Love the idea of speeding up the pacing and doing more 2-3 game episodes. Totally down for that!! Even if it means 1 ep. a week or so. I’d love to be able to get through the seasons and see the story unfold and meet new players/teams

Thank you for the feedback. And I want to emphasize that there would still be 1 game episodes. And it wouldn't always be one episode per week. But it's nice to have options for different kinds of episodes depending on where we are in the real life calendar as well as where each series currently sits.

@@MrHurriicane I think another good idea is to go very fast through the first season of a new series. like (4) 4 game episodes. I think I can speak for most of us viewers that we watch these to watch you build the team. the first season for me at least, is always very slow. I think it could be a good way to jumpstart new series'

@@MrHurriicane can been watching for years. I’d love to see some 2 and 3 game episodes. I love your live game commentary although I’m sure it’s time consuming. I think maybe a game format more like what you do with the preseason is worth considering. For a faster pace. Less 1st and 2nd down runs we don’t need to see all of those haha, more just highlight big plays. I want to emphasize I love your current format but it can be slow. Lastly I know viewership probably drops with the release of a new game, however I’d love to see you not necessarily jump right to the next madden game if the series doesn’t feel as though it’s at a stopping point.

Instead of the obligatory Juan Beard hate, I’m going to just say this: Cane we appreciate the thoughtful approach you have to making content. I’ve been watching your channel for 11 years now, which doesn’t feel real. I trust you implicitly to make the right choice. If that’s two games a video done similarly to how it was done today I would love it!

Barry Skelton and Priestly need to be in future plans, they look legit

Cane does this every offseason though. He drafts a late round flyer, gets all excited about the guy in preseason. then once the regular season starts never uses him.

I dont mind this format but sometimes with this format your commentary can spoil how the game is going to end Instead of commentary in the moment

In general, I like the idea of "speeding up" the more mundane parts of the season as long as the storytelling is still there. It is a little alarming that we're on Episode 70 already and it feels like it's been a winding and fun road, but we haven't really gotten anywhere yet. Today worked because the episode was about the Saints coming off of Tim Cannon's press conference fiasco, falling on their face again against the Panthers, but then Priestley and Barry Skelton stepping up to avenge the Falcons loss. The episode was way more focused on those storylines than simply highlighting a blowout loss to the Panthers and a surprising upset of the Falcons I agree that you need to keep playing the games to know and present the storylines and highlighting certain players/plays (like that Kyle PItts injury on the kickoff). Otherwise, it will feel too close to the Raiders slow-sim where there are storylines and there are big plays, but there isn't that level of familiarity cause you and we miss a lot of actual player performances (in exchange for the CPU v CPU experience and speed) I trust that you'll find something that works! I love the daily alternating MrHurricane and LP uploads, but if you'd like to take more time on each episode, I think we'd all be cool with that too. I know I'd be happy to trade off some upload frequency for more creative intros, focus on storytelling, and little bits like the Stockton Meter for example

I completely agree. My fear whenever a content creator starts to talk about getting more content in one video is always that we, the audience, are going to have to lose out on quality. No shade given but I’ve tried to watch other madden KZreadrs and the way they chop up games takes away from the storylines. Like sure they get to the off-season faster, but I never actually care about the team because I don’t get to spend any time with it. However I trust cane to make the right decision without sacrificing the storytelling element that he has, in my opinion, perfected for madden KZread franchises.

I think faster pacing is a great idea. I don't think this would take away from watching the construction of a great team, either. We'll still get to see the highs and lows along the way, and longer form content would be perfect to move quickly towards the end of a lost season or allow us more time with fun drafted players. Looking forward to see what's next!

The lack of success on 3rd and 4th down was really just because the plays took too long. Having to wait for the deep in from a TE isnt ideal against an elite pass rush. I think Westbrook got hit on evwry single 4th down play. I cant be mad at him for failing in that situation.

His play calling has always been lacking

Tommy the best CB with bricks for hands

Not even Trayvon Randolph can save this team

That first game was the single most excruciating ordeal I've ever endured in any Cane series ever, so he definitely owed me. And to my complete shock, he actually delivered! 😳😳😳

I had to learn the hard way also. When your coach trash talk and you dont win your team is going to suffer big time. I almost had to simulate the rest of the season because my team played horrible the rest of the season.

Barry Skelton is the fastest white guy I’ve ever seen

White lighting! Dude was 10yards away from everyone running after him 😂

“Barry gets a lane! Barry!!!!!!” Is one of canes best recent calls

Tommy Tomlinson is the best double amputee football player of all time

Loving the 3 episode concept. That Falcons game was what you guys needed and shoutout to the players stepping up for the injured players spot. Keep it up

Jacoby Pearman reads the comments. He knows how much we love Barry Skelton and Antuan Priestley, and he decided to give them a spotlight game to show they deserve a chance. How noble of him to do so.

