questions that I deem are asked
    quite a bit, and instead of receiving the same questions over and over,
    they will be asked and answered below.  Be sure to read this section
    prior to asking me a question.


    Q:  I lost my manual - can you send me yours?

    A:  No.  This kind of question is one I don't like to answer.  Far too
        many people are using pirated copies.  If you use a pirated version,
        obviously there's no printed manual to use.  Much of the information
        you may need from the manual can be found in this FAQ, so it's of
        little use, really.  Each year, EA's manuals get thinner and thinner.
        It'll only be another year or two before we only get a slip of paper
        inside thanking us for buying the game and providing no help at all.
        They're nearly there already.


    Q:  I bought Madden 06 last year, so should I buy Madden 07?

    A:  It's difficult for me to answer, given the fact that I didn't play 06.
        The previous Madden game I had was 2005, so it's a bit of a change for
        me to go to 07.  My advice would be to read about 07 and then rent the
        game from a rental service or maybe borrow it from a friend.


    Q:  I'm in the SuperStar mode and I would like to play when my character
        isn't in the game.  Is it possible?

    A:  Yes.  Pause the game and hit L1 or R1, and you will see the control
        switch from CPU to User.  You will then be able to control the offense
        and defense, although you still won't be able to call a play.


    Q:  What's your favorite team/player/etc?

    A:  In the game or in real life?  Either way, I've been a fan of the Dallas
        Cowboys for some time.  As for a favorite player, I really don't have
        one.


    Q:  Can you turn off the passing cone in online games?

    A:  No, I don't believe so.

                                Madden Challenge                         (00045)
================================================================================

 Introduced several years ago, the Madden Challenge gives you certain goals
 to try and accomplish.  They include things like rush for one hundred yards
 in a game with a single player.  If you meet the goal, you will be awarded
 a number of tokens which can be turned in for the purchase of Madden cards,
 which will give you a bonus in the game.  How many tokens you are awarded
 depends on the difficulty on achieving the goal.  Increasing the difficulty
 level will obviously make achieving the goal more difficult, but if you
 meet the goal's requirements, you will be awarded more tokens.

 Here is a simple chart, showing how the difficulty level can affect the
 number of tokens you're awarded.

 Difficulty Setting      Level 1   Level 2   Level 3   Level 4   Level 5
 Rookie                    2         3         4         5         6
 Pro                       4         6         8         10        12
 All-Pro                   6         9         12        15        18
 All-Madden                8         12        16        20        24

 There are 283 total Madden Cards this season. Player cards give that player
 a boost for a specified amount of time.  Playing a Coach card boosts your
 team's awareness for a specified amount of time.  Stadium Cards unlock 
 stadiums for exhibition (Play Now) mode.  Historic Team cards open those
 squads for exhibition, and Cheerleader/Pump Up Crowd Cards give your team
 a temporary boost.  I've included a list of those cards below.
 
 Since I haven't unlocked some cards, I'd appreciate it if you would email
 me the details for any cards that you've unlocked that I haven't.

 The cards come in three values: bronze, silver, and gold.  The higher the
 value, the longer the benefit will last in the game.  You can view the
 benefits of each card by hitting the O button while viewing the card.  The
 O button will flip the card over, revealing all of the details of the card,
 including the value of the card, should you wish to sell it.

     * = Due to a programming glitch by the developers, the LaDainian Tomlinson
         card is nearly impossible to get.  When you complete the Ground Attack
         drill on All-Madden and receive a Gold score, you get the Shaun
         Alexander card.  If you go to the Madden card list, Ladainian
         Tomlinson's card is locked and it shows that you need to get a Gold
         in the Ground Attack on All-Madden difficulty.  They obviously got
         the two cards mixed up somehow.  This screwup has been documented by
         not only myself but through several readers of this FAQ.

    Released the first version of the FAQ.  There's still quite a bit to add,
    so if you would like to contribute, email me.

  Version 0.2  -  Aug 29, 2006  - 252 KB

    I added a few more Madden Cards.

    I made a few more corrections in the guide.  I also added a couple of
    more Madden cards.  If you have some which I don't, email me.  I'm still
    missing some.  I also listed the glitch with the LaDainian Tomlinson and
    Shaun Alexander madden cards.  Also, I added more to the Superstar
    mode section.  I'm still looking for any other tips for the section.  If
    you've retired and made it to the Hall, let me know about your experience.
    Finally, I'll likely begin the Franchise mode soon, so if you've got some
    experience with that portion of the game, let me know about any tips you
    think should be shared with others.

    I added six more Madden cards to the list.  The list is nearing completion,
    but is still missing some.  If you have any of them, let me know!  I also
    added to the Superstar and the Franchise sections of the guide.
