Are you seeking a change from the usual Madden 24 gameplay? Are you eager to enhance your Franchise Mode experience? Look no further! 

In this guide, we unveil the top 5 challenges that will take your Madden 24 Franchise Mode to new heights. If you want to better complete these challenges, please prepare enough MUT 24 Coins!

Challenge 1: Alma Mater Allegiance

Imagine crafting a team where every player hails from, say, the University of Alabama, a powerhouse of talent. It's like reliving the college glory days, but on a professional stage. 

Picture a squad where every player shares a common collegiate bond, bringing a unique camaraderie to your team.

Here are some rules to play by:

• College Loyalty: Only draft, sign, or trade for players from your chosen college.
• Trade Smart: Trades are permissible but only for alumni of your selected institution.
• Free Agent Restrictions: The free agent pool is off-limits unless they're college comrades.

So, you have something to work towards. Here are some objectives to achieve:

• Division Dominance: Clinch a division title with your college stars.
• Elite Evolution: Develop at least 1 player to elite status.
• Playoff Regulars: Reach the playoffs at least twice in 5 seasons.

Embrace the spirit of your chosen college. This challenge isn't just about winning games, it's about celebrating the legacy of a collegiate powerhouse in the NFL world. 

Challenge 2: No First Round Glitz

Think of Tom Brady, a sixth-round pick who became one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time. 

This challenge mirrors such scenarios where your skill in identifying and nurturing hidden talents comes to the forefront. It's about creating a team of underdogs ready to defy expectations.

Here are your rules:

• First-Round Farewell: Trade away any existing first-round players on your roster.
• Late-Round Gems: Skip first-round picks in the draft, focusing on later rounds.
• Underrated Talent: Build your team through lower-round picks and free agents.

Try to achieve the following objectives:

• Star In The Rough: Uncover a superstar from the later rounds.
• Winning Ways: Secure a winning season without first-round luxury.
• Elite Squad: Create a top-five offense or defense without first-round players.

This challenge is a testament to skillful management and the belief that stars can be found anywhere not just in the glitzy first round. It's your turn to find the next diamond in the rough.

Challenge 3: The One Contract Challenge

Imagine a world where player loyalty is fleeting, and every season could be their last on your team. 

This challenge brings a dynamic, ever-changing landscape to your Franchise Mode.

The rules are pretty straightforward:

• Contract Finality: Once a player's contract expires, they must be released or traded.
• Fresh Faces: Rely on the draft and short-term contracts for new talent.
• Tag Prohibition: The franchise tag is a no-go. Let the market flow.

With this challenge, your objectives are the following:

• Ephemeral Glory: Win a Super Bowl with a team that's always evolving.
• Rookie Spotlight: Develop a Rookie of the Year within your ever-changing squad.
• Consistent Excellence: Maintain a top-10 team rating despite the turnover.

In this high stakes challenge, adaptability is key. Manage wisely and watch as your team thrives in an environment of constant renewal.

Challenge 4: One-Dimensional Dominance

Visualize a team that commits entirely to either a ground and pound running game or an air raid passing attack. 

Think of the 2007 New England Patriots who leaned heavily on their passing game or the 2019 Baltimore Ravens renowned for their running. 

This challenge is about mastering one aspect of the game to an extreme degree.

The rules here are quite simple:

• Single Focus: Commit to either a pass-only or run-only offense for the season.
• No Flip-Flopping: Stick to your chosen style for the entire season, no matter what.
• Roster Customization: Tailor your team's roster to maximize your chosen offensive style.

Here are your objectives to achieve within 5 seasons:

• Statistical Domination: Lead the league in either passing or rushing yards.
• Playoff Success: Reach the playoffs using this extreme strategy.
• MVP Contender: Have a player from your team be a contender for MVP in your chosen style.

This challenge will push you to rethink traditional strategies and fully embrace a singular style of play. Are you ready to dominate the league in your unique way?

Challenge 5: "What If?"

Engage in a game of alternate history. For instance, what if Aaron Rodgers had never been injured in the first drive against the Jets? How would that season have unfolded? 

This challenge lets you explore these intriguing "what ifs" and rewrite history.

Here are your guidelines for your fantasy scenario:

• Historical Setup: Choose a pivotal moment in NFL history and alter it.
• Strategy Shift: Adjust your team's strategy and roster to align with the new scenario.
• No Rewriting: Once the scenario is set, play it out without further alterations.

Here are some objectives to add extra depth to your journey:

• Change Destiny: Achieve what the real team couldn't in your altered scenario.
• Ultimate Glory: Aim to reach or win the Super Bowl under the new conditions.
• Record Breaker: Break a real-life record related to your chosen scenario.

Here's your chance to rewrite history and explore the fascinating possibilities of what could have been. Dive into these alternate realities and carve out your own legendary path.

We are one day away from Madden 24, so I'm gonna go over the top five playbooks, so you do not miss a beat when the game releases. Let's get started.

5. 49ers Playbook 

At number five, we have the 49ers Playbook.

This playbook has a plethora of run plays including 0 1 Trap, Calendars, Read Option, and even Halfback Power plays that you can run with Wide Receivers in the backfield.

This playbook has Singleback Bunch X Nasty under Center, which is extremely tough to guard. The variety of run plays makes this playbook great for people who like to run the ball.

But, there are also some lethal pass plays in this playbook. 

Starting out of Shotgun Tight Y Off, we have the Tight End Corner, Choice Pivot Return and PA Go Slot Cross. 

Then, we have Shotgun Bunch X Nasty with Speed Dig, Smash Return, and Corner Out Dig. 

There is also a Shotgun Deebo Package where the Wide Receiver can run routes out of the backfield.

This playbook is extremely dynamic, which is why it gets the number five spot.

4. Bengals Playbook

At number four, we have the Bengals Playbook.

The Bengals Playbook is more of a pass heavy playbook along with the rest of the playbooks. But what makes this playbook special are the different formations it comes with.

First, we have Shotgun Tight Slots HB Wk with plays, like Flood, Post Wheel Drage and the Four Verticals play. Pair this with Shotgun Bunch HB Str with plays, like Bench Pivot, Y-Trail, TE Vertical and PA Bunch Shot and you have an extremely dominant passing game.

This playbook also has Shotgun Bunch Offset with Speed Dig, Smash Return, Flood, PA Dig Fork and Bench Pivot.

3. Jets Playbook 

And at number three, we have the Jets Playbook, which a lot of people have at number one.

There are a lot of great pass plays and run plays in this playbook.

Under Shotgun Trips TE Offset, we have RPO Trap Alert Bubble, Read Option, PA Crossers, and Levels Sail. 

The playbook also comes with Shotgun Tight Doubles - a great formation in Madden 23, Shotgun Bunch TE, Shotgun Bunch Str Offset, and just regular Shotgun Bunch. 

There are a lot of great under Center formations with a wide variety of Commanders Playbook run plays and unique pass plays.

2. Commanders Playbook

And at number two, which is really just tied with number one, we have the Commanders Playbook.

This playbook is almost unfair and looks like a custom playbook. It has Shotgun Bunch Str Nasty and pretty much every play in here is great.

This playbook also has Shotgun Bunch X Nasty, Shotgun Bunch Y-Flex, Shotgun Tight Open with plays, like Slot Post and Bench Dig Pivot. They also have Shotgun Tight Y Off, which is just unfair.

Then, we have Shotgun Tight Y Off Wk, Shotgun Trey Y- Flex, Shotgun Trey Y- Flex Str, Shotgun Trio HB Wk and Shotgun U Off Trips.

It also has some good under setup formations along with the Jumbo Package for Short Yardage situations. 

1. Chiefs Playbook

At number one, which again is just tied with the Commanders is the Chief's Playbook.

It has every formation that the Commanders had, so you cannot go wrong if you pick the Commanders or the Chiefs. And that is why they are tied at number one.

Outro 

So, those are the top five playbooks in Madden 24. I would also look at the Denver Broncos Offense Playbook, which could probably squeeze into the top five as well. 

If you don't have these playbooks yet, I suggest you prepare enough MUT 24 Coins to buy them quickly when Madden 24 is officially released.
