MADDEN NFL 06 TIPS & TRICKS
Touchdown celebrations
When you play as the Eagles against the Ravens and score a touchdown with T.O., dive in the endzone by pressing Square. He will do a Ray Lewis dance in the endzone as a celebration.
If you are playing as either Donovan McNabb or Daunte Culpepper and you get tackled into the endzone scoring a touchdown, they will do their trademark dances. Daunte will "get his roll on" and Donovan will do the moonwalk.
Player nickname
With a player named Troy Siegel (a drafted rookie three seasons into a franchise), Al Micheals will call him "Simian" in his commentary when he makes a play.
Create low paid all-star QB
Create a punter or kicker with all his attributes at maximum, including passing. You will sign him for a low salary simply because he is a kicker. Then, set him as the starting quarterback on the depth charts as the season begins. You will now have the best kicker/punter and QB in the league. You may also maximize all passing attributes and take the kicking attributes down to sign him at an even lower price. This is most recommended if you only rarely kick.
Making players suffer
If there is a player you dislike, do the following to make him suffer. Go to "Features", then to "Rosters". Select his team then choose the player and go to "Attributes". Reduce his injury to "0". This may take awhile; you may also want to set the game to four or five minute quarters.
