Muthead League Season 11 is in the books and what a season it was! We had the strongest field in Muthead League history, featuring 4 of the 5 belt winners from this past MCS season. The Warrior Bowl was a wild tournament, with 6 weeks of regular season play coming down to one playoff night. In the end, while his MCS season didn't end like he had hoped, it was Wesley taking down Mr. Football 88 in the final and winning the Muthead League Season 11 Warrior Bowl.

Once again, a big thank you to the Army National Guard for …

In our final test, Spc. Hutton must take all he has learned to the gridiron against his toughest test yet: a Madden broadcaster. Can the student become the teacher? Is Nick truly washed at the game? Find out in this episode of Game Plans, presented by the Army National Guard: The Next Greatest Generation is Now

Week 6 is in the books and, before we get to the recap, a huge thank you once again to the Army National Guard for sponsoring Season 11 of Muthead League. The Warrior Bowl field is set, let's go through the division winners:

North- It was a 3 way tie atop the North division, with Astro taking home the crown over Dez and Kmac at 6-6 with a +32 PD.

South- Mr. Football ran away with this division late, only losing 3 games on the year and taking the division by 1 game

The Wildcard team from the American conference …

In episode 5 of our Game Plans series, Spc. Hutton learns about the importance of adjustments and how they can change the game. One simple adjustment could make the difference between giving up a back breaking touchdown, or forcing a game changing turnover.

The season is wrapping up this week, so let's take a look at where we stand with just 2 games to play. The North division is Astro's at the moment, sitting at 6-4. But all 3 other competitors have a shot, with Kmac a game back and Civil and Dez 2 back. Astro controls his own destiny, but one stumble and it could spell disaster. The South division is almost wrapped up, as Mr. Football follows a strong MCS season with a 2 game lead going into the final week. Just 1 win in his last two and the division …

In episode 4 of our Game Plans series, Spc. Hutton flips sides and works on the defensive side of the ball. Will he buy into the old moniker of defense wins championships? Can anyone find defense in this game?

3 weeks down, 3 weeks to go in Muthead League season 11 presented by the Army National Guard. In the North divison, Astro and Kmac sit at the top both at 3-3, with Astro ahead on PD.

Mr. Football, Gabagol, and Lambo are leading, but 2 games back is the Madden Bowl Champ Henry, waiting to make a move.

In episode 3 of our Game Plans series, Spc. Hutton gets on the practice field working out of the Eagles playbook and trying out some RPOs. We take a look at reads vs peeks and try to make Spc. Hutton an RPO demon. Will he read the defense like a champ, or does he need to go back to the library?

Alright, question for those of you chillin here on Muthead. I was looking through the database of old images from years of MUT still on my hard drive and, obviously, a lot has changed in the MUT landscape. Programs have come back, some have been retired, and some have just been retooled. So I was curious: for those of you who have been playing Madden for multiple years, what is one thing from MUT in the past you would like to see back in the game? Whether it is a program of the past you want to see, or a …

Neither is safe, however, as Noah and Big Gucci are both sitting in second place in their respective divisions with 4 wins a piece.

The Army National Guard believes the Next Greatest Generation is now. Back in August the Muthead team took a crack at predicting what some of the NFL’s next greatest generation would look like in Madden 23. Well the ratings are out and lets see how our predictions of Kyle Hamilton look. The team over at EA thought Hamilton wasn't quite fast enough for the 92 SPD we gave him, instead giving him 88 SPD and 86 ACC. The big miss was ZCV as he showed flashes of brilliance in college, as we predicted an 85 ZCV rating but EA decided …

Noah has taken firm control in the Long Layers Division, with Wesley (Fade), SpamminButtons (Taper), and Kiv (Brush Back) also leading their divisions. We still have some Week 2 games being played today, with a monstrous 3 game slate for these players in the upcoming week. No LCQ or MCS this week, so they will be 100% …

Happy New Year Muthead family! Hope you guys had a great holiday and New Year break. Apologies for the lack of write ups on the front page, unfortunately while out of town for the holidays I ended up with COVID at my in-laws sans computer for 10 days. Then, to top things off, I had an emergency appendectomy on Friday to kick off 2022. Luckily, everything went well and we are back to business feeling much better.

