And so I got my first win this week, an 18-14 victory against a player who I'd argue was likely roughly at the same level as Madden 22 coins me perhaps marginally better. As alluded to above, however, they lacked patience: they had never punt the ball, even on fourth-and-long, and they left some odd calls. In all honesty, I felt certain I'd slump to a reduction when they had been successful with an onside kick from the opening kick-off and I then gave up a touchdown, but I stuck with it.

I managed to get a touchdown and also a two-point conversion in my first drive, then I got a field goal at the end of the half giving me a 11-6 lead at halftime. I have to acknowledge the victory did feel somewhat hollow because my opponent's impatience ultimately handed me the match. If he would have played aggressively, I believe he was probably a better player, and could have conquered me. 

We also, luckily, had fairly evenly matched squads; the higher-level Ultimate Team players essentially rely on the characteristics of certain cards, and while I've an excellent team, I don't have the best squad. I can't cry about pay-to-win, though, since the reality is you can give most Madden NFL players a group of 80 entire players and they'd still beat my group of 90s.

With most people asking why this event is occurring, as nobody involved Madden NFL 21 has commented on the crossover, it would be simple to suppose that there is simply no answer supporting the team-up. However, one Twitter article from CBS perfectly explains the logic behind the pairing, as SpongeBob's function in Madden NFL 21 is connected to the NFL playoffs. This Sunday, the New Orleans Saints and Chicago Bears will be playing every other at a Wild Card game, with each team expecting to brave the tough route to the Super Bowl. However, the game will not only be broadcasted on CBS, as a dual broadcast will happen on Nickelodeon.

The Twitter post announcing that the news showcases some of the things that will be understood from the Nickelodeon edition of the event, with the televised appearance including some searchable images like slime in the Kid's Choice Awards and googly eyes being placed onto NFL stars. With visuals mimicking the most popular online sport Roblox used to cheap Mut 22 coins recap particular plays, the broadcast surely seems to know its audience.
