 I have waited a very long time for Pat McAfee and Madden, but this is not what I expected. Gold 99, middle linebacker, Pat McAfee. Dude! This Gold 99 Pat McAfee is without a doubt the best card in the entire game. He has a 99 overall. In every single stat, 99 speed, acceleration, strength, tackle, play rec, block shed, hit power, zone coverage, he's insane. Now he's listed as a middle linebacker, so we're kind of limited where we can put him. But there is a glitch in the game. If you don't have a backup tight end, you can sub your middle linebacker into your backup tight end, which means we could have a Gold 99 99 speed Pat McAfee on offense and defense. Ironically, the only position you can't put him is punter or kicker. Those are the only places you can't use him. Now of course, he's an absolutely insane middle linebacker. That's how we're mainly going to use him. I'm going to give him the Avalanche X Factor. He gets some crazy abilities too. He gets Enforcer for guaranteed hit stick tackles. Dual Threat is actually an X Factor, so this is crazy that he gets it. Most important though is Lurk Artist. We got to start with Lurk Artist. Makes you jump like crazy on linebackers. Dual Threat is a higher chance to defeat pass blocks and disrupt catches. Got to go Enforcer as well. And I could run one step ahead since it's free, I will, but I'm not going to be using this. He'll be my user, so this ability really doesn't matter. You get all four of those abilities for 0 AP. This guy is so stupid. Oh, he's so broken. The team we're going to be using today is already absolutely insane, but the important thing is we just need to sub on our tight ends. So if I take David and Joku and Rob Gronkowski out of my backup tight ends, it's automatically going to sub my best middle linebacker to my tight end too. That just so happens to be gold 99 Pat McAfee. So dude, my middle linebackers now are Pat McAfee, Luke Keekley, Clay Matthews, and Ted Hendricks. I've unintentionally built a very sneaky athletic lunch pail. First guy in, last guy out, linebacker core. But don't worry, we have some athleticism on defense. We got Brian Branch, sauce gardener, Joey Porter Jr. This is an insane team. Now everybody who logs into Madden Ultimate Team right now gets this gold 99 Pat McAfee for free. So we're definitely going to see him in a game. Our top five is Patrick Mahomes, Pat McAfee, Harold Carmichael, Joey Porter Jr. and Brian Branch. All right, gentlemen, it doesn't get much better than this. My goal for today's video. I want at least an interception on defense. And I want to touchdown on offense. There's our top three, Mahomes, McAfee and Carmichael. He's got, ooh, we got really similar squads. Let's go. Starting this game on offense. Let's see if it's actually possible to use McAfee in a meaningful way here. So he's actually a 34 overall at tight end. But that's not going to stop me. I'm still going to use him here. My only concern is sometimes to stop this, EA will make it so defensive players can't catch the ball. Let's find out. Honestly, I'm just going to air mail this shit to him. Oh my God. He's actually kind of open. Wait, wait, God, let's go. Bro, they don't have a face scan for him? Oh, okay. All right. All right. All right. Let's give him a corner out. Let's see if the corner out's viable here. Oh, he's got it. Oh, he's not a bounce. Okay, he's two for two on catches, but he stepped out of bounds there. So it's illegal touching. Damn it. This is working though. You can't say it's not working. We might not be able to stare him down. He knows what I'm doing. Oh my God, he catches everything. That was McAfee on McAfee right there. We still caught it. Yeah. There's no other way for me to sub him in. I can pretty much only get him in if I use a two tight end set. Cause I can't sub him in. The game won't let me sub him in as my starting tight end, but it'll let me do this. I think this corner out's going to be open. Hmm. I don't know. That's sketchy. All right. That's the first drop of the day. That's a true drop because that was there. Send him with a little Derek Henry run play, but damn that defense is solid. Third and nine going to hit. Nico Collins gets tackled by McAfee. That was a weird tackle. I got to go for it, boys. You know what I got to go for him. We got to hit McAfee too. Let's give McAfee