"The Rain Game" - Madden 24 Saints Franchise (Year 5) - Ep.79
Ойындар
It's Year 4 of the Madden 24 Saints Franchise. After two tough seasons forcing us into a rebuild, we're hoping to emerge as a playoff contender once again. With a new Quarterback and exciting offensive additions, could the pieces be in place for the Saints to compete for the division title?
My Franchise on Madden 24 begins with the New Orleans Saints. The Saints offer a unique challenge compared to any other team looking at their future cap space problems and aging roster. The Saints are not a bad team in 2023 at all. But their future could not be anymore problematic as cap restraints will cause them to move on from players, including some of their aging veterans they still rely on.
I aim for a more sim feel to my Franchises. I play on All Madden sliders that promote a more realistic play style. I have developed my own XP sliders to create a more authentic feel to Franchise in terms of developing young players and replacing regressing veterans.
This will be my biggest Madden 24 series, and I'm excited to get the rebuild underway.

I saw the video length and thought to myself, "Oh it's gonna be one of those games"
"I love the way this favored the Saints to go 4-0" I knew this would become an ugly loss as soon as Cane said that 😅

Like the style of the video. I'm a long-time watcher and have to admit that one of my guilty pleasures is hearing the sad music following multiple interceptions. I know I'm not the only one.
i would’ve liked another game in this episode but i would always like more and more content lmao. great vid cane can’t wait to see how westbrook bounces back! or if he bounces at all😵💫
Couldn’t help but notice Juan Beard was to blame for losing contain on the read option that broke the game open for the Jaguars on 3rd and 18
I dont usually like these types of episodes because you can kinda tell from the moment it starts that its gonna be a loss. Takes away a lot of the tension and some of the excitement for me to be honest
Man when Madden wants you to lose it really makes sure you can't do anything.

With Canes sliders an 80 Overall is basically around the 20th best in the league. Outside of this specific game (with the idiotic rain scenario) I feel like Westbrook actually plays like he is supposed to: A big armed young QB, who has some issues with accuracy
I believe the proper term would be "John Waters gets clogged up"

As I recall, Waters had a pretty good yards per carry (5.0+). It was Roby who could just manage three yards per carry.
The safety draft pick was a banger !

@Dill_Pickle_6938 IIRC, Binns' X-Factor was already spoiled by a glitch where it popped up in the Focus Training menu. Cane was probably just trying to keep it something of a surprise regardless (the exact same thing happened with Treyvon Randolph in the Titans series), and then the would-be reveal got overlooked amidst the Saints getting hopelessly blown out and the video consequently shifting to a brisk past-tense recap. No need to be so curt about the understandable oversight, methinks.

this could have easily been a 2 game episode! thanks for the content
Cane in this video: Bullet passes right into a defender instead of lobbing it, causing an Interception. Gives up a 3rd and 18 on a qb sneak where he was controlling the player and just didn't tackle the qb. Keeps Pearman in the game when it's clearly out of reach so he gets injured. Here's to hoping next week's game goes a little better lol.
Chad Binns is an X-FACTOR!!!! HE NEEDS TO PLAY!
Feedback on the style… I could almost tell we were gonna lose the way you set it up. Maybe wasn’t expecting 48-10 but I’d prefer not having any inclination whether we’re gonna win or lose either way. I prefer watching this as if I’m a viewer watching it for the first time where the commentary kinda reflects that. This style is more effective when we do multi-game episodes when we’re trying to rap up a lost season
I liked the style of the video! I agree with you, if a game is going sideways I think people would appreciate you kind of playing it straight and going for a more summary-focused commentary than the play-by-play.
Happy to see priestly get his shot. Feed him some. Madden just said "You Shall Not Pass"
david westbrook will do wet ball drills until morale improves
The incredible amount of misses was just bizarre in comparison to the CPUs, that certainly seemed to be a bit of madden scripting. On to the next.
As soon as I heard, "an inexperienced running back, inexperienced quarterback, I loved the way it favored us to go 4-0", I knew this was going to be a horrible game and that Price would look like prime Barry Sanders. Ugly game
i clicked on this video the second i got home, looked at the time, and knew exactly how i was about to end the night lol
16:56 For a rainy day, that Jags coach has got a really bad sunburn on his head😬
We need the Stockton meter to come over for Westbrook
Gotta speed up the regular seasons I think. We have a young Franchise QB whose career we want to see play out and the new Madden is 80 days away so you’ll be able to get in maybe 25 episodes?

It makes sense. They are a dome team.
This QB play is going to become (already is) an issue, I wonder if we almost missed the development of David Mayweather?
I did not see that coming, I thought you would just run through them on your way to Buffalo. Next game won't be the same, keep the faith Cane!
Tough one to watch . You’ll get em next time Cane. GG
Absolutely brutal
Blowouts you definitely gotta do a 2 game episode. Very competitive games do a 1 game episode.
Apparently the Jags got ahold of your comments regarding their capabilities.
I love the series, and how you try and make Madden as realistic as the engine will allow, but it drives me crazy how many times you have benched QBs across the years for mediocre backups, haha.
Very unique and I love it. It’s new, different and it works for me as a viewer

Except that this video lasted pretty much as long as the ones before, defeating the whole purpose of editing the game down. I don't want to sound like a Negative Nelly, just pointing that out. If Cane could find a way to make the actual video length shorter, or do two games in a 25-minute video then he'd be on to something.
3 runs 9 yards and a first down, i love madden
these bot account going crazy and it's been mere minutes
Kinda noteworthy to me that it's taken this long for the Saints to play another member of Westbrook's QB class. By this point in the Titans series, Brian Nava had played Joshua Holcomb twice, Kerry Ferrell once or twice (can't recall exactly), and would've gotten to play against Denver's Simon Clemons if Madden understood that "Russell Wilson sucking the entire first half" was just cause to let the rookie play. It's an interesting contrast!
The common theme of this series: abysmal QB play and 3rd down defense.
Would’ve been a good time to do a double header episode
Feel like this would’ve been a good two game episode

@wheattt1 Obviously, this has absolutely zero bearing on the actual gameplay, but from a narrative/storytelling/whatever perspective, it also feels worth mentioning that Blake Westbrook hails from Arizona, which receives less than 1/4th of the U.S.'s average annual rainfall. Add that onto Cane explicitly headcanoning that Westbrook only started for a single year at Arizona State before declaring for the NFL Draft, and it’s not too inconceivable that you could count all the times he's played under the elements in his entire career on two hands or fewer. Again, that semi-canonical background isn't at all relevant to his actual in-game performance, but it is the sort of "Trevor Lawrence never loses on Saturday"-tier trivia I imagine would come up all too often on in-universe discussion forums and what have you.
Awesome video despite the loss.
Benching your young 3-0 QB in a heavy weather game is so weird, at best you get is Sam Darnold seeing ghosts like narrative. Medium and deep throws were not helping much either
should of added 2 into a blowout like this
the accuracy slider HAS to get tweaked
Wish this episode had another game in it. Oof.
I’m old school so I like the play by play lol. But I’ll watch whatever you put up cane
Benching Westbrook at halftime after going 3-0 is kind of brutal. Also mayweather hasn’t shown anything good in a while
I knew the long wait between videos meant something bad. Here comes the 5-plus game losing streak 😢
This was… not what I expected
bro got deep fried
2 game style in a video that includes a 10 to 48 loss wouldn’t be so bad 😂
Justice for Juan Beard. He deserves starting snaps.
These are the games that should be 2in 1 episode Cane
I appreciate you trying to do something new with their series. This madden is just meh and it sucks sometimes
Burn the tape.
Never gonna win when the coach gives up after a quarter
a west coast offense would work with the wr core & the qb westbrook
Why is Cane bullet passing when he supposed to be lobbing the ball in Westbrook 1st INT?????
Westbrook was fine. Knew it was raining so it was gonna hard to throw. First throw you threw was 30 yard throw on the move. Of course he’s gonna miss it
“Roby averaged 3 yards a play, so nothing was going right for the offense”. Seriously, the run game was not to blame for this bad offensive performance. Not realizing the passing game was not the way to go early enough was. Punting is OK, the turnovers in the passing game are not.
This is a top five loss in the history of canes madden franchises

