 Starting with a budget of 100,000 coins, we're gonna build the absolute best team that we can. And if we win an online head to head, our budget will double 200,000, 400,000 all the way up to 3.2 million coins. This is Double or Nothing. Hey, what's good you guys? Episode one, Double or Nothing, another season. There are 12 positions to fill out offense. There's 13 on defense, and we also need a punter and a kicker. Exactly 100,000 coins to spend. Let's waste no time. My first purchase is gonna be a player that every single team needs. I'm gonna start with a budget beast running back. There's a Matt Breedah, 78 overall, with 84 speed and 84 acceleration. For 2,400 coins, that is super good. At quarterback, I'm getting 83 overall Baker Mayfield. He's 25,000 coins, which is actually a quarter of our entire budget, but this is our quarterback, so I gotta do it. I'm grabbing gold Franco Harris for 3,500 coins at fullback. A shockingly good wide receiver is 81 overall Chase Claypool. 64, 84 speed, 87 jump, 7,700 coins. Another solid wide receiver, Skymore, 79 overall, 84 speed, 80 jump. Smaller than Claypool, but he's a little bit shiftier. He's got 89 acceleration. Final wide receiver is gonna be Traylin Burks. 83 speed, six foot two, 85 acceleration. Wide receivers are expensive. One of the guys I really wanted to go after on this video would have been Tyquan Thornton Wide Receiver with 87 speed or Rahim Moster. The problem is their prices have shot up. In future videos, we'll probably use this Rahim Moster, but he used to be like 8,000 coins and now he's 22,000. 87 speed, 89 acceleration. He's nasty though. He's really good, but let's win today. We'll double our budget and we can pick him up next time. And one of my favorite budget tight ends is O.J. Howard, 80 overall. He's 6'6", so he's already huge. 87 agility, 84 speed. He's not gonna block for you. So if you're looking for a block in tight end, this is not the guy, but he is really good for cheap. So here's what our offense looks like right now. We got Baker, Breeda, Frank O'Harris, Chase Claypool, Skymore, Traylin Burks, and O.J. Howard at tight end. Also on the O-line, you'll notice Kevin Maui. Everybody gets him for logging in, so I thought it'd be fair to use him with no upgrades on him. And I'm taking a different strategy. I'm not gonna buy any other offensive linemen. I'm at 50,000 coins, so I have exactly 50K to use on my defense. By the way, I like this Baker Mayfield because he's just good at everything. There are a lot of QBs with these throwing stats, but none of them have good speed. So I like that Baker can run a little bit. He's no Michael Vick, but he'll certainly run. I just like this card a lot. I'm excited to use him. An awesome budget middle linebacker, Devine Diablo. I'm gonna get him for 7,600 coins. Our coin count is looking low, but I actually already feel pretty good about this team. We'll see how the offensive line holds up, but Diablo, six foot three, 83 speed, 82 Excel, exactly what you're looking for in a user. His change of direction is 69. It's not very good, but honestly, with how budget this team is, you kind of just have to get clapped somewhere or you have to use her as safety and run nickel or dime defenses, which is also an option. For my backup middle linebacker, I'm rocking Owen Popao. Dude, I don't know. This is probably a name you haven't heard, but dude, look at this guy. 83 speed, 85 Excel, 71 change of direction. He's actually a pretty damn good user, too. The rest of his backer stats aren't that great, but once again, we've got 100,000 coins. This is a pretty nasty card for 1,800 coins. An insanely good budget strong safety is Cam Chancellor's 81 overall. 84 speed, 82 Excel, six foot three. This is a monster card. It is 7,500 coins. Kind of hurts our budget, but we need this card. One of my favorite cards in this game, Free Safety Daxton Hill. 83 speed, 84 Excel. He's even got 78 hip power in there. He's six foot, so it's not like he's 5'10 or something. 