Dancing
into the endzone: Press L or R before running into the endzone and
your player may do a dance. Note: He must be wide open.
Another way to dance into the
endzone with two different dances is to hold Z + L or R.
Hint:
Unlimited creation points: Create a player, then go to "Edit Player" at the roster
screen. Press Up or Down to choose the player you want to
edit. Press Right to get to the speed category. Press A and
choose attributes to adjust them up to 99 points.
Hint:
Created player announced: Give a created player a pro's last name to hear his name
announced.
Hint:
Thanksgiving commentary: Set the system date to the third Thursday in November.
Hint:
Christmas commentary: Set the system date to December 25 to hear Pat Summerall will say
''Season's Greetings''.
Hint:
New Year's commentary: Set the system date to January 1 to hear James Brown (JB) say
"Happy New Year".
Hint:
Easy punt blocking: Choose the play Punt Return Right, Middle, or Left. Before
everyone lines up on defense, take your LE and bring him to the right of the
MLB. After you bring the LE over, press the C-stickRight so
your line moves over. As soon as the offense hikes the ball, use your turbo
and head straight for the Punter. Once you get close enough, jump (Y)
and you will either block the punt or hit him hard. If you happen to miss
the ball, you will usually end up taking a penalty. Refer to the following
diagram (O is defense and X is punting).

Hint:
Easy 2-point conversion: After you score a touchdown, select the "Ask Madden"
button. He will almost always suggest kicking a field goal. Instead, go up
one set of plays, and pick the play "RB Direct Snap". No matter
what defense you are playing against, you will always get the 2-point
conversion. Note: If you cannot get in immediately, press B to dive
near the goal line.
Hint:
Easy scoring: Turn penalties off. On the coin toss, choose kick. Then, select
"Onside Kick" for a play . Pull Back + Right (if
your kicker is left footed, pull Back + Left) and kick with
full power then recover the onside kick. Choose your quarterback then scroll
down and select "Hail Mary" as a play.
Hint:
Easy sacks: In easy mode, go on the other side of the line of scrimmage and
stand in front of the quarterback. Remain there in front of him until he
hikes the ball, then tackle him. Make sure you do not touch anybody while
getting in front of him.
On defense, pick the defensive
formation "4-3," then pick the play "Whip Man." After
the offense chooses their play, shift your four linemen to the left (C-stick
Left) and shift your three linebackers to the right (R) before
the snap. Chances are the ROLB (right outside line backer) will take the
quarterback down. The DT(defensive tackle) might also sack the quarterback
if the ROLB is held in the line. Note: To get better results, either choose
the ECKO team or pump up your favorite team's defense.
Select the 3-4 defense play and
select the play Wipman. Then, control the DT on the left. Move him to the
right to block the center. This will work about 80% of the time.
Hint:
Easy recovery: Use the following trick to always recover the ball when kicking.
Go to a play where most of your players are on the left. When kicking, put
the arrow to the bottom left and kick at full power. Your players will have
a very good chance to keep the ball.
Hint:
Easy passes: When you are the QB, you can throw the ball two different ways:
straight (hold the button of the receiver you want to throw it to) and up
high (press and release the button for that receiver). When you throw it up
high, the QB will throw the ball over the safety to your receiver. He will
catch the ball most of the time. Throwing it straight is the most common
way. He just throws it to the receiver and it will not go over the safety.
It is best to use the straight pass if the WR is wide open.
Hint:
Easy tokens: For easy tokens, go to the two minute drill screen. Choose two to
four accounts, and the Admirals for defense. Choose your team and make sure
you choose a profile to save to, then start playing. Keep throwing to WR2
and you should get many touchdowns. It is possible to get a score over
33,000 with this trick.
Have the Dragons on defense and
the Titans as offense. You can score well over 55,000 points by selecting HB
Off Tackle as a play. It takes about eleven seconds to run and you receive
5,150 points per touchdown and 375 points for running the same play as a two
point conversion. If you can successfully score 11 touchdowns, you will have
a score over 55000.
