Aqib Talib CB - 93 Elite

Player: Aqib Talib CB - 93 Elite
How Acquired: Bought on AH
GAME STATS:
Game 1 - 1 tackles, 1 fumble recovery (100 yard fumble recovery), 1 TD
Game 2 - 1 interception, 1 TD (in for one play the whole game) (opposing player quit too)
Strengths - He's a nice hitter, and he is really good at catching picks on the sideline.
Weaknesses - He's not the fastest corner, but that doesn't really matter because his jumping makes up for it.
My Opinion - I actually bought this card because I was going to get the 92 Brandon Browner because his 83 is amazing, but he was too much so I bought this. It was worth it. When he was my starter it was pic on the sideline every game. Now he's not my starter because he's third string and in the defense formation I use right now he's not in it, so I only use him when I'm either out of that formation temporarily or my formation isn't working so I have to switch back to my original formation. About the stats, he saved my game. I was playing against this guy who was using 85 QB Walter Payton, and Clay Matthews decked him so he fumbled. Out of nowhere Aqib Talib picks the ball up (we're on the one) goes out then back to the end zone, goes around a guy and I sprint with him all the way to the end zone. And then the other game I put him in for one play and he got a pick six. Yeah so is he worth it? Yes. I might upgrade to his 96.

Walter Thurmond CB - 93 Elite

Player: Walter Thurmond CB - Elite
How Acquired: Bought on AH
GAME STATS:
Game 1 - 4 tackles, 1 interception (almost a pick 6), and 2 pass deletions
Game 2 - 2 tackles, 1 interception (opposing player quit)
Game 3 - 1 tackle and 1 pass deflect
Game 4 - 3 tackles and 3 pass deflects (All-Madden CPU game)
Game 5 - 4 tackles 1 sack, 1 forced fumble
Strengths - He's really quite fast. Also he has pretty decent coverage.
Weaknesses - His injury is really low, same with hit power and tackling.
My Opinion - This is a really good card. I find him getting a pick every game (until of course I started recording his stats..). Anyway, what he lacks in hit power and tackling, he makes up for in his speed, acceleration and agility. I recommended this card to a friend of mine, and at first he thought Walter would be trash, but instead Walter was (as said earlier) getting a pick almost every game. In all honesty, his hit power is actually really good, as you can tell, he has caused forced fumbles. The only issue with this is card is his extremely  low injury. Other than that, he is a great steal for 5k.
Overall Grade - A -

Night Train Lane CB - 95 Legendary






PlayerNight Train Lane CB - Legendary 
How Acquired: Traded with a friend.
GAME STATS:
Game 1 - 4 tackles, 2 interceptions
Game 2 - 2 tackles, 1 interception (opposing player quit)
Game 3 - 4 tackles and 1 pass deflect
Game 4 - 4 tackles and 2 forced fumbles (All-Madden CPU game)
Game 5 - 5 tackles 1 interception 1 fumble recovery.
Strengths - All general stats (the ones that don't apply to just one position.), hit power and man and zone coverage
Weaknesses - his tackling is kinda low... 
My Opinion - Super card that I didn't want at first, but I tried him out, and let me tell you, this card is pretty darn good. He makes almost every catch, and can return it far because of his receiving skills. Not to mention his hit power is unbelievable and (as shown above) can cause fumbles pretty easily. His CPU is pretty good on it's own too, and I'm not to surprised when he comes out of nowhere to deck the opponents WR before he can hold on to the ball, or just get the pick. This is great card and I highly recommend.

Patrick Willis MLB - 94 Elite

PlayerPatrick Willis MLB - Elite 94
How Acquired: Bought on the AH
GAME STATS:
Game 1 - 7 tackles, 1 interception, 1 pass deflect, and 1 TD
Game 2 - 4 tackles (opponent quit early)
Game 3 - 7 tackles
Game 4 -  5 tackles, 1 sack, 1 fumble recovery (played All-Madden CPU)
Game 5 - 3 tackles 1 sack, 1 interception, 1 pass deflect, 1 tackle for a loss.
Strengths - Speed (91), Hit Power (93), Tackle (94), Jumping, Awareness
Weaknesses - Man coverage isn't too good, but he's great at zone coverage; Other than that he's good.
My Opinion - I love this card, and will be upgrading to the 97 All-Madden soon. This card is great for the cost (20k when I go it.) Honestly he runs like a running back when he gets a pick and as you can tell by his stats, he does run for pick sixes. He's a beastly player who makes those pocket passers regret running after he decks them and gets the fumble and picks it up for a touchdown. Not to mention, he is really agile. Overall I love this guy
Overall Grade - A- (because he has better cards)

Dennis Pitta TE - 99 Elite Golden Ticket

Dennis Pitta TE - 99 Elite Golden Ticket


PlayerDennis Pitta 99 Elite Golden Ticket TE
How Acquired: Bought on the Auction House
GAME STATS:
Game 1 - 11 receptions for 275 yards and 3 TDS (usually the first game I try to use the player as much as possible.)
Game 2 - 7 receptions for 173 yards and 2 TDS (incomplete game, lost connection at end of 1st half)
Game 3 - 7 receptions for 70 yards and 1 TD (opposing player quit in 1st quarter)
Game 4 - 4 receptions for 60 yards and 2 TDs (opposing player quit in 2nd quarter)
Game 5 - 4 receptions for 45 yards and 1 TD (Dennis left in 1st quarter with broken jaw)
Strengths - Speed (92), Acceleration (gives +2), Catching (97), Trucking (very nice actually), ability to make plays (yes!), Height (he can jump up and make the catch
Weaknesses - Injury I guess, Run Block and Pass Stats (although it's not to shabby), elusiveness (he's a tight end though)
My Opinion - Overall, I'm in love with Dennis. His last card was an 81 so it's well worth the upgrade. He loves to fake out and run past his defenders. And with his height I know for sure he can catch badly placed balls or beat out the corner for the ball. Now maybe it was a fluke, but he got injured with a broken jaw. Oh well. He also is very good at making spectacular catches. Great card, worth ever coin.
Overall Grade - A+
