Does TT have anything left? Eagles still need secondary help big time.

Shit, I wouldn't mind the Panthers signing Thomas (he could get some advice/mentoring from Thomas Davis) and Wade Smith. Bound to be an upgrade over the backups we have at the moment.
 
No trolling, I'm actually surprised Carolina wasn't in that list. The FO projections seemed to really hate them when the book was published this year.

I've said all off-season that Miami will be the most surprisingly awful team. Glad science backs me up.

Defense is too good for the team to be outright assy ass. Even if they slip a bit from the offense not being to control the ball/clock as well, they are still going to be at worst, top 5 overall.

But yeah, everyone is down on the Panthers right now.

I'm just saying can't really use the hurt argument when both teams had key guys injured. Neither team was full strength going in.

lol.

Pats offense that game:

Edelman 15 targets
Vereen 8 targets
Collie 6 targets
Hooman 3 targets
Dobson 3 targets
Mulligan 1 target
Amendola 1 target
Slater 1 target

All-star lineup right there.

Not my fault your team can't field an offense that backups can shut down. If that is your offense, the problems are elsewhere.

RT @mortreport: Seahawks & Pete Carroll collectively fined over $300,000 by NFL for violation of off-season non-contact rules, per sources.

The @Seahawks also lose 2 minicamp practices after review of June 16 OTA practice was deemed unsuitable under CBA rules. Story on @ESPNNFL

You are right there were a lot of problems. Hopefully both teams remain healthy this year and the winner can represent the AFC better than last year. Both teams would have gotten slapped by the hawks.

Its always a better win/less crushing defeat when the competition is in optimal form.

As far as the Hawks, they came ready and the Broncos didn't.

If only snes were still around to explain it to them.

Way to go, Dragon.

Way to go me, I made snes be a complete asshole and ask to be banned and have to register under a false name in which I then outed him completely without malice and then was bitched at for it for years afterwards while he continues to be snarky on his twitter account about neogaf and this thread specifically.

Way to go me.

A lot hinges on the health of Jonathan Stewart. He can hide a lot of deficiencies along the offensive line with his aggressive running style and make the play action pass a real weapon, something we haven't had since 2011. Of course, that's like wishing for a unicorn at this point.

Well Madden 15 definitely looks much better than 25. I never bought 25 but played it with some friends on his X1 when he got it at launch. Nice visual upgrade and the models for the coaches/players look quite a bit better.

I was playing the Cowboys and took the Giants offense on a 9 play scoring drive with almost no resistance whatsoever on All Pro...

Difficulty needs up or realistic simulation of the Cowboys defense? You decide.

Phil Simms character model is the stuff of nightmares though. Yikes.

Saw the Mankins trade. I liked Wright in his rookie season (he and Glennon seemed to have a good connection) but we needed help at guard badly.

That doesn't even make sense bro! If I just assume for a second that your dumb argument about me and snes is correct (it isn't but let's assume) I snitched snes wayyyyy before Gata did any of his snitching. Believe me, no one deserves to be a disciple of Gata.

Been playing First Light, it's pretty damn good! The challenges actually seem challenging, and it has another platinum! Also downloading the NHL demo, I hope it's not just NHL 07 version 8.

You had my curiosity but now you have my attention!
Who they playing on Thursday? because that's the game Ill watch

Forty Niners but it is the 4th preseason game. No starters usually except the Niners are playing their starters a couple series.
 
How is the gameplay?

I literally played a quarter. Can't speak with any level of intelligence on it outside of saying that it feels like last years game with some nice nips and tucks for the interface (play selection, making audibles, line shifts, etc,) and I actually dig the defensive player cam and the little mini-game to get a good jump on the ball.

Downloaded and waiting for me. Also got the Metro Redux and still playing through Diablo 3 (on Act 3 in fact). Plenty to do before Destiny hits.

I'm getting in as much gaming as I can now before I start school in January. :jnc
