How to unlock the Tom Brady Legacy Award achievement in Madden NFL 18 - Definitive Guide

Though I like the solution provided before me, there is a faster way, and it is what we have been doing for many Madden's now.

-Go to download community files and jump to the rosters tab
-Sort it by DL's
-There is currently one titled 99Cowboys (created by the user "Tyko" not me), this has every player on the roster 99 all stats.
-Download that roster, and then be sure to go and load it as your active roster
-To load the roster, go to the "Customize" tab on the main menu. Select "Share & Manage Files", then select "Load & Delete Files", jump to the roster tab, and Press cn_A on the created roster
-Select a new cloud franchise
-Use a custom roster, not the active NFL roster, and select the Cowboys. You should notice some players you might not have heard of will be the 3 listed, all at 99 overall, that's what you want to see here.
-Go to create coach, I chose to make a motivator, though that really isn't going to matter
-Go to settings, and turn it onto All Madden, salary cap off, injury and pre-existing injury both -off, and then make sure that under "User Team Help", just move that over to "Simple". That should set all of the sliders to Auto, which is what we want them to be.
-Start at the regular season, and then select SIM 10 YEARS.
-For me, the achievement popped at the end of 2021, I believe. Took about 5 minutes and I didn't have to touch anything after I elected to simulate.

Congrats! You just got all of your legacy achievements. (: Roughly 250 gamerscore, in 10 achievements.

EDIT: There have been multiple reports of people not getting any of the achievements, though they are winning all of their games, and sometimes, even getting legacy points. The best thing i can tell you (at this time), is to start over. Make sure you loaded the roster (Details are on the 5th mark on the guide) and then triple check the settings. It's an apparent bug with the game that I would anticipate will be fixed shortly, but who knows. That has worked for some, but not all. For those that have reached out to me, I hope we have found you a solution, for those of you who haven't got it yet, message me on XBL and I'll try and walk you through it personally. Best of luck to you all!!

In response to M0j0, double check that all of the players on the roster are 99 everything, and be sure that the difficulty is on all madden. This will help you gather the most legacy per win/winning season/undefeated season, etc. If you're in season 12, what is your legacy currently at? I am sorry for the issues you seem to have run into, but I will do my best to get them resolved for you!

Tyko, it's awesome you're on the site, and thanks for the roster! Like I said, took me maybe 5 minutes, you rule!

@AddisonsDisease oddly enough, I was walking my friend through it last night, and he went 160-0, and only had 3,000 legacy. Honestly, just give it another go. He went back, we triple checked all of the settings, and it didn't seem like we missed anything. He ran through it again, and had no issues. Inconvenient, but it doesn't seem to have any rhyme to the reason, sadly. Fortunately, it's a very quick achievement.

Again, as I said, there have been some reports of it not popping correctly, just try it again, triple check the settings, and everything should be sorted out. If not, send me a message on here or on XBL and we can troubleshoot it. (:

I created an owner, I reached 26,750 legacy (this happened twice) and it kicks my owner off the team and forces me to retire. Am I doing something wrong? It's in cloud franchise, and I was very careful, even simming week by week in the final season before it makes me retire. Any fix for this?

I can't access the Download Community Files tile. Instead of that, I have a tile for MUT Rewards, even though I've already signed up for it. Is there a way around this?

These were not popping for me either. I tried 3 times and nothing worked. Then I tried using a custom coach and they seemed to work that way. Not sure if its a minor glitch in the game

I know it sounds stupid, but mine didn't work even though I thought I did everything correctly. Then I realized, I didn't pick the Cowboys. Just an FYI for anyone who is still having problems, make sure to select the Cowboys as your team. Thanks for the solution and Tyko for the roster!

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 team schedules and press cn_A 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.
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:

Madden NFL 18Carson Wentz Legacy AwardThe Carson Wentz Legacy Award achievement in Madden NFL 18 worth 17 pointsUsing a created player, coach, or owner - surpass a legacy score of 50.

