Agreed. Did you pick Team Builder for your coach? It doubles your scouting XP from 1000 to 2000. I don't know what I would have done without it.

Nah bro, I picked what I am, strategist. Ended up just spending the points on XP boosters for players.

The only thing that sucks is I can't change my offensive style from Spread to anything else. I think the last type of offensive I use is Spread. -_-

pretty sure it's a permanent upgrade though.

Yeah it probably is.

I think all of us get a 25k XP bonus for making the playoffs. My intention is to get my (terrible) team good enough that I can make a good run at it. I have some guys I can build with that are making plays and turning into my type of players. My MLB and ROLB for example are turning more and more into exactly the guys that I want at that position when I look for talent and they're already locked up cheap long term.

These stats really don't mean anything if you try to compare them to the league. We're averaging probably a third of the plays of an NFL game and probably hitting like 80% of the passing attempts? If we played 15 minute quarters everyone would probably have like 200 passing attempts per game.

So what you're saying is "there are more interceptions per pass attempt by an order of magnitude, league-learn-to-pass"

eznark my schedule still sucks, what's your week like? Are you up all night changing diapers yet or anything?

No idea on int rate, what im saying is that we pass a fck ton if you adjust numbers for game lenght.

I'm out of town Thursday night but other than that I can play whenever works. If we could possibly start before midnight that would be rad.

Are you in the part of Indiana that is Central or Eastern?

Tomorrow night would work best for em this week, and then we're done for the week and can just play Borderlands

Indeed, that is the best part of getting our Madden games out of the way. We can hop back into Borderlands.

I really should do some of that coaching XP stuff one of these weeks.

Going through some stats, look at these RZ defensive numbers:

Eagles - 7 D Attempts, 1 TD allowed, 0 FGs
Colts - 7 D Attempts, 1 TD allowed, 0 FGs
Seahawks - 8 D Attempts, 1 TD Allowed, 4 FGs.
Packers - 7 D Attempts, 2 TDs allowed, 4 FGs.

That's highly impressive.

When we actually played, blue max only made it into the red zone once. Domination!

When the game wants me to renegotiate with a player who is under contract for the next 4 years, are they trying to get me to sign him for less?

I should have chosen this or strategist. I didn't know what each did, so I just chose the default one that had Madden's name dropped in it. :(

Hey, someone teach me how to play defense. I have like the most offensive yards or close to the most but I keep losing because I am god awful on defense. I haven't been using ask madden either, so I can't blame it on him anymore!

mmHmm an excuse when you saw first hand that it wasn't working. it took you going into the paint every time and hot spot abuse to finally defeat me, and even then it was with the skank mavs! the youngry rockets ate you alive whenever we played

I want to believe 2k13 will not let us down. Its been so long since we had a league :'(

Control your defensive linemen and press down on the right stick immediately at the snap.

User DL play. Guaranteed instant pressure on passing plays.

Take advice from me. I should know. I've given up the most points on defense and probably the most yards. I have the worst ranked defense stats wise!
