GG McNeily.....the following is not a but, has nothing to do with you played.
Game is trash and frustratingly so.
The new pass trajectories are pretty much fucking useless with lag online so the linebackers, yes even mine, make plays that they shouldn't on balls that are going to a receiver at least 5 yards behind them.
No way does Deangelo Hall make that pick in real life. Blackmon was completely uncovered and in real life, a qb would've just snapped and thrown it just like I did, no way the corner gets over there that quick. This again may have something to do with it being either a line drive pass or a sky's the limit lob and nothing in between.
Oh well, this is the shit we've been dealing with for years now, no reason to be surprised by it.

GG Story. That was a good game. That really sucks about those three redzone picks though. I mean my passing D was getting beat on the field... and then they decide to do some amazing, unheard of stuff in the end zone.
Running is such a pain right now. I get stopped everywhere. Then again the past two teams I have played have very good linebackers... but still, I can barely get two yards. I need to see if Watkins is worth it!
I'm really enjoying my run d though. I think I have 5-6 forced fumbles so far this year with quite a few sacks. My luck with fumbles is terrible on both sides of the ball. I can never pick them up.
Edit: Just saw your post and I wholeheartedly agree. The game is trash when it comes to the passing game. The first pick with Riley: I was there and was trying to "bait" a throw since that's what you have to do in this game rather than actually stay on the man and hit Y at the right time. The other 3 were complete garbage though. When you see a guy do some awkward jump like that, you know its complete bullshit. Hall and Henderson's especially. I really hope they fix that shit next year.
A few pages back, I rant all about the passing game. Ballhawking ruins it all.
Edit 2: Penis Dorsey leading the league in tackles. T2 in forced fumbles (2). And he has a pick. This guy is a monster!

I have my games where I make my fair share of wtf was I thinking throws. It just sucks when the game still punishes you even if you make the proper read.
Edit: Forgot to mention Haden getting tripped up by his own guy when he had a clear path to the endzone. Dat physics engine!

who wants it less lol
In case it helps, there is a 3rd option where you hold the button but release it before the ball is let go. I am terrible at using it though so who knows if it would help.

I know but the window for that is so small that if you have any lag then it's rendered pretty much useless.

i like it when i can just sit back and put my feet up while my defense gets me victory after victory! i love you pwill and virtual pwill!
trade me Welker
Tell me about it. I thought about breaking my disc in half Smokey style after my game was over this afternoon.
No. We just like the competition. The game itself is good save a few horrible features... ballhawk, physics, running... etc

WORST

EVER
I am sorry Rors... I feel dirty
First off the shit was laggy as hell so we both missed some big runs and the game just felt like it was underwater the whole time. The wind was fucking brutal. I missed 4 field goals(even a gimme inside the redzone - no idea wtf was going on no matter where i put the arrow i was shanking it), Rors missed two(both off the upright i believe), turnovers all over the place, the refs seems to think i was the home team and gave me some home cookin... it was just ugly ugly ugly...

It didn't matter where you aimed. It was swirling. I aimed it perfectly and it said NOPE!
Well....lol it is. Sorry!
You won though?!? Dude! I am happy I gave the Chiefs up now! You make me very very proud my friend!!!!!!

Yeah gg... we'll get a salty run back later in the year and you can bury me.
It sure felt like the shit was swirling cause i was mind fucked any time i had to kick a fg. Which is why i called a TO at the end of the game inside the 10 just to compose myself to kick a chip shot! I had the yips :/

I won but it didn't feel like a win. I should have just missed the last FG so it would have rightfully ended in a tie.
Those INTs were un fucking believable. The catches for the Chiefs were un fucking believable. This whole fucking game. Wow. Of course I fumble twice and lose them both.
I realize now why you can't throw over the shoulder, btw. It's not just YYYYY... although that's part of it. It's that the QB will throw a few steps behind the WR's stride unless it's Peypey/Brady. The DB will slow down for the ball, but the WR won't. Release is now the most useless attribute in the game. Well, other than PBK for right tackles.

Didn't touch Y cause my stick skills are horrid in madden especially if i switch defenders mid play. The CPU just felt like boning you that game my friend
I actually ran the ball twice to start the game. Then the snowball occurred and it was all over.
Last time I checked I recently blasted you out of the playoffs. Guess I'll have to do it again.
I've been saying this since season one. Marshall is neutered in this game.
I play in an actual division. And i never shamelessly tanked.

Last time I checked you were throwing (literally and figuratively) a game against me to get a higher pick.
I don't care how much you won by! You beat Rors! I have never actually done that!
On a side note. I called Time Warner about my $243/month cable/phone/internet bill and wanted to drop cable completely. They said they could actually get me cable/phone/internet cheaper than just internet/phone because of a 12 month promotion deal. I dropped my bill from 243/month to 137/month and went from 20 down and 1 up to this!

No, not saying you did. btw- you don't need stick skills this year. Just hold Y when the ball is in the air.
No timing required.
