I did this by downloading the roster Billz99, go to customise on the main menu, then select share and manage files from the menu. Then select the download community files option, and download the file Billz99 created by xl krondo lx.

Then still in the customise menu, select load and delete files. Go over to rosters, and then select the Billz99 roster you just downloaded.

Go back to the main menu and select franchise.

Choose cloud, and start a new franchise. Make sure to select, use active roster.

Make sure you select the Buffalo bills and before you start the season, select league settings. Change the skill level to All-Madden, and salary cap to off. Towards the bottom of the menu make sure Re-sign players, Fill Roster, progress players, sign off season free agents, and simulate game prep activities are all set to on. I had my league to private but don't think that would effect you unless someone else joins.

Back out and then make sure you select the create a coach option and the team builder style .

Now start the season, and go down to advance week, press left to select sim 10 years, and press and wait for the 10 achievements to pop.

Once you have all 10 achievements you can cancel simming, you do not need to wait for the 10 years to finish. Mine popped in the offseason of 2021. Hope this helps!

Still works like a champ! Thank you.

Make sure it is a brand new coach, not rex ryan

By TheDrunkMrLahey on 19 Nov 2016 00:49

I did this but no achievements popped?

By michaelused on 24 Aug 2016 04:48

Not sure where you went wrong Michaelused. Achievements started popping for me within seconds of starting simming.

By NiteJokester on 24 Aug 2016 05:21

I own the 10 hour trial. I followed everything to a t. Never popped I stopped at the end of 2018 season. My coach is level 30 with 41925 xp. Not sure wat EA did but I hope someone gets it fixed. I tried the gold last night also an nothing either I have 2 golds now.

By SizzlingGore on 24 Aug 2016 06:05

If you only own the trial the achievements won't pop. I had the same issue but after I purchased the game they popped, but I did have to do them over.

By Myst3ri0 619 on 24 Aug 2016 12:34

Ok thank u was wondering wat the issue was.

By SizzlingGore on 24 Aug 2016 16:55

I just popped the final one in Super Bowl week 2020.

By Aj6627 on 25 Aug 2016 04:03

Billz99 doesn't exist by that author on xbox 1

By BoDEAN on 27 Aug 2016 21:26

i searched billz99 and had no problem

By HangmanK7 on 28 Aug 2016 04:08

Works great but for some reason the Tom Brady achievement did not pop. My coach has over 67K in points. Hopefully it's a glitch that self-corrects

By II Mr Powers II on 28 Aug 2016 15:47

+1 - thanks worked like a charm.

By LuvMyXBOX on 28 Aug 2016 15:49

BoDEAN, search roster, not author.

By MungBard on 28 Aug 2016 20:13

Worked perfectly. Thanks!

By Fista Roboto on 29 Aug 2016 05:17

@II Mr Powers II - 67k points as in legacy score or xp?

In case others are asking, on the Franchise main screen, click RB >> Manage >> My Coach >> Spend Coach XP and under the name you'll see Legacy #####. If its not above 25,000, sim another season and check again! If it is and STILL no achievement pop, unfortunately I have no answer :( Good luck?

By qManballin on 30 Aug 2016 03:28

I did exactly everything read. And the roster will not load up. It always just reloads the current nfl rosters

By BurnedMr kitty on 12 Sep 2016 03:51

Where is simulate game prep activities at? I do not see that anywhere. Thanks!

By qwxx on 15 Sep 2016 03:35

I too cannot see where game prep activities is located.

By Skycaptin5 on 16 Sep 2016 02:57

Worked perfectly. All Achievements had popped by Super Bowl Week 2020. Thanks

By Rogue 3k on 26 Sep 2016 22:04

So I have ea access can I do the trial and still get achievements

By Mind3838 on 04 Oct 2016 15:24

I ain't getting anything. I don't know if I have to do it a few times or if I'm doing something wrong. The coach entered the Hall of Fame and I've sim 30 years already.

By DrewAsDFRAG on 18 Oct 2016 04:00

Got mine Superbowl week 2020. Thanks

By Get Lit By Rick on 24 Dec 2016 17:03

Great solution took about 20 minutes !

