I mean we are almost getting to the point where you actually don’t need to run multiple 20/20, 40/40 Theme teams as cards get better statistically…
atm i run eagles/chiefs/washington 20/20/20 and its great. have 7 filler spots available, but i think probably around combine/draft/easter I may drop to 2x 20/20 or 1x 20/20 and prioritise AP stacks rather than building a team from 3 NFL franchises (probably drop chiefs)
what do you think?
Eagles tt till Madden 26
Eagles theme team has a decided advantage with Jalen Hurts and 40/40 delivering +3 SPD. If we start getting items with multiple team chemistry buckets around Free Agency, you may even be able to get +5 SPD on critical positions like run-stop linebackers or defensive tackles.
But if you have to choose between speed and abilities on defense, you go with abilities at most positions.
I’m pretty close to ditching TT’s already and I’ve only been running one for like two weeks. 😂
If combine is good I will likely ditch the TT and just get cards that I like. I’ve already got a lot of key players that don’t fit my TT anyways.
If just for fun just pick your home team. Other than meta theme teams, the purpose of having a TT is more to keep outdated players remain relevant in game.
But also this year is 40/40 +2 spd. So yeah go with Eagles. Im 40/40 packers + 20/20 eagles. A team competitive enough
The motivators are too strong to ditch them teams. The speed boost isn't all that important but the motivators are.
never.
First week of the game
Just sold off my whole team including Ravens 40 TT, im left with a 94 ovr bnd team until theres a good market crash.
never, I’ve always ran a Pats TT and always will
N e v e r .
Since I first loaded the game. Never been a TT guy
I have run a 20/20 the last few months, but I just choose whatever team I have the most skill players for. With the S1 cards, captains, and this season cards having all 32 chems, you can easily make a 20/20 just with backups and the strat card. Right now it’s DAL due to having both Deions and Adderly. I’ll prolly swap to SF to bump Moss and keep the Deions in that 20/20 as well.
at some point every card will have 99 or 98 speed so it wont even matter
Can probably get away with just running the team motivators now to get the 98 speed guys to 99.
I agree with OP. We're on to abilities season. 98 vs 99 speed doesn't matter as much as who gets superior abilities and discounts to abilities.
Someone posted about Hurts and I run a 40 TT Eagles as well, but I just can't justify 2 million to marginally improve my team. +1 speed at this point in the game is much more diluted versus earlier in the year.