Also, before we get into it, a big shoutout to Agent K for all he did for Muthead and the Madden community. So …

Muthead League Season 9 is officially underway as Week 1 is in the books. A big thank you, as always, to our sponsor Supercuts for supporting competitive Madden. Week 1 featured all of the competitors playing 3 games total, which ended up having a major impact in the standings. First of all, there are no undefeated players after one week of play, showcasing the strength of the divisions in MHL Season 9.

The Madden 20 Bowl Champion XSET Joke is the only player without a win, with losses to Noah, Kiv, and TreyThomas, two of which are leading their divisions. …

I, myself, am driving to Las Vegas to got to the Raiders and WFT game tomorrow. But, before I can hit the road to Sin City, let us talk about the Legends for this week. On the offensive side of the ball, we needed some competition for the Jared Cook/Darren Waller/George Kittle trifecta...and we got it with former Texas Longhorn Jermichael Finley.

Anyways, this week's Team of the Week program includes an LTD Jamal Adams at 92 SPD, 93 ACC, 93 ZCV and 96 POW. Jets and Seahawks theme teams are happy to see Adams on the squad for sure.

TOTW for week 9 is a doozy, starting off with LTD Ben Roethlisberger. Big Ben is a Field General QB with 93 THP, 95 Short/Mid Accuracy, 90 DAC, and 69 SPD (nice). The Offensive Hero of the Week is former Miami Hurrican Willis McGahee at HB. He is a Power Back with 91 SPD, 92 ACC, 93 TRK, and 88 COD. The Defensive …

LTD release day, along with a pretty big patch fixing the speed burst glitch and delay fades getting nerfed. These items will be in packs for 48 hours (Saturday at 10am) and will have a 250k quicksell value. On offense, we are getting some help for the offensive line. It is none other than former University of Arkansas Pine Bluff Golden Lion Terron Armstead. Armstead is a Pass Protector LT with 89 STR, 95 PBK, and 91 RBK on the Saints theme team. Defensively, we get former Notre Dame Fighting Irish Harrison Smith into Madden 22. Smith is a Run …

Wildcard Wednesday is here once again with the Veterans program getting more players in Madden 22.

The players this week are "Old King" Cole Beasley, Calais "Soup's On" Campbell, Matt Prater "The Greater", Duron "Not Mark" Harmon, and Darren "Oops I Tripped And" Fells. Veteran Player Packs are in the story for 7,400 training and …

Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend and a happy Tuesday to everyone. I took a couple days off and went and saw some family...and watched the Browns embarass themselves once again. Pretty run of the mill weekend if you ask me. Week 8 provided us with plenty of surprises (winning QBs Mike White, Cooper Rush, and Trevor Siemian oh my) as we near the halfway point of the season. This weeks POTW is Patriots FS Adrian Phillips who had 2 INTS against the LA Chargers. Phillips has 90 SPD, 93 ACC, 89 SCV, and 93 PRC. The LTD this week …

The final 8 is set for the MCS Ultimate Thanksgiving tournament, with the final four spots being filled from each consoles loser's bracket. We saw some great games in this final weekend, and we will have a breakdown of all the matchups in the coming days/weeks. For now, let's take a look at the 4 players who earned at least $15k from this past weekend:

• Henry- 8/8. That's all you have to say for the Braidwood, IL native. Henry has made every single live event he has been eligible for, including winning his first belt at the Madden 21 Bowl: …

Ok, so again here are some things I think we learned from Week 7 of the NFL Slate

1. Both the Broncos and Panthers were benefitted by soft early schedules and will struggle to hit .500
2. Matt Stafford and Cooper Kupp may be the best duo in football right now
3. Pete Carroll has been carried by Russ, not the other way around
4. The Bengals are a legit contender

It is time for TOTW in Madden 22 and (no surprise) that Cooper Kupp is the POTW. I thought we might get Jamarr Chase or Mike Evans POTW, but Kupp gets a needed …

Weekend one of Double Elimination action is in the books, with plenty of surprises from the Madden 22 action.