By eeysi on 27 Feb 2017 23:46

now i restart a third time and get 35 000 legacy score but no achievement still misss 6 achievement i delete save , retry nothing... now i try delete entire game and will try again

By ObscureMindways on 08 Mar 2017 01:04

Awesome guide. The step by step was great. Got it around the same time. Like 4 minutes of simming for all the achievements. Thanks!

By prokop on 04 Jun 2017 23:15

It's silly but make sure that you have created your own coach. I was silly and used an existing one.

By Mat The Maniac2 on 19 Jul 2017 12:53

I downloaded the Billz99 but how do I make the rosters change? I go to Franchise to the Bills and they're still 81 OVR.

By PR0MOTE on 31 Jul 2017 19:31

Why does it have to be cloud? Does it not work if it's offline? I got the mariota one but nothing else and I was well over 25k legacy score

By Fearfuljgantt on 10 Sep 2017 04:43

This doesn't work for me. There is no 'simulate game prep activities' option for me anywhere, so is that what the problem is? Just simulated to year 2035 and haven't gotten any achievement past the 1,000 legacy score.

And evidently my coach only has 329 legacy after 10 fucking years. This makes no sense.

By MAST3R SHAKE04 on 13 Oct 2017 22:13

got it no problem in the 2020 Super Bowl week, thanks! also I didn't have 'simulate game prep activities' setting, but it obviously didn't make a difference!

By kabobles on 22 Feb 2018 16:33

I'm in year 2021, my coach has a legacy of 104.

By WillB636 on 12 May 2019 01:39

For what it's worth, this method still works, you just need to select Offline instead of Cloud when starting a new franchise! Also, since the servers are offline, you may get a few error notices while trying to navigate to the roster to download. I just kept at it and eventually was able to grab the roster noted in the guide.

By Anghellic Karma on 22 Jan 2021 18:06

Perfect guide. Worked like a dream. Got all achievements leading up to this one regarding legacy. Popped superbowl 2020.

By BigSalad87 on 09 Apr 2021 14:54

60k+ xp for my coach but I can't get past 21400 legacy points. Deleted it restarted it an couldn't get past 21000. I simmed it all was at 2022 still nothing. Everything else unlocked just not the 25k one. Any ideas?

By SizzlingGore on 06 Feb 2017 23:58

i only get 4 achievement in 7 season with a 16-0 each 7 season and 7 super bowl win why i only got 3000 legacy score

Here's how I did it and you don't need to download a special roster:

1: Create your Franchise ~~(can be online or offline)~~ with any team.
2: Set difficulty to All-Madden and make sure the CPU does all the roster moves.
3: Turn off coach settings as well.
4: Now change role- Coach, new coach, pick the style you want, accept & continue.
5: Sim the preseason.
6: Go to league schedules and press

to do force win. Select home if your team is playing at home (vs.) and away if your team is on the road (@). Do this for all your games.
NOTE: Away is on the left and Home is on the right
7: Do the same for each playoff game/Super Bowl).
8: Sim offseason letting the CPU do the work
9: Rinse and repeat steps 5-8 until you have all the achievements.

You can also get the following achievements can the same way:

The Marcus Mariota Legacy Award achievement in Madden NFL 17 worth 16 pointsUsing a created player, coach, or owner - surpass a legacy score of 40.

The Devonta Freeman Legacy Award achievement in Madden NFL 17 worth 19 pointsUsing a created player, coach, or owner - surpass a legacy score of 400.

Still working... Great guide

By lordwalker on 20 Feb 2017 20:13

Yeah, it may a little take longer to do but at least you're not left wondering if you'll keep winning if your front office makes crap decisions.

I tried a solution in Madden 16 and it didn't work so I came up with this one for that game and copy/pasted it here, obviously replacing the links to correspond to the correct game.

By Apostle92627 on 21 Feb 2017 09:41

This is a great solution. It also helps to stat max the relevant attributes for your starters, that tends to help you sim into the playoffs without a problem.

By Squandiddly on 12 Nov 2017 22:00

Since this seems to be the only solution that doesn't take hundreds of hours, how many years should this take? I did 20 seasons and got to 3650. The major legacy milestones for winning Super Bowls stop after 5 and each afterwards only gives 50 legacy. Am I missing something?

