14 experiences that only happen to Madden NFL 25 players

Madden NFL 25 brings some really memorable experiences — both good and bad. When things are going great in your game, you feel like you're invincible. But when things go bad, you question why you even play the game. Nevertheless, Madden players live and die with this game. Here's some experiences that only happen to Madden NFL 25 players.

1. When you throw an interception and yell at the QB like it's his fault and he pressed the button.
