Better Catches
To do a better catch than the normal one, where the player throws his hands in the air at the last second and most of the time misses, simply press Catch a second or a half a second before you reach the target of the ball, or before the ball reaches the receiver. The player will do a better looking and more effective catch, such a one handed catch, a jump catch, a spin catch, an over the shoulder catch (good for lobs), or a better diving one if the ball is out of reach.

Learn The Basics
Before trying to create a franchise you should learn the game first. You should go to practice first and that will help you learn plays, then maybe tryin trying 2 minute drill. If you spend quality time on those you will be ready to start to play.

Madden Takes A Closser Look
When your playing madden 2002 in any mode, you can get a cool camera view by jumping into the end zone at the corner closest to you. When the replay comes on you should see the black above & below when it is like that look at the replay. It will stop as you jump into the end zone and rotate (like the matrix) then start to move again.

Always Get Coin Toss
After you first see the players running onto the field for the coin toss, start tapping X. Keep tapping X so that you pick HEADS right away and stop tapping once the ref starts to flip the coin. You will always win the toss but this only works if your the visting team.

Easier Compleation Or First Down
For an easier compleation, or first down choose J. Fassel's play book. Then choose the "Single Back" formon. Then, after choose the play "Corners." Before you get sacked throw it to the "O." Although the catch may go out of bounce its ok. You have till forth down. Note: This works the best if you use the giants and Ike Hiller as the reciever.

Get 300 Or More Tokens
Here is a very easy (I mean REALLY easy) way to get madden tokens. First go to the main menu and select rosters under options. Select any team and go to the edit player selection. Change all of the player stats to 15. Save your roster and go to Two Minute Drill. Choose the team you changed for the defense. Then choose a profile to save it to. Choose the Ravens (or a better team if you have on)and select All Madden level and begin playing. Find a good runing play and keep doing it if you score a touchdown. If the defense brings you down, then call timeout. If you scored about 4-8 you should have around 300 tokens!

Always Get The Ball
First under the settings turn off penalties. Then when you're in the game always do an onside kick. Move the arrow as far as possible to the left and down as far as possible. Then kick the ball you should always get the ball unless you kick it to hard and it goes out of bounds.

Sacks & More Sacks
If you want to pile up sacks in a game, use the 3- 4 deffense, choose OLB Blitz. Shift your linemen to the right, shift your linebackers to the left, take your middle linebacker and put him between the LG & Center of the opposing team. You will be this linebacker, do not put him as a down lineman, that's too close. As soon as the center snaps the ball hit your "o" button & press down on the control pad. You will run through the line and hit the QB quick! You will get blocked after awhile, if this happens, do everything the opposite way, instead of Linemen to the right, go left and so on.

Punt Block
Blocking a punt is too easy! Choose to return a punt(center), never choose to block a punt. This is based on whichever side the opposing team has their last blocker before the punter. If he's on the right, you come from the left, if he's on the left, you come from the right. Shift your linemen to whichever side their last blocker is, take one of your outside guys from that same side, run him over to the opposite side, line him up about two body lengths away from the last lineman. At the snap of the ball press your directional pad down and hit the "O" button for a run burst. Keep going more than likely if you've timed it right, you will tackle the punter, if not you will have to jump and block it.

Tokens For Madden Cards
If you want tokens to get more Madden Cards just sell(if you have it) the card with John Madden on the front. When you sell it you get all the tokens plus, when you buy your next pack, you will get the card back! You can keep doing this over and over and over. It'll work everytime!

Madden Tokens
Play as a really good team. Play against either a European team, or the Monsters or mummies. After the coin toss, set the A.I. in every category all the way up for you. And all the way down for the computer. Depending on how well you play, and if you play at All-Madden level, you should have about 600 to 1100 tokens.