EDIT: I must have done something wrong the first time. Did it in 5 seasons, which took 20 mins. Liked. Thanks!

By Bill McCord on 18 Mar 2024 23:31

Yeah, that makes no sense. Are you sure you set it to All Madden?

This is the same method that has been used multiple times since Madden introduced the option to sim by ten years at a time. I take no credit for this method, I am simply putting it here for the latest version of the game!

Step 1: From the main menu of the game, go right to Customize then hit Share and Manage Files and then Download Community Files.

Step 2: Download the roster named MEASYTROPHIES. You can find it by searching via name or sorting by most downloads at the top. (It's one of the top 15 rosters). Full credit goes to the original creator for the roster.

Step 3: Load the roster you just downloaded via Share and Manage Files and then Load and Delete Files. so it's your active roster (You can check it's the correct one by making sure all the 49er players have 99 overall.

Step 4: Start a new CLOUD BASED franchise and use active roster. Pick the San Francisco 49ers as your team. The top three players should have 99 overall.

Step 5: Create a new coach, and use team builder. What he looks like and his name does not matter. Starting point doesn't matter either (I used regular season).

Step 6: For franchise settings make sure it's on All-Madden difficulty, turn the salary cap OFF and TURN ON all of the User Help Settings (Fill roster, sign free agents, progress players and re-sign players).

Step 7: Start the franchise up. On the first screen after it loads pick Advance Week and set it to simulate by ten years.

Step 8: The trophies will start to pop up as it simulates, once the Tom Brady one pops up, you can cancel simulation and exit out. You now have all the legacy trophies! The simulation might take a little while, so be prepared to wait.

All in all this method takes about 20-40 minutes in total.

Download a 99 rated roster from the Community section. There are many options like Seahawks, Bills, etc... to choose from. Make sure you load that roster after you d/l it.

Start a new career as a coach (team builder style). Change the skill level to All-Madden, and salary cap to off. Towards the bottom of the menu make sure Re-sign players, Fill Roster, progress players, sign off season free agents, and simulate game prep activities are all set to on.

Simply start your season and simulate for ten years! All the legacy awards will pop within several years!

Firstly, you want to download a 99 rated roster from the community. From the main menu go to Share and Download Community Files. Scroll right to Roster and then sort them (

) by # of likes. ULTIMATEPACK should be top which contains 99 rated starters for the Packers. Download this and then go back one menu. Scroll right to Customize and then select Manage Files and Load and Delete Files. Scroll right to Roster and select ULTIMATE PACK and load it. Go back to the main menu and select Connected Franchise => Create Offline => Import Custom Roster. From here, start a new career as a coach (create new) and make him a Team Builder. Pick Packers as that's the 99 rated roster we just download/loaded.

In the settings menu, change the following:

Skill level – All-Madden
Salary Cap – Off
Re-Sign Players – On
Progress Players – On
Sign Off Season Free Agents – On
Simulate Game Prep Activities – On

Start the season and then simulate. You can either take it one season at a time or simulate 10 years, it's up to you. You should get all the legacy trophies within 4 – 5 years.

GLITCH WARNING – There have been reports of surpassing 25,000 legacy points but the trophy not unlocking. This was a common glitch in last year’s game as well. All you need to do to fix the problem is either to reboot and/or reinstall the game and try again.

All these trophies are very easy to get and will take you under 10 minutes to obtain. First, download my rosters "MEASYTROPHIES" from the share menu.

To find the rosters type in 'M-Easy' in the find online ID search or 'MEASYTROPHIES' in the keyword search.

After downloading, make sure you load the rosters from the load and delete files tab. You are going to be using the 49ers. Now follow these steps:

Go to the Franchise tab and choose cloud
Start a new Franchise and choose "Use Active Roster"

Leave the commissioner settings alone. Return to the league menu and select "advance week" and choose to simulate 10 years. You will go 16-0 and win the Super Bowl every year. Trophies will be popping up left and right. After the 2021 Super Bowl, you should have unlocked the Tom Brady Award and all the preceding trophies. If you somehow didn’t unlock all of the trophies yet just keep simulating until you do.
