GG Shane. Today I learned how OT works, and it was a hard lesson...It'll take a couple days for me to get over the stupidity I pulled of at the end of that one. I also think we've sent the high water mark for total interceptions in a game, so we have that going for us.

Did you McNabb and think it was going to go into double overtime?

I don't know what I did. I wasn't sure what was going to happen when time ran out I thought there might be two halves for OT or something, lost track of time. The game ended 17-17 with me on 3rd down on like the 2 yard line. I'd be even angrier if I thought I deserved the win.

And why would I want them?

Jarate dude kick ass job on those recaps! I love reading through those.
I wish I could do a nice summary of the game, but Each doesn't even have scoring plays on games you don't control :|

So I make due with what I got, it helps a lot anyway to study up on your opponent's tendencies and gamelan from there. I'd suggest everyone should look at the stats of games

Very valid point. Also some people should pay attention to some of the Twitch streams that league members are streaming. Not only for gameplanning purposes but also ways to improve your overall game as well.
 
Bucs get their first win of the season against the Falcons. Head coach Thomas Anderson told reporters he's pleased with todays results, citing the lack of turnovers as a huge factor in today's victory. The Bucs look to build on this momentum next week as their No 3 ranked defense take on the Steelers.

god the playcalling screen is a big issue of mine. I select the wrong play way more often then I normally do in Maddens.

Yeah, it's annoying enough because if you mash X to skip the scenes in between plays, you accidentally pick a play... but if you're in a punt/FG situation, X is always a fake. Of course, that's only if you have it set up as Triangle on top, Square middle, X bottom, but I think that's the default. (and makes the most sense based on the controller layout).

It's even worse with the lag (which happens in singleplayer!).

Sorry about that game Thomas, head wasn't in the right place - I played even worse than I ever thought I was capable of. Yikes. Looks like the leagues whipping boys have been discovered.

I think things are gonna turn around for some of us. I lost my 1st two games and won my last. I kinda feel like I'm getting my bearings finally though. Hopefully that'll lead to some wins.

Neither of us played very well! I can't be throwing 4 ints and getting so many sacks if I wanna make the playoffs!
Bills need to go back to losing Super Bowls!

Bears @ Jets

Player of the Game;

LE Lamarr Houston had an excellent week as his defense allowed the Bears to win after a pathetic offensive performance. His 3 tackles, sack and fumble return for a touchdown was a much needed score for the Bears.

Interesting Notes;

The Bears got out-gained by over 100 yards and still won

The Bears only managed 7 rushing yards

The Jets 3 turnovers were their undoing

The Bears did win their TOP battle

There were 9 total sacks in this game

Matt Flynn has played decently for the Jets, he threw for 284 yards and a touchdown, but was sacked 5 times in the loss

Jay Cutler is lucky to still be undefeated, he threw for 171 yards, no td's and 1 in t for a QB rating of 67.7. Look for him to improve against a dreadful Packers defense next week

Matt Forte had 13 carries for 7 yards. This gives him a YPC of .5 yards, although he did score the Bears only offensive touchdown

7 different receivers caught passes for the the Jets and 6 different recievers caught passes for the Bears.

Ryan Mathews had 11 carries for 18 yards, giving him a total ypc of 1.6

Nobody had a pancake in the entire game

There were 16 TFL in this game total

Ravens @ Browns

Player of the Game;

RB Eddie Lacy, despite struggling with the Packers, and being the 2nd Alabama running back to be traded for a 1st rounder the following year after being traded, Lacy had a monster game for the Browns and provided a spark they needed all year on offense., His 15 carries for 118 yards are impressive, but his 3 touchdowns really helped the Browns gain a huge win.

Power Rankings

1. New England Patriots - Scoring the third most points and giving up the least amount of points in the league will lead you to the top spot. Although the competition hasn't been there, The Patriots have shown themselves to be the most dominant team in the league.

2. Denver Broncos - Denver has also been absolutely dominant in their 3 wins, other then a first week OT win against the Colts. This team is hungry to prove that they can win another Super Bowl for Peyton Manning

3. Green Bay Packers - Once again, their Defense shows that they can be beat, but their offense is absolutely dominant. They are averaging over 40 points per game and have scored 30 more points then the next highest team. If their defense can sure up, they can be a Super Bowl Contender

4. Arizona Cardinals - The Cardinals vaunted defense hasn't been the best, but they're unvaunted Offense has been spectacular. If the Cardinals can get back to where they were last year on defense, look to them to dominate

5. New orleans Saints - Drew Brees and their offense has been good, but their defense is stepping up big time. The Saints have the chance to be absolutely incredible this year if their defense holds up

6. St Louis Rams - Many had questions whether BJ Daniels was good enough to run this offense, but Daniels has been nothing short of incredible. The Rams have proven that they are not only contenders, but could compete with the best teams in the league

7. Washington Crackers - The Redskins have shown that their year last year was merely a fluke due to RGIII missing his preseason. Their running game has been absolutely Efficient

8. Chicago Bears - A mark of a great team is the ability to win close games, and while the Bears have not been impressive, their team has won every game. They have a game against the Packers next week, and we'll see whether the Bears are real or not

9. Tennessee Titans - After struggling in their first game, the Titans have been an offensive juggernaut. Jake Locker might be convincing people that's he's the MVP of the season

10. Pittsburgh Steelers - It's not often you see a team win so big over a dominant defense, but the Steelers proved they may belong in the "elite" category

11 New York Giants - Their dominant d-line might be coming back after a 10 sack performance against the Texans. This Giants team has only lost to the 3-0 Cardinals.