an out route. We give him the short out route right here. He's just got to make a toe tap, sideline grab, fourth and three. Need it. Need it McAfee. Need it. Cuts. Let's go. Why is he so good? Like he's got 99 over on so many stats, but he doesn't have any like, doesn't have any catching stats. So I don't know why he's so good right now. It's broken. I'm going for it. All right. There's a drop. There's a drop. I think the best part of this is he's supposed to be a middle linebacker. He's actually going off completely out of position. All right. We don't got to force feed him though. We still have so many good players on this team. I'm going to hit McAfee. Juke to the outside. Beautiful. He's sending a lot of blitzes though. Oh, go for it. Dot. Oh. Familiar territory. Fourth and two. This will be our third fourth down conversion on this drive if we can get it. I'm going to go with the run play. I'm going to go stretch left side to make, oh, that's money. Is he there? Yes. That was close. My concern is I don't know how to get McAfee open for a touchdown here. Oh, he might be. He might be. McAfee. Cut. Shit. It's not close enough. We got a drag here. We're going to block. Gilliam and Newsome. We just got to let Pat McAfee clear on the left side on this drag. Give me some time, baby. Yes. Oh my God. My home's what a ball. McAfee middle linebacker. That's a hell. Look at that ball. That's disgusting. And he fucking caught it. I'd be so mad if somebody was lining me up with McAfee middle linebacker at tight end. All right. A little two point conversion here. Should be able to hit X. Oh, he's on it. Never mind. Oh, don't let him house it. Don't let him house it. Come on. Why don't we go for the speed on side? Who says we can't speed on side here, right? We got to get our on side kicks in while we can, gentlemen. This rule's been outlawed in the NFL. So we got to do our surprise on side kicks. Well, it's still possible. All right. So what type of defense should we run here? It doesn't really matter. We just got to cover everything with McAfee. So there's Keekley, Ted Hendricks, and here's McAfee. Does he want to go to his halfback? Derek Henry. Oh, shit. I got so excited to hit him. Little left side run, maybe. Yep. Yep. Yep. Go McAfee. Go McAfee. Second and four, potentially. Nope. Not another run. Look, Henry. Okay, he could. Doesn't get there. Third and four. He wants to go halfback again, doesn't he? Yep. Yep. Shit. Nice play. None of my adjustments are working. Okay. Nothing. Nothing. Nothing. Second and goal. McAfee, the sole linebacker in the middle here. Got a lot of ground to cover. Aikman goes down. Let's see what he tries. We got to get that interception. I want that interception. I got to fly back to 18. He's got nothing. He has absolutely. Oh my God. He caught it, but he's not in the end zone. He might, he might run this, do you think? No. Henry. Give me. No. For sure I was going to pick that. Wow. Nice play. Nice play. I thought I was going to lurk that. You suck. Short kick here to our big boy Carmichael. Ooh, big boy Juke. All right, we'll start this drive at the 35. I'm not so obsessed with scoring with McAfee anymore on offense. I kind of just want to score quick so that I can get back on defense. I'd be cool with that. He's been sending a lot of blitzes. Oh, he can't get to that. He's close, but not quite patient in the pocket. My home's is going to take off. Nice work. Could look at Carmichael. He's a big boy. Let's see how this looks. Oh, look at Carmichael. He's so, oh, oh, maybe not. I got lucky on that one. He's out of bounds. What about Carmichael right there? There he is. Carmichael on a hitch. Beautiful. I honestly think this is a touchdown. Let's find out. Oh, yo, that was it. Honestly, I just want to score so I can get McAfee back out here. I don't know how I whiffed that, but this should be money. Great catch, Carmichael. Almost there, boys. We are almost there. We're knocking on the door. Oh, there's A. Ozzie Newsom. Patrick Mahomes. Is that Jackson or Patrick out there throwing that thing? I thought we were like that. Thank you, McCaffrey. We get third in goal. We got two yards to go. But the hand is ball off. We really haven't ran the ball at all, huh? Let's hand this puppy off. Look at that. Christian McCaffrey. Thank you, sir. The field goal is a myth