Big weekend in competitive Madden, and we are getting some BIG players in Madden 22. I mean literally big, like lineman and linebackers. On the offensive side of the ball, we get the anchor of so many good Pittsburgh Steeler offensive lines in Maurkice Pouncey. If you are looking for an anchor of your line, Pouncey is an Agile archetype Center, with 92 STR, 91 PBK, and 92 RBK. Certainly he will make some teams, especially if you are building a Steelers TT.

On the defensive side of the ball, we got a deep cut at linebacker. I had to …

It's another Wildcard Wednesday and it is Veterans this week coming to Madden 22. Fun part about veterans is that they can switch chemistries to any team they have played for. In my personal opinion, this might be the best group of Vets we have seen, as many of these items are quite playable. This week we have Jason "The People's" McCourty, Ryan "Fitzception" Fitzpatrick, Robert "Harley" Quinn, Cordarrelle "Thanks For The 40 Points Last Week" Patterson, and Jared "Gordon Ramsey" Cook.

The MUT content continues flying out of the factory, this time with the new Gridiron Guardians program. This program you may be familiar with, as it was formerly known as the MUT Heroes program, as exemplified by the players being stylized as super heroes.

As a reminder, these items are only available in packs for the next 48 hours and have a quicksell value of 250k coins.

Another fantastic week of NFL football. Here's what I think we learned:

1. Kickers are people too and they absolutely ROCK
2. The Rams and Matt Stafford are for real
3. The rookie QBs this year are...struggling early
4. Urban Meyer thought he was playing Purdue every week when he took the NFL job

Anyways, it's time for Team of the Week items. No surprise that the Player of the Week is Bills QB Josh Allen. He absolutely went off on the "vaunted" WFT defense for 358 passing yards and 5 total touchdowns. Allen may be the best QB in the game, rocking 91 …

A legendary weekend deserves some more Legends into the game of Madden 22. We have 2 new Legends here on a Saturday morning, getting slightly overshadowed by the Team Diamonds released on Friday. On the offensive side of the ball, we get another TE trying to take lineup spots away from Waller and Kittle. It is none other than former Syracuse Orangeman and longtime Baltimore Colt John Mackey. Mackey has 87 SPD, 91 CTH/CIT, and 91 SPC. Is he good enough to take a spot on your team? Let me know in the comments.

It is finally that time folks! Team Diamonds are in the game of Madden 22!! For those who are new to the game, these items provide 3x chemistries for their respective teams. Dan Marino is the TD Master, and he is the first QB in the game with Hot Route Master! This will certainly make building those Theme Teams a lot easier than it was yesterday! Here is the full list of Team Diamonds:

Team Diamonds

• MASTER: QB Dan Marino (x3 Dolphins, x1 all other teams)
• Bears: DT Tommie Harris (Chargers)
• Bengals: WR T.J. Houshmandzadeh (Seahawks, Ravens, Raiders)
• Bills: HB …

We got Team Diamonds coming tomorrow,, we have a new title update today, and it seems like we forgot we have LTDs in the game this morning! These items are available in packs for 48 hours and, honestly, I'm not sure how many people will be clamboring to rip packs. On offense, we have Dallas Cowboy HOSS La'el Collins at RT. Collins has 92 RBK and 90 PBK, so for those running Cowboys TT he is an improvement over the RTs out there (and adds a chem for dem Boys).

On offense, we get Harold Landry III at ROLB added …

ITS GETTIN WIIIIIILD ON WILDCARD WEDNESDAY! Okay maybe it isn't, like, SUPER wild....but we got 2 QBS from this set of Flashbacks. Remember, our last set of Flashbacks gave us the best QB in the game in Daniel Jones, so I'm interested to see your guys' opions on this set of Flashbacks. Todays items include A.J "If I Were A" Bouye, C.J. "Mr Flashback" Mosley, Micah Hyde and Go Seek, Ryan Tannehill the Mannehill, and Wham Bam Thank You Cam Newton. There are new challenges in the game (for a PUP of any one of todays players) and those count …

Another wild week in the National Football League, and we saw some amazing individual performances in those games. Let us take a look at the players coming into Madden 22 as Week 2's Team of the Week players. The Player of the Week item is Tampa Bay Buccaneers safety Mike Edwards (2 pick sixes in their win over Atlanta) rocking 91 SPD, 91 ACC, and 90 ZCV. The LTD is Aaron Jones, who EA must have been nostradamus with because Jones went OFF last night with 4 touchdowns. Jones has 90 SPD, 91 ACC, 91 AGI, and 92 BTK.