2,500 coins, dude. If you guys watched Double or Nothing last year, you will 100% remember this name, Caleb Farley. Okay, 2,200 coins. Six foot two, 85, 85. Last year it was a headliners promo card. This year it's just his core rookie, but yeah, that card is ridiculous. Has no business being that good. Andrew Booth Jr. 3,000 coins, 84 speed, 84 Excel, agility jump. He's actually got better coverages than Caleb Farley, so another insanely good corner for cheap. Now 81 Eric Stokes is one of my favorite budget cards in the game, but we just still don't have the coins for this. 87, 87 this card is nasty, but if the 81's nasty, then you'd imagine his 75 is nasty too and it is 85 speed, 84 Excel, he's six foot one. I always get comments. People say, you know, he isn't the only thing that matters. Yeah, that's true, but the word I use is triage. We have 100,000 coins and we just might face an opponent with 92 speed Tyreekill. So if you think I'm throwing out an 80 speed corner just because his man coverage is high, you're wrong. I am putting the highest speed players out there that I can if I'm building a budget team. At the tackle, I'm getting leaky photo. Apologies if I butchered that name, but he's very slow, but the rest of his stats are very good for a 79 overall. 83 strength, 78 block, 77 power moves, 4,000 coins. Very important position, especially in a lot of the defense I run is outside linebacker Nolan Smith has an incredibly good budget outside linebacker card with 83 speed, 85 acceleration. I love this Nolan Smith. I like the 84 Nolan Smith too, but you can only get that 84 if you play Madden 23. So we'll take the 76, 6,000 coins and we are coming down on our budget here. At right outside linebacker for 2,300 coins we'll get Nick Benito 81 speed, 85 Excel, 77 tackle, 77 finesse moves. He's definitely better than Nolan Smith and he's cheaper. So this is just a really good card. A lot of times though, a card's rarity has nothing to do with how good it is and just how rare it is. For example, Nick Benito is in the Great Iron Guardians promo. So people are pulling this all the time whereas Nolan Smith is just a core rookie. It's a little harder to get his hands on. So keep that in mind. Prices don't always indicate how good a card is. At right end I'm grabbing Jalen Twyman. 82 strength is pretty solid, but honestly I am just really low on coins here. So I'll take what I can get. And at left end I'm picking up Javon Curse. I like his speed and acceleration. It's always nice to have a left end or a right end that's fast just in case you play somebody who spams QB rollouts. 77 speed is not that fast, but it should be fast enough to contain an RG3 or Michael Vick. And the lineup is complete. This is our defense. Daxton Hill, Nick Benito, Devine Diablo, Owen Papao, Papo, Owen Papo, Nolan Smith, Cam Chancellor, Andrew Booth, Javon Curse, Ty McGill, Lakey Foto, Jalen Twyman, Caleb Farley, Jalen Ramsey. And then on offense we got Mallway as the only non-silver in the O-Live. We got OJ Howard, Chase Claypool, Traylin Burke, Skymore, Matt Breida, Baker Mayfield and Frank O'Harris. And with 4,500 coins, I can pick something up. I'm gonna pick up 77 overall Braxton Jones left tackle and I'll pick up Paris Johnson as my right tackle. That'll take us down to 340 coins and the team is complete. So now this is truly our completed lineup. The only thing left hanging on this entire team is my guards. I'm completely okay with that. I'm not really gonna be running between the guards anyway with a team of this caliber. I'm really gonna be running to the edge with Matt Breida. We'll be checking down to Matt Breida and our offense will consist of short passes and edge runs. I like running the ball at the middle of the defense but that's a lot easier when you have 86 overalls up here. So it's just not in the cards. So it's nice that we were able to get a 77 left tackle and a 77 right tackle just to protect against the pass rush and trying to seal the edge on stretches. OJ Howard's gonna be a great threat. So will Chase Claypool, Skymore and Traylin Burke. They'll be solid. They can definitely beat man coverage. Breida solid, like I said, Baker. Hopefully he doesn't miss too many throws. It is really hard for even the best quarterbacks in this game to make every throw. So we'll see how Baker plays. And then defensively, we are all budget B-side