I think we set a record for inside zones! I went with the AZ playbook on that last drive. It works!

Yeah, I quit after that Colston fumble. Basically in Madden if you fumble it means you're gonna get AI'd. Why fight it!

GG blue. I know your WR was knocked off his route on one int, but I just beat him to the spot so he went into that dumb animation.

That Jamison is a good back, guy always breaks tackles.

GG, I rushed a couple of those throws because of imagined pressure or maybe real pressure and I paid. I was bummed when you user picked me when I had that bunch setup, because Kearse had a ton of room

I was pretty surprised by Jamison's effort, felt like one of the first games where he was really breaking tackles. I definitely felt like I was in it until I started throwing picks.

Much has changed.
Here's where we were:
Team | Division Record | Conference Record | Remaining opponents (key games bolded)
1. SF 10-1 (4-0) (8-1) Eagles, Jags, Texans, Seahawks, Rams
2. ATL 10-1 (3-0) (8-1) Packers, Saints, Bucs, Jets, Panthers
3. PHI 8-3 (4-1) (5-3) Niners, Cards, Cowboys, Chargers, Seahawks
4. CHI 8-3 (2-2) (5-3) Rams, Lions, Vikings, Steelers, Bucs
5. STL 9-2 (3-1) (6-2) Bears, Texans, Seahawks, Cowboys, Niners
6. DAL 8-3 (3-1) (5-3) Giants, Broncos, Eagles, Rams, Cardinals
7. MIN 7-4 (4-0) (5-3) Panthers, Bucs, Bears, Browns, Lions


Here's where we are:
1. STL 12-2 (4-1) (8-2) Cowboys, Niners
2. ATL 11-3 (3-2) (9-2) Jets, Panthers
3. DAL 11-3 (5-1) (7-3) Rams, Cardinals
4. MIN 10-4 (5-0) (8-3) Browns, Lions
5. SF 11-3 (4-0) (8-2) Seahawks, Rams
6. PHI 10-4 (4-2) (7-4) Chargers, Seahawks
7. CHI 9-5 (3-3) (6-5) Steelers, Bucs

Hot Takes:
  • DCX is 1-2 over his last 3, didn't forsee that, he should've been on easy street to the top seed
  • 12th win guarantees teams a playoff spot
  • Bowser and Birdles just have to win 1 of their last two to clinch the division
  • If LJ beats Bowser and FMT beats Blue, their game will determine the division AND deliver a bye...
  • LJ v. FMT extravaganza:
  • If LJ wins: he gets the top seed, FMT gets the 5.
  • If FMT wins, LJ is the 5 and FMT might get the 1 depending on tiebreaker
  • Pheenix could be CB's brother for life with a win over Bowser in Week 17

NFC Predictions
1. STL
2. ATL
3. DAL
4. MIN
5. SF
6. PHI
7. CHI

just kidding there aren't 7 spots in the playoffs.

Here's where we were:
1. Pats 9-2 (4-0) (6-1) CLE, NYJ, DEN, KC, BUF
2. KC 8-3 (4-1) (8-2) WAS, NYG, BUF, NE, OAK
3. HOU 8-3 (4-1) (7-3) SEA, STL, SF, OAK, IND
4. PIT 7-3 (1-2) (4-3) BAL, OAK, IND, BAL, CHI, CLE
5. CIN 7-4 (3-1) (7-2) DEN, BAL, DET, BAL, GB
6. BUF 7-4 (3-1) (6-3) MIA, CAR, KC, NO, NE
7. OAK 7-4 (3-1) (5-2) PIT, MIA, SD, HOU, KC
8. IND 6-5 (3-0) (6-3) ARI, PIT, JAX, TEN, HOU
9. JAX 6-5 (1-3) (5-4) TEN, SF, IND, ARI, BAL


Here's where we are:
1. NE 12-2 (5-0) (9-1) KC, BUF
2. PIT 11-3 (3-2) (8-3) CHI, CLE
3. KC 10-4 (4-1) (8-2) NE, OAK
4. HOU 9-5 (4-1) (7-3) OAK, IND
5. CIN 9-5 (4-1) (9-2) BAL, GB
6. IND 8-6 (4-0) (7-3) TEN, HOU
7. BUF 8-6 (4-1) (7-4) NO, NE
8. OAK 8-6 (3-2) (6-4) HOU, KC

Hot Takes:
  • It looks like if IND, BUF and OAK all finish with the same record, IND has the tiebreaker, but this is Madden, so...
  • 11th win is auto clinch
  • Steelers are Rothlisberger free for the rest of the season (but they've already clinched at minimum, a playoff spot)
  • HOU v OAK is maybe the biggest game for both teams this year
  • If Smokey wins out, he gets the division and possibly as high as the 4th seed
  • if Luke wins out he gets the division and likely no higher than the 4th seed
  • if Soka wins out, I think the best he can do is the wild card
  • If rinse wins out the best he can do is the wildcard
  • If Splat and AT finish with the same record, Splat gets the division and AT gets the 4 seed (AFC South) in Round 1
  • Week 17 IND v HOU is likely for the division, although depending on how the ball bounces the loser could still make the Wild Card

AFC predictions
1. NE
2. CIN
3. KC
4. HOU
5. PIT
6. BUF

Why no "if Bowser beats LJ and LJ beats FMT" scenario?

Why must you continue to doubt the will of the Madden Gods?!

I need a bye :(

Good to hear I've secured a playoff spot. I have yet to miss the playoffs in any season of MaddenGAF I've played and I had no intention of this being the first, quarterback or not.

A new era starts today:

Already ruining Luke's AFC predictions! your int-lateral was hilarious. My ints were mostly awful howell sails :(

I INT-lateral a lot...lol. It's a terrible instinct I have that has no reason for existing. Something with the camera switching makes me jam on the controller. I'm a moron.

I can't pull myself out of the character creator. I'm recreating the characters from Aliens right now.

Can't wait for all the crazy ass customization mods, though.

You guys are now part of my character pool. Mainly left the characters randomly generated, just changed names and set your armor colors to your team colors (or what I thought your teams were).
