Yup exactly. I wanna play this Cards-Saints game bad; biggest game of the season for me. Too bad I have to head out of town on business Wed-Fri so unless we advance Tuesday will have to be Friday late or Saturday any time. :/Wellington said:

:lol yeah gg that was pretty wild. i was kind of hoping i didn't win after all that cause it would have been bullshit.
i really need to draft some CB's. my cb's just aren't very good opposite nate. offense is fine but much like the real 49ers i can't run so i'm forced to pass, and sometimes mistakes will happen. i don't go through my progressions like i should and it gets me in trouble
well i pretty much have to finish a game better than the cards since i know EA will pull out some bullshit to give him the division again if we're tied!

So do I play the CPU or wait for a replacement on the Titans FMT?

somnia let me see what i can do. dont play it yet, i'll let you know asap
p.s. dcx i dont know what you were doing with your line, but there were times where there was NO ONE inside. im guessing you were fanning them out everytime, but sometimes i would see ALL your D move out. the one run i had i dont think ive seen that much open field in the 2 seasons we've been playing. another time that happened and i got predator tackled on a 4th and 2. i had the first easily and then the DE warps from behind me in superspeed to make the stop and somehow his me from behind and still knock me back (when physics says i should go forward)

You can't choke unless you have a lead, you never had a lead against me. You had bad luck, but you didn't choke. Unless you consider losing to me a choke in general, which I'm not sure why since I'm not
bj using the Texans
I was the one who almost choked, I was up two td's and let you back in the game both times we played.
Wait didn't you say you were going to win 5 straight... ok that's the choke job
GG Pheeniks.
AT ball? Aaron Rodgers, 2 for 2, 103 yards passing. 30 team rushing attempts.
The game's interception logic is so broken and quick to award them that this was somehow not an incomplete pass:

Even more annoying is that right after I user picked it I held down RB and the ball still popped out. Granted, I probably wouldn't be bitching about it had I recovered the fumble but instead it was a Dolphin TD on the next play.

Like I said, I wouldn't be complaining if it worked out well for me. In all honesty, I'm not even upset about it, as it didn't affect the outcome of the game at all. I just thought it would make for an interesting demonstration of yet another poor aspect of the Madden engine.

Yeah, that was my point. "...that this was somehow not an incomplete pass." If that was a WR attempting that catch on the ball instead of my safety, the game would have ruled it an incomplete pass. The only reason it was ruled a catch-fumble instead of an incomplete is because of my player was on defense and not offense, when it should obviously be called the same way regardless of the position of the player attempting it.
Not to start a fight, AT, but why did you only pass TWICE with Aaron Rodgers? This is such a confusing box score.
The funny thing is in those TWO passes you managed 103 yards..yet you never threw again?
You ran 32 times for only 136 yards. It wasn't like the run was working. I'm just confused.
Pheeniks didn't call foul, and I don't think you've done this in the past..I'm basically just wondering why you never wanted to pass after two passes for an average of 50+ yards.

My kick is terrible and I have a tendency to shank punts and kicks all the time, sigh. You tried to hand that game to me 3 times in the 4th and my offense just wouldn't oblige.
Stephens with another back breaking KRUMBLE and LeRon with another tide turning fumble.
I feel ill right now.

Actually I apologize I won't be able to do tonight. Sorry for the short notice/wasting your time. We'll have to get our game in some other night.Nightz said:

I came into the game planning to run the ball more I normally would after looking over Pheeniks' roster and seeing how poor his front seven were and the fact that I'm not passing nearly as well this season as I was last (12 INTs already, far too many for me). I had never planned to as much as I did, but I had no reason to switch things up the way it was going in the game. You say it was "only" 140 yards, but I ran it at a 4.66 YPC average for the entire game (I'm taking out two kneel downs by Rodgers that ended the game) and the yardage was consistent the entire time, to the point that my offense was stopped just a single time the entire game and I had no reason to change things up.
The high yardage per pass was just a result of Pheeniks having to load the box completely. Could I have gone to the pass more? I suppose, but I had no real reason to.
The crazy thing is that the time of possession was still basically even, 20:13 to 19:47.
Edit: Also, nice change to the commissioner's note.
Oh, I take back those words, then. :lol
The outside runs, really. Nothing bad Bird did, but I would take control of a LB, chase to contain his approach, he'll cut inside and my other LB and Safety would just take a bad, unnatural angle and against a speed guy, won't match up well at all.