2 games an episode is a great idea. I always thought the first 1-2 seasons where it's gonna be a bad team, to do 3-4 games a vid to get to the offseason and rebuilding.

These thumbnails have become next level

I think faster pacing is a wonderful idea! Selfishly, I would love to see episodes every few days but I understand if it’s a week. In Cane, I trust.

Yknow cane isn’t playing well…but damn in the thumbnail department he’s killing it 😂😂

I love the idea of quicker pacing for the series. One thing that I tend to prefer in other Madden content creators is their pacing. Having a season take 5-7 episodes and then having the offseason be its' own episode would be optimal. Cutting down the videos gives better opportunities for highlights/lowlights to shine, which tends to be more engaging. Especially since we live in a world of bang-bang short form content

Love the short passing game, just gotta get the ball out sooner.

15:20 should've gone full clown and insult them again for the hell of it, got nothing to lose lol.

I think your pacing has been pretty good this Madden in terms of how often you've gotten videos out. You've really been grinding and plugging away on both this channel and the LP channel. I wonder if you could potentially do what you do with your Raiders series and put a couple of games in an episode and then save the single-game episodes for big matchups. I did like this video's pacing though and wouldn't mind that more in the future.

What a episode. Got me heated when you started talking in past tense at the start and sounded like you were giving up. And then out of nowhere, what a win. Priestly, Skelton, Sharpe. WOW

I think the faster pace is a really good idea. Over the years, I’ve loved the franchise series but it did always feel like I already knew going in, I’d get 5 seasons at most. Speeding it up is a nice evolution, especially if you keep important games in the old style.

With how good a story teller you are, it makes a ton of sense to speed things up *generally*. Your point about only getting to play a few seasons with Randolph is exactly why, I for one would love to see more opportunities for channel legends like him to pop up by getting deeper into franchises each year.

Would it be considered to change player's throwing motions? Realistically qbs coming out of college work on improving form even from guys like joe burrow, trey lance, etc. Might be something you could do in year 2 or year 3 for Westbrook Edit: I love your series, whatever the pace you may put out. If for most people, the faster pace works for them, it is still great content

Why was I so nervous during that Falcons game lol

Damn barry can fly. Dude was 10yards from the nearest guy 😂

Love the 2 games in the episode also play Skelton a lot more love ya cane! I think being able to get to 7-9 years would be awesome compared to 5-6 years which is normally what happens

Spoiler protection.

Cane in that pick 6 had me thinking he Jontay Porter’d this game for the plot

The hybrid style format works as sometimes that is a story in itself. This video seemed more about can the Saints pull out of the morale slump and what would happen in the games that was affected by the moral slump while we didn't have to wait three videos to see the outcome. Your storytelling also help with the one game videos. So next video a self-made part of your video is can someone step up like they did while Pearman was out and get more playing time. You have good skills so keep experimenting on what works for you and we will follow you through it.

Record is 9-3 if you would actually get the ball out in time 😂

Dat slow release by Westbrook though...

Lot of complainers in the past few videos, but this has been the most invested I’ve ever been in one of your franchises! It’s fun to see something different, a challenge you’ve never faced before. As someone who’s been around since the madden 13 raiders days, this is some refreshing content! As always, love the videos, Cane!

Having more games an episode is whats best. The series is best when we can go deeper. I know its not apples to apples but the denver series was dope because it went through soany years. I know we had a full extra year bc the madden game sucked but its the journey

Word of advice, for some reason the Madden lineups makes the number 2 corner guard the number 1 receiver. All you have to do is switch cb1 to cb2 and you'll have the matchup you want. And pay attention to who the slot wr is. If it's somebody like Tyreek then move your best cb to slot cb. It helps a lot.

As a Saints fan in real life, I know this episode/game is unrealistic. No shot the Falcons ever have that many fans at a game. Also, yes, super down for speeding up the pace of the series! Even if you jump around a bit more in each game than you already do. I'd love to get another 2-3 seasons out of the whole series than usual just to see more of the progression of the drafted players, see how the team construction changes after a Super Bowl win or once drafted players start to enter their second contracts. The deeper you're able to go while still showing some depth with the games and commentaries, the happier I think we all are.

I think the idea of speeding up series at the start is a great idea. Personally I know that I’m not heavily invested in year one typically, even in my own franchises. I like watching the team the most when it’s got players added to it. Hope to see that in effect!

