'Madden 21' Debuts Brand New "The Yard" Mode

We talked to Travis Kelce about Madden 21's new "The Yard" mode and how fans of the sports video game are going to experience this brand new feature.

The release of Madden 21 is under two weeks away, and as we get closer to launch day, the Madden team has officially announced the brand new "The Yard" mode, which will debut in this year's game. "The Yard" is essentially the next generation of Superstar KO, which debuted in Madden 20, and gives fans an entirely new way to play the legendary football game. As you can see from the trailer above, this is a full-blown backyard football experience, with backward passes, one-man rushes, a whole bunch of trick plays, and much more. It's essentially bringing everyone back to their childhood glory days of playing backyard football. Even better, you'll be able to fully customize your character and make them 100 percent your own in the game.

Do Trail Blazers have enough energy in tank to beat Grizzlies, challenge Lakers?

The Trail Blazers have given it everything they have to make the play-in. Can Damian Lillard and Co. keep the momentum going against the Grizzlies?

The shot by Caris LeVert bricked off the back of the rim. For the first time all night, the Portland Trail Blazers could finally exhale.

The Trail Blazers escaped with a 134-133 victory over the Brooklyn Nets on Thursday at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex. They (at least temporarily) secured the Western Conference’s eighth seed, ensuring an appearance in the league’s play-in tournament against the ninth-seeded Memphis Grizzlies beginning Saturday.

Not only could Portland (35-39) exhale in relief after the Nets guard missed a 22-foot jumper with .3 seconds remaining. They could also exhale in exhaustion.

As soon as the buzzer sounded, Portland showed its fatigue. Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard placed his hands on his knees.

“I was just tired,” Lillard said

And why wouldn’t he? The Blazers went 6-2 during the season restart in a two-week span. Lillard had just posted 42 points after spending the week carrying the Blazers in wins over Philadelphia (scoring 51 points) and Dallas (scoring 61).

The fatigue did not just apply to Lillard.