The …

Two new legends into Madden 22 today and as we start to see theme teams filling out, these guys seem like great additions to fill out that roster. On the offensive side of the ball, we get former Pitt Panther and Jet/Patriot Curtis Martin at halfback. Martin comes into the game with 91 SPD, 93 ACC, and 92 BTK. I love him to replace some of those running backs we've seen like LT and even some Reggie Bush if you are still running a Jets theme team.

On defense, we get a Dallas Cowboy and our second Roy Williams...but this …

Lots of things going on in the MUT world right now, with house rules returning tomorrow and Team Diamonds finally being released next week!! Today, it's of course LTD Thursday and we got 2 new players available for the next 48 hours in packs.

On the offensive side of the ball we get former Minnesota Viking and star of the Buffalo Bills Stefon Diggs. The former Terp comes into the game with 89 SPD, 92 DRR, and 92 SPC. He is 90s in all three route running categories, but that 89 speed is going to hurt him a little. Bills …

What a weekend of NFL football that was! That Monday night game was a wild finish, we saw games coming down to the wire, and we saw Daniel Jones fumbling...so nothing has really changed! It is the first installment of the Team of the Week program, and we start things off with some pass rushing fiends. Myles Garrett gets the LTD TOTW item with 92 PMV andp 90 FMV at 92 OVR, coming off a 4 tackle, 1 sack, 8 QB pressure game vs the Chiefs. Chandler Jones, though, went absolutely bananas this weekend. He gets a 92 OVR Player …

WE GOT A FULL FOOTBALL WEEKEND LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!!!! Which games are you guys most excited for? I obviously can't wait for Ohio State and Oregon today and Browns/Chiefs tomorrow! BUT, before we get there we have new Legends into the game of Madden 22.

First off, a staple in the game and someone who seems like he is always one of the first WRs on early MUT squads. It is none other than the pride of Mississippi Valley State University Jerry Rice. Rice comes into the game with 91 SPD, 90 SPC, and 90 CTH which seems like some …

The MCS is over (what a final it was) and it is back to a somewhat normal schedule. That means it is time for more LTD's to be released into Madden 22. For those who don't know, LTD's are limited edition items that are only available for 48 hours in packs.

Offensively we get the former Georgia Bulldog and soon to be leading rusher in the NFL for the Super Bowl Champion Cleveland Browns Nick Chubb!! Chubb is a Power Rusher HB rocking 89 SPD/ACC, 91 TRK, and 92 BTK. I love how they made this item with a combination …

Listen, I know the MCS style of play isn't everyone's cup of tea (and I know most of you were just watching to get rewards) but I hope you found at least one moment of fun last night watching the MCS Ultimate Kickoff. I know I had a blast calling it and it was cool seeing how many of you posted in the forums that you watched so thank you.

Legendary human beings are in the game of Madden 22 today and its all about that bass, bout that bass.........no treble.

We got some big hosses as our Legends released into Madden 22. We start things off on the offensive side of the ball with a 3x Pro Bowler who knew how to protect the QB. It is none other than the former Texas Longhorn Leonard Davis. Davis is a Power Right Guard rocking 90 STR, 91 PBK, and 91 RBK. Not a ton of top end guards in the game right now so certainly worth a grab!

Defensively, we …

It gets very hot in the summer here in Arizona, as we topped 100 degrees again yesterday.

Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, Jack Nicklaus...the list goes on and on of people who know how important it is to participate in The Masters.

Happy weekend MUTHead family! We got some Ultimate Legends released into the game today that I'm excited for because I'm a biased human being who enjoys seeing his team represented. You may be asking yourself, "Nick, first of all, we know that. Second of all, there are no Cleveland Browns today you dingus!" Fear not my friends because I have many personal biases that EA can take my money for...because our first legend into the game today is not only a former Tennessee Titan, but he is a Heisman Trophy winner from THE Ohio State University, Mr. Edward Nathan George …

Apologies that this article is a tad late, I got my COVID vaccine the other day (yay) and it kicked my Community Manager butt (boo).

Its time for some more LTD's in the game of John Madden Football, and we have ourselves some strong items live right now. On offense, how about a defending Super Bowl Champion? That's right, it's former Penn State Nittany Lion Chris Godwin coming to the game. Standing at 6'1", Godwin comes into the game with 96 SPD (so that'll be a 99 with chems), 99 CTH, and 97 CIT. He has great hands and can make some specatactular plays. Defensively, the Washington Football Team gets some more defensive love (as if they needed it), with former Purdue Boilermaker Ryan Kerrigan. …

Listen, we all need to look ahead to the future. At the end of the day, however, it is important to look back and appreciate what we had. There's your deep thought for the day, appreciate the past my friends.

Speaking of looking to the past, it's Wildcard Wednesday and we got some Flashbacks!!!

Another legendary weekend is on the horizon, as it is time once again for EA to release more Ultimate Legends!!

So my choices of music references for the Sugar Rush program were either I Want Candy or that SugarCrash TikTok song. I'm a 31 year old man who decided those were the two references I could come up with...coooooool. The Sugar Rush program is live in Ultimate Team and there is A LOT of information to parse through. I captured as much info as I could from the GMM stream and tried to put it in bullet point form. Let me know in the comments if it is too much or too little information, and what needs to be added …

Happy Thursday to everyone in the MUTHead community! It is LTD time and we have two beasts coming to the game of John Madden Football. Defensively, we have current New York Jet and former Florida Gator Brian Poole. I've seen a lot of people on Twitter talking about how good this 98 OVR cornerback looks, ratings wise. He comes in with 96 SPD, 97 ACC, 97 MCV, and 95 ZCV, which certainly put him in the upper echelon of all defensive packs in Ultimate Team. Offensively, we need to protect the quarterback from those angry pass rushers. How about we …

To misquote the words of the immortal Bruce Springsteen, we're born to be wiiiiiiiildcaaaaard (thank you I'll be here all week).

Veterans Player packs contain 1x random 89+ OVR Veterans Player item and each of today's new …

Thirsty Thursday is here and I know all you MUT fans are thirsty for some LTDs! We got 2 studs coming to the game, starting with former Giant, Seahawk, and Lion (and sought after free agent) Golden Tate. Tate comes in stock with 95 SPD and 97 SRR, so he can run those quick off the line routes. While maybe not the flashiest WR, there are certainly some theme teams that would love to add Golden Great. On defense, how about former Clemson Tiger and current Cincinnati Bengal DJ Reader. A beast on the line, Reader comes in with 95 …

TOP OF THE MORNIN TO YA! Happy Saint Patty's Day to everyone out there and a happy WILDCARD WEDNESDAY to you as well! Today, we got some Campus Heroes power ups released and a Drew Brees Tribute item. I am a big fan of the Campus Heroes program as a college football fan. These may not be the most exciting releases in the world (since these items already have their team chemand you can only get these players to a 96) but I still love reminicing about these guys playing on Saturdays. Power ups were added for the following players: …

Free Agency is one of the most exciting times in the NFL, and now that excitement live in Madden Ultimate Team! This program features some of the biggest stars who hit the free agent market this season (although some weren't on the market too long). The set features 18 players (6 heroes) and 2 additional masters, bringing the total to 20 items you can collect. The defensive master is none other than former Wisconsin Badger and Houston Texan turned Arizona Cardinal JJ Watt (seriously, who saw Watt going to the desert??). The offensive master is former Mississippi State Bulldog and …

Saturday night might be alright for fighting (sorry to all of you who are too young for that reference) but Saturday morning is all about the LEGENDS! The UL Program dropped some fire today, starting off with one of the most feared CB's, longtime New York Jet and former Pitt Panther Darrelle Revis. His 98 OVR legend comes stock with 95 spd, 98 MCV, and 98 PRS so with your chems he'll have 99s a plenty. The offense needed some love today, so former Miami Hurricane and TE Legend Jeremy Shockey makes his appearance in Madden NFL 21. While not …
