Madden 25 Franchise Rebuild Ep.1 - A New Beginning for the Jacksonville Jaguars

[@MrHurriicaneLP]

WE'RE BACK! These Franchise Rebuilds have been some of my favorite series I've done, but it's been a while since I dropped one I felt was truly great. Here's to this rebuild taking us on a wild ride with a lot of fun along the way.

[@HiddenPanths]

Dude just wanted to play with Mac Jones again, you can’t fool us

[@MrHurriicaneLP]

So about the part where I said I might not do much with XP sliders in this... disregard! I'm already running 10 year sims while I work on other things and tune things for the series.

[@nicholasbuffone175]

21:55 That whole "Definitely benching all these guys for perfectly normal non-ranking reasons, thank you very much" sequence was absolutely hilarious. AND THEN WE WON ANYWAY. You can't write a better comedy sometimes 19:00 Fun fact about that Madden 16 Jags-Cards Super Bowl: the Cardinals' QB in that game was, of all players, Chase Daniel after their usual starter (some guy they'd drafted whose name escapes me) got injured about halfway through the season. How'd Daniel do in the big game? Well, he threw three touchdowns… but also three interceptions, all after having driven to the cusp of scoring range, TWO of which were returned for touchdowns, in a game Arizona went on to lose by a mere six points 21-27. Gannon-esque self-defeat, that right there.

[@MWDeuce02]

Cane - this year they added that OL can update their dev trait through the training camp drills. Something to keep an eye on!

[@coopercarlson4307]

I have extremely fond memories of the Texans series like this. The off-season after Watson was an all time episode

[@MrHurriicaneLP]

I really enjoyed that one too

[@billyroberts9459]

Being a jags fan really sucks. Luckily I can count on Mr Hurricane to bring them back to life.

[@MrHurriicaneLP]

[@italianmafia9695]

This where it started for me madden 16 i saw your video gave it a try and just loved your content and how you do your franchises 8 years later your content still feels very fresh to me. I miss those old playmakers like the GOAT Nate Bell Reggie Shepherd and Nataki Mason

[@Heck3]

Excited for this one. I found you with the Browns 0-16 and I love this style in madden.

[@Ferretywrath]

"RICHARD" KIDD GETTING GENERATED AND THEN CENSORED HAHAHA Never change, Madden. XD Never change.

[@RobertMessenger91]

Probably said Dick Kidd. Lol

[@legendinthemaking5305]

It’s the legend of Dick Kidd

[@aaronsanders4122]

That name gets u on a list😂😂

[@RhythMan2112]

Tank Bigsby: the anti tank commander. He must’ve had a helluva pregame speech before that Colts games

[@kevinkibbe2679]

I've always enjoyed the integrity of these series. There is no cheesing or any of that

[@michaelpatras9970]

Can’t wait for this series! Still liked the newer versions of this series, but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t like the older ones better. So I’m excited for the change back to a faster pace! Let’s go Jags! Shoutout Cane for 10+ years of content! I started watching in middle school and now I’m almost 23 and still watching!

[@megamuffin15]

YES! So glad Madden rebuilds are back. I think another good house rule for the series would be to also respect free agent motivations during the season (since you can otherwise just sign anyone during the season regardless of motivations).

[@MrHurriicaneLP]

I think I like that too

[@chrisjames8979]

Honestly? Maybe trade Etienne before or during the draft? He's got a lot of value and Tank has shown he can be a #1 back.

[@charlieDavidNorman]

NATE BELL THE LEGEND IS BACK. Now i just need some Nataki Mason.

[@kirby11]

for what its worth, I love that texans rebuild. Its second only to the Browns.

[@deathminder9206]

I like the "resting" not tanking in the last game at all.

[@bigbearb_gaming]

Alright Cane, it's a race. Let's see who can win the Super Bowl with the Jags first 😂 Best of luck

[@coachjbrew2411]

It’s been some time since I got excited about the start of one of your series. I’m looking forward to this one for sure.

[@Michael-kw1mz]

Been catching up on the Saints rebuild and I finally get to follow one fresh again. Super excited to watch this!

[@konnorpharris4694]

This is awesome bro! Been watching consistently since the Vikings series. Glad you’re going back to the old ways LETS GOO

[@JustZeech]

Looking forward to this franchise and love the videos!!! Another idea I’ve always been curious to see is a franchise but you manually adjust overalls each year based on performance in game as opposed to static madden progression/regression. Would heavily shake up franchise I feel

[@connorboucher6007]

Cane I know this might be a big ask, I'm not really sure how much this would add to editing and whatnot, but if there could be a way that you could add some of the fan favourites from the Miami Hurricanes series to the draft classes, that'd be awesome. It'd be cool if you could mirror their stats but lower as they are going to the NFL. Then you could follow some of their careers throughout. If you get to year 10, it'd be fun to see how Randy Titus and Colin do in the NFL!

