Each week during the season I will run a full simulation of the Giants game. All Madden, 15 minute quarters, injuries and depth charts up to date to the best of my ability. So with that said, here’s the Madden 25 Week 3 Recap:

Newton Shines, Giants Lose “Must Win” Game 39-21, Fall to 0-3.

Cam Newton did it all Sunday putting up over 400 combined yards with 3 TDs in the win over the Giants.

Number 1 not only threw for 224 yards and 1 TD but also rushed for a unprecedented, record breaking, 210 yards with 2 TDs.

It was the read-option that did the Giants defense in as Deangelo Williams also added 104 yards of his own.

Good news however: The Giants racked up 7 sacks on the day, with JPP leading with 2.

Eli Manning had another terrible game being intercepted 3 times by a depleted Panthers secondary, and was also sacked 5 times.

Rueben Randle had a semi-breakout game with 4 receptions for 79 yards and a TD

David Wilson finally showed some life with 84 yards rushing, but it was Brandon Jacobs who got the two TDs, should have had 3 but was stuffed at the goal line after cutting outside.

Madden 25 has gotten the outcome of each week correct so far becoming 2-0 on the season.  Giants need to beat the videogame odds this week, or their season is in serious jeopardy.
