What is your offensive line rated?
We should form a pact to never throw the ball. I want to blast through so I can play Ni No Kuni and The Cave. Madden is work.
Not very highly. Their OVRs according to the site are 80, 75, 80, 83, 78. Bennett is a rather good blocking TE and I invested in a good FB in the first draft.
Are you available Wednesday? I can play pretty much anytime after 7:30pm EST.
Oh man, it looked like they were all high 90s. Almost all of my front 7 have a block shedding and power/finesse move of 85+ but last night they were getting man handled. Your cuts were killer too.
I don't think running the ball has anything to do with ratings, my line is like 85s across the board or higher and I can't run for dick. I'm fairly certain it's playbook related.
Possibly. I just think it's EA Sports crappy attribute system. They need to retool that next and actually give us descriptions like NHL.

This happens all the time, Idk why.
I wouldn't be so miffed if I wasn't always one of the top rushers in the league in years past. To go from a top 5 rushing team every season to basically completely abandoning the run game makes it impossible to have a shot against the best players in the league.
Az, what time you wanna play?

Maybe you didn't build your team the right way sir

Remember when I went like 8-0 in the GAF community before the season started last year all from tossing it to Bush + PA passes? It's because running out of twins in Madden12 is the easiest shit in the world.
You miss the part where I said my line was mid eighties across the board? lol
smh
I have the exact same playbook as last year, and run plays that worked wonderfully last year out of Ace, I, & Strong I are stuffed every single time this year.
Last year wasn't an anomaly, I have always been one of the best offensive players in the league, so my running woes really make no sense this year.
Sounds like a mediocre offensive line to me.

Fuck your BS strong I close run. Shit was a 20+ yard gain every damned time.
I should probably try QB Wrap and see how mediocre they truly are.
^ It's a negative gain every damned time this year!
Unlike you I stop running plays that are broken.
Up until last game I have gashed you with runs and my line isn't anything special.
Seems like karma for last year twinhead
I stopped too, but it isn't as funny, so people like to pretend I never stopped.
Smokey, which gives further evidence that it's the plays people run, and not the ratings of their line.
I just think your going through a madden crisis and you don't know how to cope with these feels
It was all so easy for you in m12
I think I'm gonna switch playbooks next season and see if anything changes.
lol, running had always been easy, let me see if I can dig something up...
I'm down.
You're lucky Smoke, looks like EA purged the 09 vids, I have one of Parker going straight up the gut for 70 yards on yo dumb ass.
in 22 carries Peters didn't fumble at all last night, it was great! Still lost the game
Did you have fun though? That's all that matters.
I did have fun running, but I didn't have fun on defense because Cam Newton would just walk past my spies and then my safety would just stand there and let a TE run right past him!
Okay invite me, please
Probably played with another overrated Steeler team. The cool thing about ccm is you can fix certain issues on your team (Wellie). The one year tiburon stopped giving you a default OP team the dream is gone!

I was going to mention that too. Last year's Rashard Mendenhall was insanely overrated, same probably with Willie Parker from year's passed.
I think that moreso this year than before your personnel for running the ball has to fit the play you're calling. I always like guards with high ACC and moderate SPD for pulling so I build for powers, counters, sweeps, and tosses. If you just have big dudes up front that don't move much focus on dives, isos, slams, and off-tackles.
yay I play CB3 next advance... AT and CB3 back to back. NFC East football.
Yeah! I'm 20 of those points...in 2 games

Hey, that makes you well above the average!
Hey, I plan on carrying that exhibition victory into CCM! If only I can do something on offense... and stop you on defense... and not give up 60 yard plays... and not throw more than 2 interceptions.
You know you all want to be me right now!
lol why?
GG Ram, you made me angry when you did a fake FG, just because Smokey went for it on fourth down in a questionable area doesn't mean you have to too!
I posted that right after you did the fake FG

lol, it's an exhibition, I was just wanting to try that playbook out, didn't like it. :|
I had no idea Nintendo was publishing it.
Also that INT I threw was stupid, Palmer threw the ball like it was a shot put or something.

I guess it was because dudes were too close to his arm but it was dumb!
