The NFC West was a largely competitive division in 2024, as the Los Angeles Rams and the Seattle Seahawks fought over the division title. However, the San Francisco 49ers were shockingly not even close to the playoff picture after making the Super Bowl a year prior. As for the Arizona Cardinals, well, they continue to be stuck in a seemingly eternal state of “mid.”
In 2025, the NFC West should remain competitive, but almost every team has lost a major piece from their rosters in 2024. While these players were replaced, it remains to be seen just how the NFC West will stack up to the other three divisions in Madden 26. What could be the difference for every team in the division is a few, “make or break” players that allow their team to thrive or dwell at the basement of their conference.
