Any time line on the game that is holding up the superior NFC side of the bracket? I want to get my loss out of the way.

He was telling me he ran out of arthritis medication as well. He wouldn't have been able to hold the controller, which I guess is understandable.

That was the worst start to the game I've ever had. First play, Reggie busts off the left side and only has the safety to beat. What do I do? I HIT LB OFCOURSE! :D

Peppers recovers and heads in for the TD. Shawn, I know that laterals are against the league rules, and I'd like to apologize to you personally for cheesing you like that.

Otherwise, GG. I was rusty as hell.

Good game Slo, I'm happy the Reggie Bush I know finally showed up and put the ball on the ground three times! Reggie is a serious weapon, your insistence on force feeding him the ball made it easy to play bend but dont break defense. See ya next year bud! :D

Final score is 34-17, and I'm thrilled to make it to the Elite 8!

Now I get to shutdown Romo and the crew right? What's the matchups?!?

Yay!!! I finally get to sell this game for MLB '08!

Ando won 31-0 before I waived the white flag in the fourth quarter. The way I saw the blowout was this was a classic case where my line couldn't block for shit (7-8 sacks through halftime I think?), his line was a wall giving him all day to throw on deep PA passes to Galloway, and my recievers dropped balls left and right.....it was one of those games which gives some support to the conspiracy theory that sometimes the game decides who wins before the start button is even pressed.

It's been real and I'm looking forward to getting my team back so I'll actually give a shit during the season! Ciao until next year chums!

I had 4 sacks at the half and 7 overall. I think it would have been easier for you to throw if you kept guys in to block and took shorter drops. I threw 2 deep PA passes to Galloway and both were wide open because I had plenty of time by leaving everyone in to block except the two WR's. You'd drop back 7-8 yards with no extra blockers and get engulfed when no one was open. My safeties got some good hits to knock balls loose but that pure drop by Carter on 3rd down was killer, he was pretty open. GL next year.

Well we obviously saw the game a bit differently, but it's all good as I'm not even trippin. Hopefully EA addresses the swiss cheese o-lines for next year as the stronger defenses just carve right through them.

Going from the Cowboys to the Panthers is like going from a Bentley where any strategy is executable to a Hyundai where you start to realize where all the leaks are in the game. New found respect to members here that perpetually use shitty teams (e.g. FMT, Rors etc).

You were like 20 yards away from turning it into a 6 pt game with 3 mins left, if I didnt do the low Hit Stick I'm sure you would have had that 1st down on 4th and 3. I was so scared of turning it over after those 2 fumble return TDs that you would have probably got the ball back with a good chunk of time left to run a game winning drive.

I have no idea how Fitz was that open, but I was scared as fuck that I would over throw him. If I messed up that pass with him THAT open I would not be a happy camper tonight :lol

Lonestar, you around to play our game tonight? Msg me on XBL if you want to play. My wife's using the computer for homework tonight, so I won't be able to check the thread.

actually, I'm a little upset. No, not the pissy timeout while FG'ing to take off another 5 seconds.

It's that no one would go out and cover Ronnie Brown. It's man, where the hell is the guy? He's got a LB, but he's...over there

Defender<---------30 yards----------->Ronnie Brown

To be fair, the only reason I took that last knee is because I took my 1st timeout to soon because I couldn't see the clock thanks to a cutscene. Otherwise, I would've ran it down to 2-3 seconds anyway.

I did notice on a a couple of those Brown/Booker catches that it was your backside LB covering him. All I had to do was wait for my receivers to get into their routes, and Ronnie was wide open.

Yeah, I should still be able to play tonight. I have a sick wife and baby at home right now, but I can probably play after they're asleep. I'll add you to my friend list when I get home from work.

Good game Matt. It was back and forth pretty much the whole way until that fumble in the 4th.

Final was 37-24....DM are you still keeping up with this thread? When do you want to play the final?

It's not a superbowl. It's just a tourney. ;b If it was the Superbowl, the Dolphins would not have made the playoffs and the Cards would have been 1 and done. :D Amirite, DM?

That trophy in the middle of the bracket looks a lot like a Superbowl trophy to me!!!

DM, I can play tonight at like 10 EST. Does that work for you?

That works....see ya then.

I didn't see your GT on the league daddy site (unless it's the same as your GAF name), so send me a friend invite when you can (Birdman1702).
