1. Are you in Direct 3d mode? On certain video cards (ATI) Madden's Direct 3d is crazy/choppy/weird. Try turning on software mode instead of direct3d, it should be somewhere in that screen that pops up before the game loads with Madden saying "Hey! This is my game!"
I had problems with Madden 2k1 and direct3d, but everything works fine (though not as pretty) in software mode.

If this doesnt work, come back list you comp's stats for us.
