It's pretty shitty that you can't change a players position, I want to use David Nelson as a TE/Flex receiver but it will always show up as WR. Figure people may think it's cheap put a WR even though he's not a burner.

Actually have a formation where I can use a WR as an on the line wing. Also have a WR in the backfield. As is I'm not utilizing Nelson enough.

Feels like the games go by really fast.

I wish there were more formation subs. In the game against Dallas, Seattle huddled up with 3 TEs. Much like in Madden, the Cowboys assumed it was that Ace 3 TE formation. Instead the Seahawks came out and spread the field like they had 5 WR. The Cowboys were caught off guard and it worked for a big play.

Could you imagine the rage this formation would cause:

Rice in the slot against a LBer! That's bull shit!

Then they had the gall to do it again! Cheating Pete!

Not anymore. They re-rate them for CCM. You can't put him out there because it lowers his ratings substantially. And it's not just his OVR or AWR. It's the important attributes like catch, route running, etc. In real life, the Raiders put him out wide, as TE, and HB. Not in CCM!

I'm ok with people switching their players around within reason.

I probably will, going to need a load of help next week.

blue, there are formations just like you described. came out last week in 11 personnel, but it was 5 wide with the te flexed, spiller in the slot. think it went for a touchdown to Spiller.

You can do a lot of subbing in game, not sure if the rating hit actually matters. Don't think it does.

lol!!

I mean it's unfortunate because every game's final score is at least a td or two... but throughout the game I play really close. I was leading Smokey by 2 with 3 minutes left in the 4th... but then Helu gets rocked and fumbles. Then one of his LINEMEN picks up the ball after diving on it... not being touched... and he returns it for a 40 yard touchdown... a DLINEMEN!! Then the following possession I throw a pick which ends up as a touchdown.

boooooo

Within reason is cool. What started the whole outcry was Shawn lining TO up at TE, at the time TO was a superstar WR.

my point proven again. all weekend to play and some games still don't get done. wednesday/sunday advances would change nothing

It's the only way I know to counter the late times from playing Worst Coasters, just try and get them on the weekends. Luckily I have all Beast Coasters in the next few weeks.

My XBL is back up so Ph33nix and I are going to try to get our game in tonight. If we can't make it by the deadline, then do what must be done.

We have to play 1st...unless I'm reading the schedule wrong. I'll be around after the Packer game...assuming xbl is back up.

I'm dumb, is it up? If not, I'll be home all day tomorrow so we can push it to the limit before I have to get humiliated by the Saints AI

Yeah, I was able to sign on a few minutes ago, so we should be able play after the game. I wouldn't be able to play during the day tomorrow anyway.