here. Cam is insane. The 81 Cam is probably my favorite card on this defense. Diablo is gonna be a really nice user. Daxter Hill is good. Farley and Andrew Booth are budget studs. Foto, Twyman and Curse. I am a little concerned about the D-line. We'll see if the D-line holds up. If we play a guy with a 90 overall O-line and a 90 overall running back like Run CMC, we're gonna be in a lot of trouble. There's no doubt about that, but we'll see. And then of course, the free Jalen Ramsey is a solid card, but if you guys don't want the free Jalen Ramsey, you don't have it for some reason. Like I said, I got Eric Stokes for this reason. Eric Stokes is actually faster than Jalen Ramsey. Jalen Ramsey obviously just has better coverage stats. All right boys, this is the team for episode one of Double or Nothing. We have to go win a game with this team. And once we do that, we double our budget to 200,000 coins and we reset the entire team. We are a 77 overall, but we're a super well-rounded 77 overall. This isn't like Wheel of Mutt. When I was 77 overall at Wheel of Mutt, it's cause I have five God squad players and 20 absolute shitters. So I like this 77 overall a lot better. It'll still be scary if I face up against a 90 overall team, but 85 and lower, I feel good. That's an elite top three if I've ever seen one. OJ Howard. What does he got? Sean Taylor, RG3 Richard Sherman. It could be worse. That's kind of what we're looking for. We're gonna start this game out in quads and I'm gonna feed OJ Howard down the field. Great ball from Baker. And OJ comes down with it. Let's go. I'm gonna stay right in this formation. Give OJ Howard the whip route. I can have a few short routes in the field. That's a DPI. So this is a free play. Ouch, Jesus Christ. I got fucking rocked. I'll take the first and 10 rather than the second and four. I'd rather have extra plays. First and 10 here, he's pressing. The only thing is I can't really beat press. You need a Tyree kill to beat press. So let's just see what this will give us. I like OJ here. He's actually got a blocker. No, fuck. Hey, 12 yards. It don't matter. We are really efficiently moving this ball. Can't tell if this is man. I just can't tell what this is. Oh, you're a butt naked. OJ Howard, get a little juke. Down to the seven. Look at this offense. The 77 overall offense. Inside zone going right at the teeth of this defense. Let's try it. Let's see it. Silver guards. Great blocks. Breeda is in. Big winner lovers on the board. You never know that that's a silver guard. You just wouldn't. Five plays 77 yards a minute 30. That's a quick touchdown. Let's go. First in 10, he's going play action. Does he look at the... That's a bad ball. Oh no, that's an amazing ball. Dude, that was a hell of a play. Holy shit, what did he just hit me with? All right, we're gonna send a blitz. I can't let him do that again. Diablo up the middle. Oh, we affected that pass. Oh my God. That 89 overall Jerry Rice just caught a net. That should have been picked off. That was good defense though, boys. I'm not mad. I'm not mad about that. Come back to it. Yes, yes. Oh my God. I was catching some horse shit right now. What? Yes, sir. Dude, you are actually shitting me. What kind of drive was that? That was just horse shit all around. All right, whatever. Yeah, thank you. That's what's, yeah, that's karma. If I score and get the two point conversion, this is a nine point game. Would you fuck off? User hit stick fumble on a fucking kick return. Oh my God. Maybe you can get this lucky for a whole game. Guys, I'm kidding. You can't get this lucky for a whole game. It doesn't matter. I'm going to win this game. Oh, look who it is. Oh, and Papo. Bottle line. Let's see if Breida can get this. He should be able to good. Just make this more manageable for us. Give me a little further away from that, right? Second and eight. If I step up in the pocket, just a tiny bit. I don't risk a safety here. That's the important thing. I got OJ right there. Oh no, I don't. Nice play. Damn, I thought he was taking the drag. A turnover for a turnover. And he's right back here again. Unless he's scrambling. Papo. Oh my God. You're kidding me. My kick returner