Im sure you can do an offline Franchise create a custom coach and set Salary Cap to OFF then select multiple coaches as user players as well and trade all good players (plus picks) to your created coach then SIM 10 years and let it go. Ive done something like this the last 2-3 with a custom 99 roster that comes out after the release of the game.

I unlocked the first four achievements and then nothing happened afterwards. I wasn't able to unlock it by simming the achievements on the created roster either.

Simmed first season, 16-0...missed first playoff game by accident. 0 achievements despite over 2200 legacy points. Should have had four cheevos. Will play around with different ways of doing this to see if I can get it to pop somehow.

**edit** I'm an idiot with no reading comprehension skills. I was using the normal coach for my team and not a custom coach, despite this guide AND the actual description of the cheevo. As a further note, double check that the difficulty is on ALL MADDEN. I was on Rookie for the first 2.5 seasons before I realized the cheevos were coming in slowly. I went 15 undefeated seasons on ALL MADDEN and barely broke 20,000 legacy score, so I simply restarted to get the last cheevo.

For those that are wondering how many seasons it may take, it took me 5 seasons to unlock everything, as a created coach on All Madden. Five 16-0 seasons, five coach of the year awards, and five Super Bowl wins.

@Damien583 how many legacy points do you have?

@Lord Taylor XII I didn't even worry about the salary cap or using multiple teams. I just played as the Packers with the roster that came in the game. Just do force wins. If you're at home (vs), force a home win. If you're away (@), force an away win. When I did it I had one playoff loss because I forgot to do a force win my first season.

The reason I do it this way is because a couple years ago I tried it with a created roster and it didn't work. But then when I discovered you can force wins, I tried that and it worked perfectly.

All these trophies are very easy to get and will take you under 10 minutes to obtain, if you download my roster,"MEASYTROPHIES", from the share menu. To download it, go to the "Customize" tab in the main menu and select "Share and Manage Files." From here select "download community files." Press to search files. To find the rosters type in 'M-Easy' in the find online ID search or 'MEASYTROPHIES' in the keyword search. Or you could simply sort by most liked files and mine should be on the top.

After downloading it, make sure you load the rosters from the "Load and Delete files" tab. You are going to be using the Raiders. Now follow these steps:

  • Go to the Franchise tab and choose cloud
  • Start a new Franchise and choose "Use Active Roster"
  • Create a Coach and make him a "Team Builder" (Last tab)

Once in the league menu go to league settings and follow the below instructions:

  • Difficulty: All Madden
  • Game Speed: Normal
  • League Type: All
  • Instant Starter: On
  • Trade Deadline: On
  • Coach Firing: Off
  • Trade Type: Disabled
  • Salary Cap: Off
  • Relocation Settings: Disabled
  • Injuries: Off
  • Pre Existing Injury: Off
  • Practice Squad Stealing: Off
  • Player Progression Frequency: Weekly

Clock Management

  • Quarter Length: 6 Minutes
  • Accelerated Clock: On
  • Minimum Play Clock Time: 20
  • Ignore the team settings. You will not be playing the games.

User Team Help

  • Fill Roster: On
  • Re-Sign Players: On
  • Progress Players: On
  • Sign Off-season Free Agents: On

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. See the following video if you need assistance: LINK

Same concept as in previous years. Easily simmed within minutes.

Go to download community files and jump to the rosters tab

-Sort it by DL's
-There is currently one titled 99Cowboys that has every player on the roster 99 all stats.
-Download that roster, and then be sure to go and load it as your active roster in the settings
-To load the roster, go to the "Customize" tab on the main menu. Select "Share & Manage Files", then select "Load & Delete Files", jump to the roster tab, and Press cn_A on the created roster
-Select a new cloud franchise
-Use a custom roster, not the active NFL roster, and select the Cowboys. You should notice some players you might not have heard of will be the 3 listed, all at 99 overall, that's what you want to see here.
-Go to create a new coach
-Go to settings, and turn it onto All Madden, salary cap off, injury and pre-existing injury both -off, and then make sure that under "User Team Help", just move that over to "Simple". That should set all of the sliders to Auto, which is what we want them to be.
-Start at the regular season, and then select SIM 10 YEARS.
