Create low paid all-star QB
Create a punter or kicker with all his attributes at maximum, including passing. You will sign him for a low salary simply because he is a kicker. Then, set him as the starting quarterback on the depth charts as the season begins. You will now have the best kicker/punter and QB in the league. You may also maximize all passing attributes and take the kicking attributes down to sign him at an even lower price. This is most recommended if you only rarely kick.
Easy sacks
Be a defensive lineman and back up a few feet. When the play starts, immediately run forward and hitsick an offensive lineman. He will fall down and your person will still be running fast towards the quarterback. Then, sack him.
Easy sacks and pressure the qb
First you need to go to the coaching strategy then to substitutions and switch your re with the fastest person possible then on defense go to the goal line defense and pick gaps fire once you come to the field you press l1 and left then r1 and right and triangle and right what this does is leaves the re wide open with no one lined up against him 9 out of 10 times he will either sack or pressure the qb to throw a bad pass.
Easy touchdowns
Take the best wide receiver on your team and put him in the tightend position. Audible his route so he does a fly (straight) route. Because he has such a low overall rating, they might just have a line backer on him or he might not even be.
Easy training camp points
When on offense, select an offense with three receivers. Trip Bunch in Single Back formation works very well. Put the defense on goal line Zone CB cover. By doing this, no one rushes your QB, and once your receiver gets past the zone, they are left unguarded in the endzone for a guaranteed 48 points per play almost all of the time. This should work with most short zone coverages and does not take many attempts to learn which receiver to pick, mostly anyone running a long slant.
Fake Deuce McCallister stats
When your game is loading you will see a player and their 2004 stats while you are waiting. Once you see Deuce McCallister, it shows that he had 1600+ yards rushing. However, Deuce had 1074yards rushing last year (2004).
Go to Performance Institute more than once per week
In NFL Superstar mode, you can go to the Performance Institute more than once a week. To do this, do not go until the day of the game. Then, go and do whatever drill desired. When you are done, leave the map and go to your schedule. Leave there, then go back to the map and you can do it again. This will allow your player to be very well prepared for the next game.
Hire Dan Baker as an Agent
To hire Dan Baker as an agent import a NFL Street 2 created player or NCAA Football 2006 Legend into NFL Superstar Mode.
Interview questions
In NFL Superstar mode, make sure to choose your answers to interview questions wisely. The answers will affect your personality type and most endorsement companies want a player with a more conservative personality type, such as "Team Leader" or "Professional".
Making players suffer
If there is a player you dislike, do the following to make him suffer. Go to "Features", then to "Rosters". Select his team then choose the player and go to "Attributes". Reduce his injury to "0". This may take awhile; you may also want
to set the game to four or five minute quarters.
Movie line
When you get the movie deal for Muligan O'malley, in the last scene your line says something then "Mt. Dortiz". However the correct answer is "Ms. Dortiz".
NFL Superstar mode: Agents
Your agents you get are based on how good your player is. For example, if your player's overall rating is at least 84, you will get Dan Baker as an agent. When importing players, that RBs get better overall ratings, no matter how many Heismans or any other awards you have won. Your superstar's overall rating is based on your Heisman over ratings, that is then randomly altered slightly each time you import. When importing from NCAA Football 06, player's stats are randomly done. You can retry for better stats. The interview after the mentor meeting determines some stat boosts to important stats for your player's position.
NFL Superstar mode: Better IQ
If your IQ results are low, save the game before the IQ day and try ver again until your percentage is high. The same can be done for the draft. Save the game before the draft. If you do not like the team that drafted you, you can do it again.
NFL Superstar mode: Choosing an agent
If you have a player whose personality rating is "Disruption", choose Jason Morales as your agent. He can usually get you a movie deal before the first season starts. Stay away Aubrey DeLong. He is not a good negotiator and it takes forever to get an endorsement.
NFL Superstar mode: Easy practice points
Create someone as a QB, then go into a practice and select a HB Swing. Have the defense do FG Block. When you say hike, lob the pass to your RB, He will score a touchdown for 48 points every time.
Pick a formation with at least three receivers, Then, choose a play that has an inside receiver doing a slant or short post. Pick the defense 4-3 Engage Eight or 3-4 renegade. Simply throw the ball to your slanting receiver every time. He will be wide open and get tackled for 17 to 48 points per play.
Choose a deep pass play on offense. Choose I Field Goal Block on the defense. You should be able to get a touchdown every time.
Use the following trick to get easy training camp and practice points for offensive players only. Select the Hail Mary for an offense play. For defense, select Goaline and the Blitz C. Call a Hot Route to have your left outside receiver run a 5 and out towards the sideline. The left slot receiver will be open every time to get a touchdown. When completed successfully you will get an "A" for a practice grade and boost your player's stats.
NFL Superstar mode: Getting traded
After you create a player and sign an agent, go to the draft. Start the draft. You will probably be selected in the third round unless you imported your player from NCAA Football 2005 or NFL Street 2. If you do not like the team you got drafted by, then simulate the preseason. When the preseason is over go to your agent's office on the city map. Scroll down to "I demand a trade". You will be traded to another team. If you dislike that team also, then demand another trade. Be careful, as you can only demand two trades until next season.
NFL Superstar mode: Increased stats
You can get your Overall, Awareness and Stamina up in practice mode by having your superstar get practice points by getting a big gain on offense with your superstar, or creating s big loss with your superstar on defense. You also can get
your stats up by getting an agent that has the Performance Institute and get a medal on it:

Pennants
Get a "Gold" in one of the following tasks to unlock the corresponding pennant:
Due to the fact that the punt blockers do not like to block very much, you should select the "Punt Block" formation instead of any other punt return formation. With the "Punt Block" formation, the punting team will not be spread out, therefore allowing your blockers to somewhat block for you; which in turn will give you more time to field the ball and have a little space to start something big.
Sign created player with high attributes for three years
When you create a player, make him a free agent. Then, get his attributes up to 75. Next, sign the player for any team desired. Go to that team's rosters and edit his attributes. You can make it as high as 99. When you go to franchise mode with the team the player you created will be on the team with a contract for three years.
