There are as many ways to get to the end zone as there are athletes trying to get there. Part of the fun of Madden is figuring out which one will lead your squad to glory here are a few of my favorites, including the one I'm currently scoring with.

Baltimore Ravens

This is the one I've used primarily for the past two years. If you have a mobile QB, it is a great one to rock with. It has some of the best QB runs in the entire game, including QB Wrap out of Gun Spread Dbl Flex and Gun Heavy Raven's QB Power, which was the foundation of one of last year's most broken run schemes.

It has a wealth of option plays and brings a lot of unique wrinkles to the game. Once you add X-Factors such as Freight Train to the mix, 200-yard rushing games are not out of the norm with this playbook.

Seattle Seahawks

If you loved Alabama's playbook in College Football 25, have I got a deal for you. Seattle has some of the most explosive plays in all of Madden 25. Gun Bunch TE's PA Verticals has one-play TD potential against Cover 2 and Cover 3, two of the most commonly used defenses in the game. Gun Tackle Over gives us a run glitch so potent it is now banned in the Madden Championship Series.

Green Bay Packers

This is a balanced playbook in that it offers multiple ways to gash defenses with passing and running. It's not balanced in terms of gameplay, as it contains so many of the game's best formations it feels like a custom playbook. Gun Trips TE, Gun Bunch Wide, Gun Bunch Strong Nasty, this playbook is ridiculous. PA Boot Over from Gun Bunch TE is ready to make opponents rage quit for one more season. Oh, and lest we forget, there are cheat motion plays in this bad boy.

Miami Dolphins

As I reported on here, the Dolphins are breaking the NFL in real life. Their new plays have been called "cheat motion" because they function like the cheat codes in a video game. The NFL is a copycat league, so nearly every Madden playbook has a few of these. But of course Miami has the most and the best because this is their offense.

Miami has a versatile book with Singleback and Shotgun formations, as well as a good old fashioned Gun Bunch. If some of the wacky stuff goes awry, Gun Bunch is a good, safe reliable formation to throw from.
