is "andy reid clock management" code word for 5 screen plays?

but seriously, gg. I've regressed like 10 times over last season. I can't find an open receiver like ever. its all prayer balls or they go for like 2 yard passes.
not sure what the deal is, but i suck.
I gave up on even thinking I could win somewhere in the second quarter. Madden has broken my spirits, so I just switched to him calling most my plays.

It was me running out of time to get a FG :(

Those screens got me 16 points! But this league needs more salt anyways.

Learn how to defend off tackle runs coming out of a shotgun two back set. All game.

He also sets Bowe at TE and likes to run this quick out.

Oh, and screens.

There's been lots of no-nos with some new players, but I think most of us can't be bothered to care anymore. Manual blitzing LBs, manual WRs, etc. I don't think any of these rules are in the OP anyway.

ive played most of the new guys and haven't seen any issues but maybe i need to clarify anyways! i'll update the OP.

for the new guys:

1. No manual blitzing LB's on passing plays.
2. No moving WR's into the RB or TE slots.
3. No nano blitzing
4. No manually controlling the WR while the ball is in the air.

That's all I can think of! If you are doing any of the above then cease your ingress! the percolations are imminent!

I'm not sure what micro blitzing is but I don't do the others. I like playing on the Dline myself...which fucks me during a screen.

Actually I've noticed people playing on the line seem to be able to stop my screens most of the time. I'm not an expert at screens like Splat though!

If you play DE, you can blow up screens. It's harder this year because of the dumb physics, though. You can sniff out a screen from a mile away and still not punish it.

You totally outplayed me, and yeah you actually didn't run screens on me. That was more from what I took away from others that played you.

You're a tough out.

I just got gamers club at BB. There's 1 catch: it works on your first purchase, but then it's not active for 50 days according to the dude. So I got Infamous for the discounted price.

i got Thief on ps4 from gamefly. wow it is pretty bad. i usually have to temper against what neogaf said about a game (good or bad!) and take a bit to really decide. whether you want to or not, if you hear that a game is incredible or bad then you go into it expecting whatever you've heard. but this is pretty brutal. the framerate is pretty shitty but more than that the gameplay is boring. it's like a neutered version of dishonored

What? They didn't say anything about that when I bought mine today. Also says nothing like that in the Terms & Conditions on the BB website.

This wasn't mentioned to me. Nor is it on BB FAQ.

I'm pretty sure he didn't know what he was talking about. That doesn't even make sense...? If they were going to do something like that why allow you to use it one time and then make you wait almost 2 months to continue.

I'm not very good, but I can teach you some of the basics if you want. I'm not sure about the new mechanics as I haven't looked at the tutorial and it doesn't come with a manual anymore. :<

How do you direct a blocker? I saw DCX doing it, but I didn't know they brought that back.

Hoping he was full of it. He said something about it being a bundle deal for PS4 or some shit. I dunno. I'm not sure there are any non-pc releases coming up in that time anyway, but I'm sure as hell gonna test it if there are!

Well I guess I will find out when we play!

Although most of my losses have been because I've got Schaub Tannehill running the show