It’s how your playing. Plus playbooks and schemes maybe but mainly your play. Not bashing you man just want you to be successful
Westbrook is pressured almost every pass play
Once again, Saints fans must be scratching their heads over the poor judgement of the teams' QB Room. In just the first quarter, Blake Westbrook managed to throw, not just one, but two interceptions. In each case, it was the judgement, or lack of good judgement on the part of Westbrook, that created the interception. For his very first pass of the game, Westbrook sent a ball out to his right as though it were a laser beam. Did he not even see the defender between him and his intended receiver? Why use a bullet pass with a defender, playing zone, between him and his intended target? Would something thrown with a bit more loft to the trajectory have cleared the defender and resulted in a completion? Probably... Westbrook's second throw to the wrong colored jersey came as the first quarter was counting off the last minute of the clock. It was 3rd and four to go on the Jaguars' 37. The running back was wide open on a swing or wheel route to Westbrook's left, his TE was fairly open on an out route to his right, and Westbrook elected to throw the slippery, wet ball twenty yards downfield to be picked off by a defender. When has Westbrook demonstrated pinpoint accuracy when making deep throws in the rain? Some horses are mudders, others (like Frank Loesser's "Paul Revere") are more adversely affected by rain. Based upon the poor accuracy demonstrated by Westbrook in this instance, we can easily guess whether he is a mudder or not. Westbrook would continue to miss open receivers through the second quarter, being replaced by Mayfield for the second half. Mayfield also managed to throw to Jag defenders during his stint in the second half. His first (note the spoiler in saying "first") interception came on an errant throw to a button-hook pattern, while his RB (Waters) was wide open with no defender within ten yards of him. Admittedly, the RB was behind the line of scrimmage, but there was ample open ground in front of him to at least pick up a handful of yards. A handful of yards is no bad thing on first down, ask any RB in the league, wouldn't they be satisfied with getting a 5 yard carry on first down? The second Mayfield interception was almost a duplication of Westbrook's first interception. With the TE on a flag route to the right, Mayfield rifled a bullet pass right to the defender playing zone between the QB and the intended target. Would more air under the ball on that pass have cleared the defender and resulted in a completion? Probably... Perhaps the problem is not with the QB's, but rather with the poor coaching they are receiving. Something must be done to improve the decision making of the QB's. My eyes turn toward the QB Coach and the OC.... The Jaguars' QB, last year's rookie Grant Woodard, managed to complete the game with about a league average Passer Rating of 95.8 (256 yds, 1 TD, 0 Ints. 68% completions) while the Saints' QB's combined for 142 yards, 1 TD, 4 (count them FOUR) Ints. and 47% completions. Their Passer Rating ran from dismal (Mayweather, 40.0) to catastrophic (Westbrook, 16.7). Westbrook only attempted ten passes, but threw interceptions for 20% of them. Mayweather threw twice as many passes, but failed to complete even half of them. Something must be done about the poor showing of the QB room. Some may excuse the dreadful performance due to the wet weather. But the real problem is one of exercising good judgement. If you need four yards for a first down on your opponents' 37, why throw the ball 20 yards downfield toward a trio of defenders when you have two options available throwing the ball shorter and (almost by definition) easier and more accurate throws? I refer to Westbrook's second INT. Both Westbrook and Mayfield made the same error of throwing bullet passes when something with a less flat trajectory could have cleared the defender and resulted in a completion for a first down. Longer passes are inherently less accurate than shorter passes. Neither of the Saints' QB's bask in their renown for accurate passing, yet neither made adjustments to offset the additional inaccuracy that came with the adverse weather conditions. Given that the problems are present with both QB's, I can only conclude that real source of the difficulties is the coaching. - sj
I hope this was just a one off for Westbrook this year. He was looking good. This game was terrible.
Day 29 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🙏
QB change isn't going to help a user error. Day 700 of saying "turn the int sliders down"
You have 3 series’ going at the same time. 1 game per episode will equate to 1 season taking 2 months. Need to increase to 2 games per episode at minimum. In your Cardinals franchise you talked about speeding it up, but we’re at episode 20 and still in season 2. I know you want to see all your players play, which is fine and good content, but a little more simulation wouldn’t hurt. In my opinion

I really think this is something madden does to script you to have a bad game 🎮 no matter what you do how open a WR gets the game always seems to make you miss,I've had games like this where my QB will absolutely SUCK! when normally he's not that bad just my opinion
mavs in 7
First non bot comment. Love myself a rain ground n pound game
I salute you for still playing this garbage
No reason why Richards isn’t starting
Only let Westbrook throw ten times before you took him out the game. Why??
Bro...
Mayweather looked just as bad as Westbrook in this game.
I must say, the most Saits QB play I see, the worse it seems to get. Westbrook couldn't hit the ground with a ball if he was aiming at it. Mayweather is only marginally better.
Lowkey might have to stop watching this series bc of canes IQ
Somehow these garbage qbs with worse accuracy are hitting dots when Westbrook can’t get a pass within three yards of his receiver. I would have restarted this game with how much baloney the AI was creating.
Westbrook honestly has to go after this season. Time to take another chance at a different qb because he is not a long term starter imo
They didn't have no offense and no defense and did not play like a 3-0 team,they played like a 0-3 team(TRAP GAME) Pathetic
JUSTICE FOR MAYWEATHER. GET THAT IMPOSTER MEHSTBROOK OUT OF THERE
Fire the coach. Coach doesn’t believe in the team
begone bots
This was hard to watch honestly, not even a bit fun
I’ve seen enough of Westbrook man
Westbrook is not the answer. Period.
Your comments are so dumb. 3-0 to start the season. You lost this game and say it's not a good look for Westbrook. I really do hope you don't make the playoffs now.
I dont like these types of videos. I like the play by play.
Embarrassing.