[@lightningmcdunn8508]

Let’s goooo! Cane you got me addicted to franchise, I’v been consistently doing full seasons of CPU V CPU since your Lions Rebuild stream way back on M17 as a kid. Now I’m a sophomore in college, I’m working with Jon Gruden in social media, aspiring to work in the NFL one day. Keep putting out content, I know there is a lot of viewers like me that have been inspired through their childhoods from you. Appreciate you so much man 🙏

[@connormcdermott541]

I love the changes that you are making to this series

[@Andarath69]

LETS GOOO!!! So glad you're doing a Madden 25 rebuild!

[@Heros_GamingYT]

The Load Management just to still lose is crazy LOL. Richardson is the worst qb in Madden Franchise. His sim stats are always 20+ ints

[@tjharris6530]

Really looking forward to this series Cane Madden 25 content this year has been subpar imo, but I believe in you!!! Best of luck bud

[@tyrannicaltypomichaeltester]

Im soooooo excited for this. . LOVED, The Browns Cardinals. My advice Trevor Lawrence Wont be a high overall, Id trade him first thing. Pick draft capital trade for another player get a REAL fresh start. Lets GOOOO

[@tical2399]

Good job. The lack of madden really hurt my engagement with the channel.

[@Scuubizzal]

First time commenter but long time viewer. I decided to start off just like you did....same slider settings, team and starting point but that's it. I want to see the difference in our decisions and compare records in 5 years!

[@FloWoelki]

Do you know which gameplay sliders he uses? I am just curious about having a better gameplay experience :D

[@jpsix9939]

This will be fun and wish you luck 🤞 hurricane 🌀.... Woooo

[@KansasJayhawksFan96]

I didn’t know if you’d do a madden franchise this year with how good cfb 25 has been super excited for the series hopefully you can rebuild this team

[@Misterrogers187]

Yessss, so hyped for this! The cpu stuff is my absolute fav series

[@racinegarrett]

best series you have made on these channels, would absolutely love an experience that rivals that of the Browns or Cardinals.

[@basicaccount36]

My friend and I have just started an online franchise with him being the jags and me as the titans using these exact premises. We’re in year 3 and im really excited to see the differences between your rebuild and the way he treated his.

[@mespn520]

Oh man, here it is!

[@micahgovan9471]

loved the texans franchise series format

[@7elevenevan]

hope you do a full play series on the main channel in this madden or at least the next. I replicate so many of my franchises after your style and love the in universe stories you create w/ those teams. you get to really fall in love with those players. Ik madden this yr has been disappointing and CFB 25 has stolen a lot of its shine but i still think you got it in you to do a madden series as well as you're doing your buffalo bulls one

[@hunterparks9505]

Super excited for the new franchise!

[@cjayh4589]

This is very exciting looking forward to this. Definitely have to build up everything, wonder what Cane will do with Lawrence

[@Not_Theon_Reek]

Let’s gooo! Cant wait for you save my dumpster fire of a team😭😭😭

[@samuraicer317]

It's just odd because if there were a few plays that went differently, this team wouldn't be 2-10 but the defensive scheme has been awful and honestly the offense isn't the same like it was at the end of 2022 or the beginning of 2023. Just nice to see what you think your view of what the Jags could be in the future

[@elmoslayer144]

I have no problem with you bumping up Walker Littles rating to at least 75. He’s a starting caliber LT in the league, he should be rated like one. No shame on adjusting when Madden is off.

[@jamiegamesalot3901]

New madden franchise! We are so back!

[@austinpost5487]

Can't wait, this is gonna be another great series.

[@Oshujax21]

Don't miss out on Corrin Haggerty this time, Cane!

[@nicholasbuffone175]

That was the Madden 17 Chargers franchise, you fool!!! :P

[@edwardcanez]

That's exactly the franchise I wanted. Please make Lawrence the QB he was supposed to be.

[@simheadacademy2569]

Madden 16 franchise was arguably the best series on this channel when it comes to Madden content. Madden 13, 15 and 17 was all good as well. Madden 25 was nice as well with your series.

[@chrisrenshaw6372]

Jaguars is a very good choice

[@Gotasman]

I can't believe I've been around long enough now to see Cane rebuild the Jags twice now. As a fan it hurts but at least Cane wont be as bad as the IRL front office.

[@kirdney04]

You don't know how happy and exited I am for this series❤❤

[@kirdney04]

Maybe I'm the only one but I also really liked the Texans series as it was the first I actively watched because I just started watching the Nfl like 1 year before, of course I rewatched the old Franchises hahaha

[@SlyFirebird]

This is going to be an amazing series

[@racinegarrett]

if you stream the offseasons, maybe even just the first one, that would be plenty of fun

[@wickedswinggolf2387]

This was a good pick to run it with this year

[@gkdunch]

Nate bell being the coach is the only right pick

[@djmcconnell_]

The browns series is legendary.