Speeding up the pace is a great idea. I think for the regular season doing two game videos is perfect

I totally agree with everything said at the end! Ik it’s a bit time consuming to make a video in this format but I would like to a see a franchise series go out to 10 years of storytelling. Just like the broncos. This series and the raiders have been great cuz it’s been a true grind. Over the years in my opinion it’s gotten so repetitive winning super bowls after 3-5 years of the rebuild. Obviously that’s always the goal, but there’s always satisfaction winning the biggest game after all the struggle.

While I'll certainly miss the more frequent episodes with one dedicated game, in the end we'll be getting more content, so I'm happy!

More games in episodes is something that I'm absolutely down for! I appreciated the storylines you've begun to add (the suspension was a fun touch), so I'd love to see more two game videos in the future!

this is why this man rocks cuz he listens to feedback your the man cane 🙌🙌 format is solid

That Falcons game has given me hope that maybe my team's draft won't suck as usual after all. Thanks, Cane! 😊🤘

Great stuff Cane. Love it. 👍

I've always liked the one game videos but I also like your style of combining games in videos and as you said it would help in making progress faster in the series. fwiw I would be cool with experimenting with format and picking up pace in this series to make progress and maybe find a good formula for the next series in the process. thanks as always for the top quality videos Cane!

Tbh the faster paced episodes like today are my favourites. Progress is so key to these series. I’d personally be in favour of saving one game episodes just for playoffs and critical games late in the year.

that thumbnail is INSANE thats some great work

Cane! Great vids man and I'm here for whatever you decide cause your storytelling and leaving things up to player ratings is something that isn't done on YT. I like the two game video idea cause it allows you to go through multiple games but still able to highlight the games more and not cut too much out

Love the 2 games or even 3 in a game. Love the series so far been following you for awhile I think since Vikings franchise

Love the two game video format Cane, I say keep it going. Another video I'm respectfully requesting you throw those curl routes before the receiver turns around if they have a one on one 😅

An idea is going game by game between week one and week 3, set up the scouting there. Then between weeks 3 and 8 multiple games per video there to speed that process up. Set your national scout up and then do 2, 2 game videos between week 8 and 11. After that you can go one by one depending on the season outlook, and see the scouting focus players revealed. This is just an idea based on what you are discussing at the end. I hope this gives you some inspiration, I love the videos.

even though its formulaic, the nfl knows what its doing making 10-15 min highlights of their games. It's a good length for getting the jist of how a game went. Thats why I think the 15-20 min highlights work well, can help tell a bit more story with that extra time.

I agree with more games in episodes. What’s most interesting is seeing drafted players and signings developing. The longer we spend with their careers the better.

i’ve only been saying play barry more since week 3 but i’m just glad to see him prove me right

I think your idea for videos is a good one! It'll help with pace and getting more from the series. Like you pointed out it sucks that in some of your past series, the team gets good right around the release of the next Madden. I think games with big implications and postseason should be stand alone episodes. Otherwise, the rest should be up to how you feel. You're great at making the series immersive and making/following storylines. I have full confidence that you'll but out the best, no matter the format!

cane clearly posessed by dan campbell today

Right now, we’re 6-6 as the 7th seed. I think 1-2 games per episode would be a great idea. However, if we’re competing for a high draft pick, 3-4 would be ideal. Same if we’re a lock for the 1 seed

Todays format was great, keep it funky fresh, big fan.

I love the two-game videos! I would love if we could get 10 years into this franchise.

The drop at 11:27 sums up the season pretty much lol

Also I really like your idea about having more games in a single episode

Are we sure Barry Skelton isn’t bionic Barry?! Also something you did today that I really enjoyed was that you suspended a player, maybe if you do things that happen irl that they don’t institute in the game that could make it more appealing, maybe just me but I appreciated that. You still got a lot done and showed a lot in 2 games. I always love 1 game 1 episode but with the wat you do multi game episodes is done very well, especially if you hit a lul in the season like where you were prior to the huge win.

Cool that the pure athleticism these characters are supposed to have can be displyed like it was in that second game.

Great episode and great idea Cane.