11. Baltimore Ravens - Despite losing a close game against the Browns, the Ravens have been having a good year and could easily be the team to beat in the AFC North

13. Buffalo Bills - The Bills have been a great surprise, although they have had issues with turnovers, their 2-1 record might mean that they are ready to take the AFC wild card spot

14. Carolina Panthers - Despite 2 dominating wins their first 2 games, their 49-7 loss to the Steelers is a weird site for such a good defense. If the Panthers can rebound from this, they might compete with the Saints in the NFC South

15. Kansas City Chiefs - The Chiefs have been incredibly disappointing this year compared to last year, but their tie, although silly, might give them some momentum going forward

16. Cleveland Browns - The Browns absolutely stunned a Ravens team that looked like to be the class of the NFL. Eddie Lacy might provide the offensive spark needed for the browns to truly become a contender

17. The Colts are an enigma. Their offense has had no issue scoring, scoring the 4th most points in the league, but their defense is horrendous. If they can make their defense play better, this team could be dangerous

18. Jacksonville Jaguars - The Jaguars seemed like they would continue with their losing ways, but a stunning victory on Sunday gave them a massive confidence boost and finally showed that their offense could compete.

19. Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Despite losing two games, the Buccaneers need to look at the season so far as a success. They should hope to continue their winning ways next week

20. Dallas Cowboys - The Cowboys were supposed to have the worst defense in the league, but by and large it has played decently this year. Tony Romo needs to step up his game this season though.

21. Cincinnati Bengals - Andy Dalton needed this year to be the year where he proves he's elite, but unfortunately, he's lead his team to a 1-2 performance and has had some stinker games

22. Houston Texans - The Texans offense got absolutely stammered by the Giants pash rush. Hopefully they'll be able to fix their o-line issues and put together a good season

23. Seattle Seahawks - What could be the biggest disappointment of the year, the Seahawks need to show why they won the Super Bowl last year. They have the talent, but do they have the swagger?

24. Philadelphia Eagles- Philly thought Nick Foles would be the answer to their QB Woes, but he's been showing to be ineffective this year. If their offense can play like they did last year, the Eagles might become a contender.

25. Oakland Raiders - Oakland had probably the worst offensive performance ever recorded, but the sheer fact that they have a win has been a surprise to many. Hopefully their offense can step it up

26. Detroit lions - The Lions should've won last week, but the loss of Mathew Stafford has hurt them, and their defense has hurt them more. This team is by far the most dangerous of the teams who haven't won

27. Miami Dolphins - The loss of Ryan Tannenhill has been a real shocker for this Dolphins squad. They need to play much better offense to get their first victory

28. New York Jets - The teams without a win have been marred without their starting QBs. Matt Flynn has played well in 2 games, but, He needs to move his offense better

29. San Fransisco 49ers - Quite possibly also the biggest disappointment, the 49ers have been turning the ball over like and and have been playing awful offense.

30. San Diego Chargers - The performance of Phillip Rivers this years has been laughable. The Chargers are still a dangerous team, but can Rivers play competently?

31. Minnesota Vikings - Adrian Peterson was a lone bright spot on the roster last week, but I as long with other believe that the time to start Teddy Bridgewater is now

32. Atlanta Falcons - Through 3 games the Falcons have scored 24 points. Is it time to say goodbye to Matty Ice in Atlanta?

Myself and fixed just finished our week 4 game. I don't think I have ever played with a worse offense than this years Raiders in Madden ever. You know your offense sucks when Matt Shaub comes off the bench and provides a spark.

Oh well. Good game fixed. Let's hope my defense can get healthy in the bye week cause lord knows I am going to need them!

Thought I lost my second QB in as many weeks. Went down with a dislocated shoulder after my first drive and was out for the rest of the game. I'm assuming that if he's not showing in the injury section he'll somehow make a miraculous recovery and be ready for my next game?

GG, you beat me in just about every category except for the final score and turnovers, more first downs, more rushing, more passing, more ToP, etc. Could have been a much different game without all the INTs.

It's why I changed out Carr for Shaub. Could some of my decisions been better? Of course, but there are 2 INT's where Carr didn't throw the ball anywhere near where I wanted him to. Sometimes the ratings being so important in this years Madden really sucks! LOL! I hope we all stick together so I can try to build the team in the offseason!
 
The Bucs are looking to trade for a mobile QB. Make an offer. No drafts picks involved.
Where is the free agent listing in connected careers? Couldn't find it.