fumbled. He doesn't fumble that. Oh, he's going to run the exact same thing. You mind me? You better. You fucking better fumble that time. Two straight hit stick fumbles. RG3 finally goes down. Who will sell the game harder? Me or the Jets? That's the question you must answer. But let's let him go on OJ. And we throw Matt Breida. He took Matt Breida honestly, but it didn't matter because we still picked up a solid four yards there. Good. Go Breida, go Breida, go Breida. He was, this Matt Breida is a dog. He was one broken tag away from a touchdown. Who is guarding Traylon Burks? What is that fuck? That is so ridiculous. That throw was so bad. Holy shit. It's literally a turnover battle. Who's going to turn the ball over more? Damn Baker. You sold Baker. Traylon Burks was so open. I need to simplify my offense. My team is not good enough for me to be throwing these haywire balls. Oh, can we tackle him though? Good tackle. First and goal. Dude, he could have fumbled again. He is so risky with that. I think he's got anything open. Traylon Twyman. No, the corner routes there. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. RG3 misses fourth and goal. Yup. He throws in the middle, but it's fourth and goal. Let's go. Dude, how am I going to move the ball? Why can't I move the ball right now? Traylon Burks understood hitch, right? Like that should be so simple. Okay, check down. Thank you. Chase Claypool. There we go. First and 10, I got two interceptions right now. We need to chill out and just go win this game. Ooh, I missed. I missed a very easy throw. I'm just going to sit in this pocket though. I think I have time to reassess this. Oh my God, look at Baker's pocket presence. Does he hit that? Baker, you're a God. Holy shit. Look at that silver O-line. That silver O-line holding up. I'm so impressed. All the way across to OJ Howard. Turn the corner. Get a juke. Oh, he's flying down, but he doesn't have the angle. Oh my God, Matt Breida. Matt Breida is just such a beast. Dude, if we fumble, I'm going to cry. All right, I got all the horrible plays out of my system, guys. I'm only going to play perfectly from here on out. I say, as I do that, what was that? Traylin' Brooks is stupid open. Get down, yes. Oh my God, I actually wanted to be down on the one. This is perfect because I can burn a little bit more clock now. We're going to run this right at the middle goal. Ooh, calls his first time out there. So we burnt one of his timeouts and I didn't go backwards. So that's good. Let's see if we get a push this time. We got Franco Harris for this. Good, good. Oh my God, that was textbook. We burnt an extra 30 seconds. We burnt an extra timeout. So 14 to six, we're just going to leave it right there. Good to go. Hey, RG3 goes down, wait a minute. RG3 just went down second and 20. I'm sending a fucking monster blitz. If he runs this bomb, guessing pass. I'm sending a huge blitz. If he runs the ball, he's going to get me though. Play action. He throws. Wow, that was sketchy. Third and 10, he calls a timeout. I'm through. I'm through. I'm on him. And he still delivers that. What? In daxton. He goes for two and I missed. Ah! This is utterly fucking ridiculous. This whole game is ridiculous. The throw over the middle here is actually hoping to get a block from Skymore there, but that's okay. Same throw. Just got to get out of bounds on this one or preserve my one timeout. I got to go get a field goal here. I'm going to send Skymore and chase Claypool across. Got to hit Skymore here. What a ball. Oh no. Yes! Holy shit, I got that off. That was fucking crack. Dude, Madden Giveth and Madden take it away. Sometimes you get hit, stuck, fumbled on your kick or turn and sometimes you get a physics defying timeout. Play action from the jets. We got, oh, so much pressure. There's a flag. That should get a roughing the fucking passer. Dude, could this game blow me? Why are you hoeing me like this? Dude, is this RG3 God? How is he making these throws? Jalen Twyman is somebody. Step up and get that man. Oh, he got hit, stuck. He actually got hit, stuck. Let's go here a bit. I thought for sure I fucking got his ankles and I blew that up. This is such a crazy game. This guy's so ass. This kid's so fucking lucky. Wow, he guessed pass. Matt Breedah! Breedah, Breedah, Matt! Breedah, third and 10 and zone! Dude, what a monster. 