Edit the speed of every player
on the Raven's defense to 15. Edit all of the halfbacks', fullbacks', tight
ends', and wide receivers' ratings down to 0. Edit you offensive lineman's
pass block rating to 99. Edit your quarterback in the following manner: 0
Passing Power, Accuracy; 99 Speed, Accel, Carrying, Awareness, Stamina, and
Agility. Save your roster as "Cheat", load it before doing the
following trick. Start a Two Minute Drill. Choose All-Madden, and then the
Ravens' defense. Choose whatever team you modified offensively, and make
them your offense. Next, you will need a passing play. Choose Single Back
Formation, and then Hot Route your second wide receiver, looking left to
right. Also Hot Route your tight end. For the Hot Routes, make them do a
buttonhook (Left on the D-pad). Now instead of passing the
ball, run a "Quarterback Sweep" by sending the quarterback to the
right side of the field. Run towards the endzone, using speed bursts as
needed. Make sure you get to the endzone. If you do not, call timeout if the
clock keeps ticking. If a penalty is called, do not waste the time running
down the field. Just head out of bounds, and do it over. You should be able
to score about ten touchdowns. Your score will be very odd, and you will get
millions of tokens. Go the Madden Cards menu to see your tokens -- they may
not appear on the Two Minute Drill menu.
Create a profile with M.
Martz's playbook. Run the two-minute drill under rookie with Galaxy as the
defense. Use the Rams. Run single back 5 wide, Hail Mary. Faulk or Hakim
will be open every time. You can score 100 points and get about 220 tokens.
It takes nine seconds to score.
Select "Options" at
the main menu and select "Roster". Go all the way over to
"Edit Player" and select your favorite team. Increase their stats
all the way. Set your worst team's stats down as far as it can go. Then,
back out and save the roster. Select "Options", then
"Settings". Put the game on "All Madden". Go to either
exhibition or two minute drill mode. Start playing and do well. If you
selected exhibition mode, run the ball all the way back to the 1 yard line.
Then, do a Hail Mary, catch it, and run for a touchdown. You get 36 tokens
every time you pass a 90 yarder. Note: You need Madden Challenge on and
should have a profile.
Go to exhibition mode and play
as the Ecko team against the Dragons. Turn penalties off and do an onside
kick if you have to kick. Repeatedly do running plays and you should be able
to score over 100 points in the game. Note: Make sure the Madden Challenge
is on.
Hint:
Avoid tackles: Stop running for a moment. You can sometimes easily avoid being
tackled. Sometimes you will need to juke, spin, or stiff arm to get past
defenders.
Hint:
Good protection: To get good protection on kick returns, choose "Onside
Kick" as your play. When you run back the ball, you will usually get
past the 20.
Hint:
Unlimited money in franchise mode: First, select season mode. Next, choose a team, but do not select
"Start" yet. Go to "Salary Cap" and change it to
"No". Play all the games of your season. When a prmpt appears
asking you to convert season to franchise, select "OK". Choose
your team to play with again and resume to the off-season schedule. When you
want to sign a player, you will see "No Cap" at the top. You may
now sign anyone of your choice..
Hint:
Kiss a cheerleader: After your first five seasons in franchise mode, at the end of
the SuperBowl there will be a cheerleader waiting for you. You have to be a
running back, corner back, wide receiver or a linebacker for this trick to
work.
Hint:
Cracked helmet: Play an AFC vs. NFC Pro Bowl game at Aloha Stadium in season
mode. During the game, get a player's helmet popped off (try getting hit in
the middle of a throw). After that same play, view an instant replay and
zoom in on the helmet that popped off to see that it is cracked.
Hint:
Get the ball at the start: Set the weather to "Heavy Rain" before the game. If the
CPU wins the coin toss, it will choose to kick most of the time.
When facing the CPU at the coin
toss, rapidly press L and R. The CPU will usually choose to
kick if it wins the coin toss.
Hint:
Stall a two-minute offense: Use the play Dime: Double Wide when you need to stall a
two-minute offense. You will have a better chance of running the clock while
the opponent is trying to score with a two-minute offense.
Hint:
Offense always gets the ball: When kicking off (at least in an indoor stadium), aim all the way
up and all the way to the right. With penalties off, the returner will call
for a fair catch. One of your cover players will either strip the returner
or catch the kick, giving you the ball on the 35. For example, play as the
Buccaneers. When playing at Detroit, Grammattica will kick it and Dwight
Smith will make the play downfield.
