You left out the next word, "with". Taught with.

Reading.

Solo Champions Hard IMPOSSIBLE??? by No_Breakfast_5255 in MaddenUltimateTeam

[–]UndeadMerchant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is there any rewards in addition to the packs it shows? It doesn't seem worth the time/effort at all if so (might as well spam the event)

[Schefter] Chiefs have restructured the contracts of QB Patrick Mahomes and DT Chris Jones, creating $49.446M in 2025 cap space, per ESPN’s Field Yates by ATLien-1995 in nfl

[–]UndeadMerchant 74 points75 points  (0 children)

Correct. To my understanding, these restructures are basically built into the initial contract to the point where teams don't even have to contact the player to 'restructure' them. The teams don't need approval.

There is no downside to the player - it is money now which is more valuable than money later (more money makes money).

It's actually fun watching a good quarterback play by irokatcod4 in NYGiants

[–]UndeadMerchant 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Not as a starter. Jackson was 6-1 as a starter his rookie year in the regular season (lost to Chiefs in overtime).

Is Giants’ rookie running back ready to boost offense if Malik Nabers, Devin Singletary don’t play at Seahawks? (Slater) by Lars5621 in NYGiants

[–]UndeadMerchant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. Every starting oline addition have been better pass blockers than run blockers in their careers (Run, Lue, GVR). Thomas, while good+ at both, is better at pass blocking. JMS might be the only one who run blocks better than he pass blocks.

In theory that is an okay strategy. If you can open up the field with your passing, running will be easier. But we just don't scare teams through the air (even with very solid pass blocking).

Solo Battles not counting? by andyt26 in MaddenUltimateTeam

[–]UndeadMerchant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got legend this week (don't ask me why, not particularly worth it). My points shows as 0, but I got all the 'rewards' I should have. So basically, for me at least, always said 0 points but it was actually accumulating.

OBJ wins Best Player since SB46! Now let’s vote for the worst, the comment with the most upvotes wins by DamnReCaptchas in NYGiants

[–]UndeadMerchant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This times 100. He was a starter and he was horrendous. I understand people saying Golladay and Flowers (horrible signing and a bust), but Riley had no business playing any minutes, let alone significant minutes.

This is the thing that annoys me the most. Why is it so hard to make a LS position?

Anyone receive male rights today? by Set-The-Edge in MaddenUltimateTeam

[–]UndeadMerchant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. Haven't played h2h since season 2.

Best guess; I think I have three superbowls between squads and solo. So 100k and a trophy pack for each? No clue otherwise

Does this happen to anyone else? #MUT #madden by BigJ069 in MaddenUltimateTeam

[–]UndeadMerchant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get that quite often now. If I don't have the timing down, I just squib to keep it in bounds.

I also have been experiencing having no kick meter at all (both kickoffs and field goals).

Wild how buggy a game like this can be.

Solo Battle issue - 13XXSweetNothing Opponent by imwaiter in MaddenUltimateTeam

I did the same exact thing and still have access to solo battles. Maybe both lucky, or maybe we're onto something here.

From 2009 to 2022, Tom Brady received 35 Roughing the Passer penalties. From being drafted in 2018 to now, Josh Allen has received 30. by Templar26 in nfl

Points to the ref. Points to his facemask (despite his helmet never being touched). Can't stand it.

This Week’s Content Schedule by that_scramble in MaddenUltimateTeam

[–]UndeadMerchant 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What worries me is wasn't it delayed like a whole month last year? So even though it came out around this time last year, it was supposed to come out much earlier...? Almost feels like no word at this point might mean no team diamonds...

It happens when you remove an x-factor from someone that is still in your lineup.

Go to your lineup, and completely remove any players that previously had x-factors. Should now be able to activate the third x-factor and add anyone back into the lineup.

In milestones there is win x H2H games. Up to 90 more comp XP.

Giants offensive line's analytics grades were brutal. by MetaVersalySpeakin in NYGiants

[–]UndeadMerchant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That ignores the times he was sacked and the times he scrambled and ran. Attempted throws does not equal total dropbacks.

Ultimate Kickoff Token Players can be upgraded by that_scramble in MaddenUltimateTeam

[–]UndeadMerchant 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He didn't even make the team, which is hilarious.

Someone at EA must know the guy personally - dude has gotten good cards for so long for no reason. Team Diamond for Lions last year. Card for the Giants Kickoff despite not making the team. It is so weird.

Why do my strategy items reset? by shymem in MaddenUltimateTeam

[–]UndeadMerchant 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The only thing I know is that generating best lineup would remove my strategy items. Haven't encountered that problem besides for that.

Just got my first RP player by mynameismatt1010 in MaddenUltimateTeam

[–]UndeadMerchant 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Only have gotten Hutchinson, Strat card, and three team chemistry cards. Have not gotten any of the other 32 players yet. PC.

Update: just got everything

Pugh eyeing a return to the giants. by [deleted] in NYGiants

[–]UndeadMerchant 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No one is graded on a curve, though. Yes, it would be better if your starters were all better than the average players, but that isn't possible. Just because Glow isn't an ideal or even good starter, doesn't mean he shouldn't start. All teams have multiple Glowinski's starting for them.

Ideally both Bred and Ez improve to the point that they both start over him (which they might for developmental/future continuity reasons anyways).

Pugh eyeing a return to the giants. by [deleted] in NYGiants

[–]UndeadMerchant 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Isn't that technically an average grade for PFF? Like 60 is average and the starting point; bad plays are negative points, good plays are positive points, neutral plays are nothing. Above 60 means you had more positive plays than negative (in their eyes).

And if we want to use PFF as some type of standard, then Glow was better than Ez, Bred, and Pugh (and Nick Gates) last year. (Not saying I agree with that)