24 to 21. This is a game, dude. This is a hell of a game. I play like such an idiot and I'm still winning. That's crazy. Kick off right, deep kick. Hopefully this isn't returnable. Please know, please know, please know. Like why? Why, man? I kicking off right is a full power kick. So stupid. Just hand him the fucking game, EA. Holy shit. How many possessions are you gonna heam this guy? What a loser! Patience. Oh, I had the wheel. Baker gets out and gets rid of it. Thank God. Beauty. He switches off. That's crazy. Great play. Ooh, Matt Breedah barely dodged that first tackler. Second and nine. I'm scared of scoring because it means I have to kick off. Okay, so he took his deliming out of the play which lets Baker roam free. First and 10. Good juke, OJ! God, this is what a hard fought battle here. Yup, pulling some time off of this clock. Getting negative yards there. I have to convert here though. So I can't be playing this passive. Is that man? I can't tell him. Oh my God, catch of a lifetime from Traylin' Birx. Holy shit. That was actually diabolical. I don't know, but Baker looks like he could get a little bit out of this. Just can't fumble. Second and three. He doesn't see Matt. Matt Breedah's fourth fucking touchdown. Matt Breedah's a monster. That he has four touchdowns today. Are you kidding me? 31 to 28. It's looking like my field goal before the first half. Man, I'm being super crucial. Three minutes, four seconds left. I guess I gotta squib this or onsite it or something so that he doesn't get a cakewalk touchdown that he didn't earn. Yeah, I mean, what do we think here, boys? I'm gonna squib this with no power. I've seen people do it to me. It's been pretty effective. And yeah, I gotta manually get on Nick Bonito and go fucking down there. Please. No, what? Like, what even is this, man? And he breaks the tackle! Like, fuck, fuck off! Fuck off, what do they turn into God every time you kick the ball off? Just cause you don't have the best team in the game? Uh-oh, RG3! Second and 16. Yup, we got to him again! It's third and 16. Oh my God, am I gonna just crush him with these man blitzes right now? Who's he gonna go to, Jerry? Does he go Jerry? He doesn't get it off! It's fourth and 16! We can end this game right now! Gone to empty base flex. If I get him here, it's over. Cakewalk Cinderella story might have just ended. 31 to 28. I still gotta get rid of all this clock, though. Wow, somehow he stopped that without a fucking defensive lineman on the side of the play. That's okay, that takes us to the two minute warning. I just need like one first out. I'm gonna go Breeda. Just no fumbles, Breeda. Tackled, it's third and eight. I need a really good play here. Is this man, if it's zone, I can hit Claypool, I think. All right, we gotta try it, boys, with one second on the clock. Claypool, he's, oh, it's overthrown! Fourth and eight, he still has all three time outs. I gotta go for this. Putty doesn't even matter, he's gonna score in less than a minute 22. Wow, let's go, he's there! Oh, he's not! Okay, it's a punt. First and 10. I'm gonna need some sacks here. Throws a deep corner and it's open. Nice, nice play. First and 10, a minute 13. All right, we're gonna shade outside. I gotta sack the quarterback. Kim, count on RG3, wait, backball! And accepted! Caleb Farley, running, he's chewing clock! Caleb Farley! Dude, RG3 finally, finally didn't make a play. He finally, the pressure finally affected him. And he's gone! Master class, five, 10, Matt Breed, 84 speed, 84 excel, four touchdowns. Honestly, I really shouldn't have been a game. My opponent was getting so bailed out, but a dub is a dub, baby. That's so crazy that that was even a game. Hey, that is it for episode one. I'll see you guys in episode two, where we double the budget to 200,000 coins. We'll start with no players as well. It's only downhill from here, but the coin count only goes, it doesn't work. The analogy doesn't work. It's gonna get a lot better. Hey, I love you guys. I'll see you in the next episode. Peace!
