And holy shit, the Patriots are the Bo Jackson of this game. Just trying a game as them, and in no time at all, I've got 500 yards passing and 5 TD passes....

Just lob it deep
:lol Told you! "CHEEEEESE!!!" is back!
 
guys relax, there are a few people in the league with RROD. be patient, they will play in due time. remember, the league advancement is always only a few days away!

I played an offline game against CPU Pats and had the same experience. Overall I held them in check, but they scored I think three TDs on pass plays that wound up breaking long. They weren't even that deep... their receivers are just that fast.

And online or off, my pass protection is pretty brutal. Four sacks guaranteed if you play me! :)

Yeah, I posted a while back about my experience playing AS the Pats and still thinking they are way overpowered. I remember sitting there and watching a crazy ass play and going "that's absolute bullshit!" then realizing it was bullshit in my favor! :lol

dang my bye week is next week. that sucks... i'm ready to take on CK now! the battle rages on old friend!

This is going to be a game for the ages. I will need to fight hard to stay with the NFC East pack after I lose to Truelize.

What do you mean 2 games left, still 5!

Oh, and F YOU for the picture with your article.

CP has been busy with school/work and has not been able to play his game. He and I are communicating and will get it done ASAP. Sorry if we are delaying anything.

As an example, I threw the ball up 7 or 8 times DEEEEP to both Stallworth and Moss. Think I completed 5 or 6 of them. All 60 yards + Stallworth would just run past people and catch it. Moss would outrun them, or proceed to jump 18 feet in the air and catch it with his taint.

Basically, if you play against them, KEEP YOUR SAFETIES DEEP. You bring them up towards the line, and the Pat's throw deep. TD.
 
i played jube as the pack once i think i lost 42-28 or 35-24 or something. i didn't get burned deep much cause i kept my 2 deep, but i could not keep up with moss on PA drags or slants, he's too fast. i'm confident if i play them again i can manufacture a win somehow :D

So, once again wasting time at work (Oy..)

Reconfigured list. 3 pts for tackle, 5 points for tfl, 7 points for sack, 12 points for every INT or FR, 3 points for a pass deflection, 6 points for FF, 15 points for a DTD, and I throw in .01 point per INT yard (hey, that much less yardage the offense needs to do) But still using the data from yesterday...

He's never around during the days (at least I don't think so) Malley. I think you'll find him around on AIM past 8-9 pm

Lonestar: that's awesome that you're doing that. If I had one thing to say it'd be that every sack = 1 tfl so that means that sacks are really worth 12 points. Not that big of a balance issue but it's something to consider if you haven't already.

Yeah, I understand that. But looking at the stats, and this could be wrong. I see some players that have more sacks than TFL, and I'm sitting here thinking that the Madden in game stats, doen't count the 2 as the same. BUT, sitting here thinking, I'm sure that TKL and Tackle are the same, so I'm going to lower TKL to say, 2 points (that way it's 3 per tackle+2 per TKL, to get my original 5 point TKL.)

I agree, this should bump mark andrson to the top spot.

Hmm. Maybe I'm wrong. I haven't tested out that theory of every sack being a tackle for loss. Maybe Mark Anderson for the Bears was equally stopping RBs behind the LOS as well as sacking the QB. I'm sure it's easy to test I just can't right now.

I went and revised it. Seems every sack isn't listed as a TKL as well. But every Sack is a Tackle. So I lowered Sack to 5 points, so that it, plus the tackle, is 8 points. Guess I could lower INT's and FR down from 12 to 8-10. DTD's I could as well, but come on, if a defender can score a TD, that's big in real life as well as the game. See CK's first game against Shawn.

Still, remember, this is from yesterday when I grabbed the stats, and some people had 5 games played, most had 4, some less. Then in the case of me, my game against DM and FMT, I was on defense alot! I mean, I think DM had the ball for more than twice the time I did. Tatupu got alot more tackles in those kind of games. But going off "pure numbers" this is how it's coming out. A better look would be at the end of a week (if everyone has finished all their games) or at the end of the season.

Yeah, it'll be cool to check it out at midseason/the end of the season to see who the most effective players on D are.

Well, it's only 2 that can get done by the deadline. Still, I was mainly joking since it would be unfair to the people that will already have games to make up. I'm just anxious to get the bye over with. :(

Ok, well most of the team stats can be entered in. The touchdowns (4), rushing touchdowns, INTs, for example. I just took that from the player stats already in. I'm fixing that now for you. Also, there's no way Brady had 4 TDs on 2 passing attempts (OR IS THERE?!). The easy way to fix that? Check the number of receptions DCX entered (17). Good job DCX!

There is always a way to make the stats not look terribly unrealistic.

Nah what happened was that I entered the stats for game 2 (we finished the quarter in a new game). I didnt get the pics until a few hours later. Ill fix it now.

EDIT: i think someone fixed them already.
