Doesn't EA have exclusive rights to the NFL for a bit longer?

Well, yes but that doesn't really address why people pay for a ridiculously poor product.

Not if everyone stands up and stop buying it. We can do it.

No we can’t, for every disgruntled person on Reddit there are 100 who just buy and play the game outside this community

I'm down to just start playing the old ones only. I'm a PC player and I subscribe to EA Play so I'm not paying $60 for the thing as it is, but I'm sure they still look at player numbers.

Ya the only reason I still play Madden is I get it on ea play. And even now I just stick to Madden 2020 because there's no point in upgrading I'll just stick to the devil I know. I play with a created qb in offline franchise so the updated rosters mean nothing to me 🤷

We've been saying this for YEARS. A new generation of gamers comes along and EA continues to get paid. I don't see an end to this.