[@chadraybon4822]

I can now watch my Jags lose in heartbreaking fashion both in real life and on KZbin. DUUUVAL TILL WE DIE Edit post video thoughts. Parker is going to be the long term slot, he and BTJ have been the lone bright spots on the offense this year. ETN getting moved isn’t outside the realm of possibility Bigsby has just outplayed him this year. The whole team has potential to be a high mid tier team up there with the Steelers just the inability to play a complete game has plagued us under Pederson. That won’t translate well in Madden so a complete gutting is probably necessary.

[@elijahclemmons6928]

Im hoping the long-term storytelling will be back for these 🔥. Its my favorite seriees by far.

[@lilboaterboy868]

Until the team is a serious contender I think watching the first game and last game of the season would be the strategy. That would help speed it up and still allow everyone to watch the team as well. Could also just be two random games as well

[@InterimName]

Hyped for another rebuild, but I’m not done binging the raiders one yet

[@chichi6627]

Excited for the Jaguars franchise and also what is your passing mechanic for this series

[@alexanderwoodard2665]

Watching this at the same time I watch MNF feels like watching 2 different timelines at the point they split 😮

[@Buffbison55]

Scoring to go up 2 scores and ruin your draft pick then hitting the violins is actual comedy. Jags can’t even lose well. This is gonna be a challenge.

[@Chris_WD_23L]

I’m a jags fan and might be biased but I think the Madden ratings guys got a few key players for the Jags wrong. I’d say Trevor should be around 79-80, Walker Little should be higher rated, and some of the receivers on the other hand are rated too high. Anton Harrison also should be a bit higher imo. Looking forward to this as a fan!

[@slimmdusty8809]

Looking like it needs to be trenches focused in this first draft. And honestly probably be best if this teams bad again and get another top 10 to 5 draft position next season.

[@zach6911]

Please put some of the players that go to the league from buffalo

[@derekhudnall5231]

Where and when will we see the cfb 25 Miami dynasty draft class??? This franchise??

[@nicholasepple8798]

Nate bell is already a such a good coach he can beat the Cane tanking allegations

[@jonathan4289]

Oh this is gonna be awesome

[@kirdney04]

I also just started a Titans franchise a few days ago as I take a pause of Ncaa perfect timing😂wish it would be possible to import draft classes after like year 5 of dynasty or just regenerated recruits smh

[@MrDwats316]

You should have more realistic scale contracts. It makes the challenge harder and you actually have to make tough decisions with your FAs. Also consider manually editing cpu contracts to reflect realistic moves

[@ducati4prez]

Real ones remember Lance Adams vs Nate Bell

[@mespn520]

Since Nate Bell is the coach, you better draft some elite CBs, Cane!

[@cialnorthall8796]

Do you still use the 24 xp sliders or know if they will work on 25? I loved using your sliders last year and I’m hoping it’ll mostly just carry over as the game doesn’t change too much year to year.

[@centristamerican7845]

Go for tee higgins and reuinite him with trevor. If anything will help Trevor's development that will be it

[@alexalicea4874]

as a jags fan, this is great

[@Zuddyyy]

Will be keep dynamic home field Advantage on or keep it off?

[@cameronkestner3759]

Do you do any house rules? Like only signing fa’s with yellow or green interest in your team or anything else?

[@travisakerson8589]

I'm pumped but I wish this was the patriots!

[@questioneverything7399]

Make sure you wear the throwback leaping jaguar uniforms as much as possible

[@MinnesotaPro-z5g]

This is such a good idea.

[@kevinsobiski5212]

Now, you have done the entire AFC South in the last few years except the Colts.

[@michaellong5849]

Love it man!

[@tylerbernard3687]

18:51 these were the days 😢 would it be possible to bring back the older madden franchises like 17 and under (throwback idea)? 18:51

[@tylerbernard3687]

22:19 love the storylines😂 definitely need these more

[@CP-vm9ky]

FINALLYYYYYY

[@sircamsta]

Booting KZbin up and seeing this thumbnail has me feeling some type of way

[@ColeridgeProd.]

I would trade away Travis etienne and potentially use him to trade into the late 1st round or early 2nd where a lot of the cbs are projected to be picked

[@iamtannerful]

DUUUUUUUUUVVVVAAAALLL

[@psychorabbitt]

It's just peak Cane to have him put in all of the worst players for the finale to secure the tank and they play lights out.

[@Zuddyyy]

What will be your quarter length? The same thing with 11 min 20 acc?

[@MrHurriicaneLP]

Most likely. The week 18 game in this episode was light on plays so I'll be double checking in case this game needs something different.

[@hunterparks9505]

Let’s go!

[@DolFan316]

Congrats you are first 🤘🤘🤘

[@khariszmakidd18]

Finally!!!

[@devyndowling689]

Walker Little and Trevor Lawrence were drafted the same year

[@alexander1389]

A second jags rebuild? 👀

[@asamcmillan9072]

Use octagonal Gaming’s xp sliders. His are really good

[@stuartwhaley4274]

I think trading Engram and Etinne makes a lot of sense. Engram is 29 and a so his value and production will only decrease and he wont help get the team where it needs to be and the jags were shopping etienne in real life following tank bigsby outshining him.

[@Mfurtz]

Oh hell yeah