Cane, honestly I hope you go with a team that drafts a rookie QB like the Commanders/Bears/Pats, whoever in Madden 25. And I hope it’s the commanders

I love the idea Cane. Ive always wanted series to be longer but I akmowledge that its time comsuming for you to edit videos and get them out. With that said, if it's possible for you to get through more games i think it would enhance the experience a ton. Also yeah, no sims on these series for sure. I love that you always stay true to your content but are willing to try new things. Any ideas for CFB25 by the way? :)

Cane, imagine these falcons but with Mahomes at qb. Thats what happened in my saints franchise lol

with the new format this means the possibility of getting a 2hr cane episode is now in the air hehe great win insane how we control our own destiny this team is good and can compete should be interesting how things go in terms of the storytelling the format and the season wow important year for the saints franchise n the channel

I think your vids are great and honestly I love the realism. I think big games deserve their own episodes and otherwise you can 2-3 an episodes

Tbh the reason I enjoy the supersim franchises more is because of the pacing and that it goes further into the future

I think speeding up is good too. Really could do mostly multi game episodes except in critical seasons, like year 1 to learn the team, once you have a legit playoff contender but seasons like this one the story line is really how are the young guys progressing and what are the missing pieces. Like a 17 game season is like 8-10 episodes, once its clear this is a legit team then slow down on some bigger games or ones that are entertaining

So the best part about the Rebuild Series' is that there would be 2, 3, or 4 games per episode and we could better see progression, or even regression, in the team.

I'm super on board with a pacing change, particularly in the first season - I'm not terribly interested in what you can do with the real-life roster, I want to see it rebuilt. I tend to look forward to the sim franchises more, simply because we get to see drafted players develop quicker, etc. I think getting through the first regular season in 4 episodes (assuming it's not the type of team that could sneak into the playoffs in year one) with a hybrid pace in later years would be great.

I like the idea of some more Episodes with 2 or 3 games in it because it would actually get a series to progress a little bit faster and we would get to see more of the careers of the new and drafted Players and how they play out. Give some games the special treatment of being a one Game episode and make other a compilation episode. I liked this video because it continued the story of the last game and we also got more out of it that came after.

Getting fired would be such a crazy turn. Not that I want to give up on the players on this team, but a twist like that, still this early in the cycle, would certainly catch my attention. Go full NFL Head Coach Dolphins/Falcons.

I feel like the team really needs a star player on the D line, someone that can make an impact, that seems to affect how good the rest of the D plays.

Love the increased pacing

For regular season, 2 game per episode feels right. Find myself forgetting what happened in the earlier weeks of the season when the pacing is dragged out.

i like the format in this one

Yeah I think changing the pacing could be great. This season is a tight race for a playoff spot. However in the case of a "lost" season. Then going 3-4 games with highlights make sense. We all know the off season is the best part anyway.

Punter gonna be a pro bowler ⭐️

You can adjust depth of zones as you call plays. Just gotta be fast with the play clock runoff

I definitely think doing 2-4 game episodes to progess through the meat of a season is a great idea. When accounting for single or no game episodes (like the offseason and recaps), being able to average 2+ games an episode over the course of a series can get you beyond season 10 as opposed to struggling through season 5. Say you average 5 single game episodes and 2 non game episodes a season, you are then left with 12 games you can do in 3-6 episodes. If you can get every season done in those 10-13 episodes then it becomes like a tv or anime series in regards to 'seasons'. Even on the slower end of this suggestion, episode 70 would put you 5 episodes into season 6 of this series which would likely be approaching the trade deadline, or almost 2 entire years further along.

Man I talked crap about the end arounds not working and then of course it was a huge touchdown this week, smh. I do think the sliders for catching on defense needs to go up a bit, some of these passes just truly deserve to be picked off by the saint defense

i dont care about the pace 1 game episode or 2 its fine i just enjoy the content i dont care how long it takes as long as the content is great and it has been never need to rush a great series

Bro the Panthers snatched Westbrook’s passes, lunch, and maybe his soul. Tim Cannon might’ve been fired irl after this game.

These db's need some time on the juggs machine. Good lord the dropped picks

(Looks at video length, then hears Cane's long-form narration at the beginning.) UH oh...we've reached Two Part Territory again 😒😦

I would love to get faster earlier years. The buildup is fun during the offseason, but some of the actual seasons feel long

With two great receivers crossing routes/slants are your friend here Spend the coaching points, the top end makes a big difference to your O line

12:55 Oh NOW Westbrook and Pearman connect on a big play...

Any ideas on how to properly develop late round and undrafted guys. Getting a james harrison Antonio gates or even just an austin ekeler has happened zero times in any of canes series unless hes was playing a 60 soemthing overall guy and essentially ignoring his lower ratings in favor of performance but even those guys always just kind of fade into insignificance. Wouldn't an occasional puka nacua in the 5th be cool? I don't see anyway to do it except mamually adjusting ratings but that comes with other problems. Amy idea on this?

Day 23 of asking cane to finish the madden 18 bears franchise and get them a Super Bowl. Even if it’s a sim… I can’t give up🙏

And that's why you don't get cocky with those scenarios. Yes, if you do win in those scenarios, it will be big. But if you lose, your in a world of hurt .
