First of all, we hope all of our readers had an incredible and safe 4th of July weekend!
It is always a really exciting day when the new Madden game is released - this year’s iteration seems to come with many changes and upgrades. The game will be released on August 20th.
One of the big changes to this year’s game is sure to be divisive among the game’s hardcore players and fans. EA Sports has announced that each team will have a unique ‘home field advantage’ in the game.
These are the Home Field Advantage M-Factors for each @NFL team in #Madden22

The home field advantage for your Tennessee Titans is an interesting one to say the least. The good people at EA decided to make it so that the Titans (and their offensive line) avoid committing holding penalties while playing at home. You can check out the Titans’ advantage along with the rest of AFC South (and AFC East) here:

I’m not going to lie to you... this one feels kind of random. Despite having one of the most exciting offenses in the NFL, the Titans still feel like an afterthought to most people outside of Tennessee. I have no idea where this ‘holding advantage’ idea came from.
I haven’t played a new Madden in quite a few years. I am tempted to see what it looks and plays like on the generation of consoles. You can pre-order the game here.
Also, this is one of the best troll attempts I’ve seen in a while. Ha!
Madden is getting too realistic this year with these homefield advantages. pic.twitter.com/gVgGqRas2B