perpetuated by the government. We will be going for two every time it's available. Sun God, hitch route. They sleep on the hitch route. It's an underutilized route. Seven point lead. We've got a minute, 13, and three timeouts. We just got to hold them. All right, McAfee. Do it, do it, do it, do it. Oh, Akeman barely gets that ball off. Cover two, man, I like it. McAfee's responsibility is Derek Henry, so I gotta watch him. He won't throw it. Yep, let's go. Third and 10, great defense again. Oh, good ball. Damn, good ball, Akeman. I need to like sack him. I'm gonna blitz Joy Porter Jr. and Hendricks. I gotta cover the right side all by myself though. I've got 81. Juke, Juke, shit. Wow, talk about over committing to the Juke. I look like an idiot right now. Oh, I'm on this. Yup, he wanted that wheel route, but he knew he couldn't throw it. All right, third and two. This is a really big stop here. We tackle him in bounds at all. We're gonna force his hand. Goes over the middle with Derek Henry. He can't throw that. He can't throw that. Oh, yeah, that's how I thought. Hey, you gotta be careful though. They might be faking it. Nah, he's not. Hey, we'll have three seconds to make something happen here. Gonna do a classic little stat pad here at the end of the half. Why not, right? I'm actually gonna hand this ball off. Wow. That is the opposite of a stat pad. I just got TFL'd with six offensive linemen and three down linemen. He's gonna take this out. Ooh, ooh, I don't like that. Clay Matthews with a big hit. It's gonna take one big stop, boys. That's gonna be the difference maker in this game is one big stop. See if he wants to keep checking down to Derek Henry. Yup, just gotta cover this. Every time we'll be all right. Yup, let's go. Arithonald gets home. I just gotta keep covering the check down. That half bag leak out's been giving me so much trouble today. And there it is. There's Derek Henry, but not again. Eric Armstead. It's third and 32. He is in a lot of trouble right now. There's a wheel route out of Derek Henry. He feeds this in to Mackenzie Cawth. Fourth and 16. He's probably gonna no huddle again. Ooh, he's gonna punt. What? Really? This is what's so ironic about the McAfee thing. Like, you can use Pad McAfee to do anything except for punt. Like, he would love to have a gold 90. Oh, no way. Uh. It's gonna say he'd love to have a gold 99 McAfee punting right now. This Aminra hitch-route, I think is money. Absolutely. Except he dropped it. He dropped the ball. We gotta pick this up here, boys. This is not looking good. I'm gonna give Carmichael a whip. Ooh, McAfee. We needed that big third down. Can't go back to it. Ooh, are you open? Are you open? Ozzie Newsom! All right, I'm gonna hit him with his favorite play, the half bag leak out. This is his favorite play. Oh, he's out. No! Dude, McAfee just ran into alignment and wasn't, oh my goodness, McAfee. That was bad, bro. All right, second goal. I've got a lot of posts. I'm going for it. Whoa! Nico Cowan says the ball. Third and goal. I think Carmichael is open on the hitch. I don't know. Joey Porter Jr., are you out of your mind? F***, bro. Just made a diving INT. Oh my God, that was insane. I gotta look at Henry. Oh, he's gonna step out the back of the edge zone. He almost went Dan Orlovsky. He was so close to Dan Orlovsky in that. Oh my God. Mine, mine! Oh, I didn't catch that. I think it's a pass. I just gotta go get Derek Henry. This is such a big down. There's Derek Henry. There's Dan, oh! Who was that? Oh, that's so big. He was untouched, he quits. Script writers were in their bag. Now, the only sad news about this McAfee is the card itself goes down to a 91 overall on the fourth. So you only get the fully juiced McAfee for a little bit, but wow. Dude, opening play. He took it for a 50 yard bomb. Honestly, did more on offense than I did on defense. Oh, his spectacular catch is 99 and his catch of traffic is 99. That's why he was catching like crazy. That actually makes sense now. Well, those route runnings are 10. He has 10 short and 10 deep route runs. So it's actually, it's impressive that he was getting open so well. All right, boys. Gold 99 McAfee, I'm so glad he did this. They gotta do more stuff like this, man. Seriously. All right, y'all. Hey, I love you guys. Thanks for watching. I'll see you guys the next video. Peace.
