Yacobod, tomorrow will be a lot better for me. I have a lot of studying to do.

Yeah I can go right now if you want. Add me my tag is Wellie.Smokey Bones said:
GG Wellington but I'm really getting sick and tired of this game fucking me over the past few weeks. Ahmand Green was fucking wide open on that last play and would've had the 1st and more but fuck no Madden decides to let the fucking ball just hit him in his chest and bam game over.
wow
wow
The passing game has been pretty frustrating this year...more so than last year IMO. My main problem is that sometimes a receiver will make crazy, one-handed catches while jumping 10 feet in the air, while other times they just drop a pass that hits them in the numbers (like you mentioned). Or maybe it's a combination of that plus my suckage.Smokey Bones said:

It was 4th and 5 I'm down 13-17 to Wells, there's 14 seconds left on the clock and I'm his oh, 13 yrd line, I call a screen play he's wide the fuck open could've at least got the 5 and maybe even scored and it hits him in the chest and bounces to the ground. Sorry if I sound a little heated but it's been suckage for me the last few weeks, I've lost the last 3 games in a row by a combined amount of 10 points

Half-Back screens never work for me, the RB drops the ball 90% of the time. WR screens work, most cheesers online run that shit exclusively. They need to find a better balance next year. Screens are way to effective in NCAA, but almost worthless (outside of WR screens) on Madden.
Really? Wow, I cannot get WR screens for positive yards for the life of me. Actually, most of the time I throw a pick so I just don't run them. :lol It seems like if the D calls any kind of DB blitz, the DB is right there for the INT. Maybe I just suck at the timing. Last year, I could effectively run screens.LJ11 said:

Well it really depends on your roster. Part of being a decent players is knowing who to go to and when. The game is sometimes very infuriating with the picks that should not be, but by and large you just need to make sure that you put the ball in the right spot.

Sounds like you probably find yourself in too many 3rd and Californias.
:lol Usually not too bad...3rd-4 or 3rd-5 range. It (should be) definitely manageable.Slo said:
