Disappointed, not bitter. Seems like most everyone is shitting on the league in general, I'm just joining in!

I'm not really shitting on the league itself rather the limitations the game has placed on it. Offline, this Madden can be enjoyable with lots of slider tweaks but online, it's a worthless piece of shit.

So during the bye week I completely gutted my defense. Been too lazy to check and EA had my depth chart completely messed up! So I fixed it, brought in a couple new starters and ended up with some good results. Tommie Harris booking after an INT here:

Then my secondary got into the action with an INT with under 1:30 left in the game zackary dackary bowman with the pick:

Bills have one last shot and I top it off with a user pick with Major Wright (First start at safety for the rook bye bye Steltz!):

Touchdown given up on a kickoff (surprise surprise!), other than that my D kept the offense out of the end zone the entire game!

Maybe because it was mid season. Maybe in the off-season it will get approved.

Unless I miss my mark, there won't be enough people here come season two to warrant vetoing trades...or making them

20 people or so is better than zero. There are alot of us having fun and replacement players will be had. It's not that big of a deal. The deal is still on the table ;)

- Unplayable lag.
- Running the same play.
- No-huddle when up two scores under two minute warning.

Bro. It was 14-3 in the first half. I'm going to keep trying to score. You kept all-in blitzing me when I was in a running formation so I would adible to quick slants. It's not exactly rocket science. As for lag, if you had a problem with it, why didn't you message me. It wasn't bad on my end at all. I can understand how you would be salty about the first touchdown given your defender missed a tackle, but come on. I didn't even try to score in the second half!

I keep doing the same shit. Everyone is obsessed with blitzing rushing at least 6 this season.

Exactly. Running screens and quick slants are effective against the blitz. I can't tell you how many times I get called a pussy because I use them effectively against bad players.

Be careful Brandon. It's especially effective to set the player up thinking it's going to be a blitz then audible into cover 2 for an easy pass defense or pick by the OLBs.

It was 35-7 in the first half, I didn't get a field goal. It was 21-7 when you were running no-huddle.

You weren't using audibles. You were running the same shotgun formation play while I was running 4-3 or Dime defensive sets, not blitzing.

It's not a big deal, I just don't enjoy playing like that is all.

Ha Ha. I know this. Zone blitzes are also an effective change-up, but that never happened.

You are right, you did have a touchdown. I scored on the first play of the game in shotgun, my next score was off a twins left play that was going to be a run, but I audibled to a quick slant when I saw there was nine in the box. Then I returned a pick for a touchdown. In the second half I scored a touchdown on a screen to Mendenhall, and after about mid way into the third quarter I toned down the game and scored one more field goal. I'm sorry if it was laggy, and if you want to run it back I'd be glad to play again.

I'm not mad or anything, don't get me wrong. Just commenting on it. I really haven't had a problem with lag this year so it seemed just weird that I would get the bug this game.

I don't think you are a cheeser or anything, just the no-huddle thing is looked down upon.

Dude, 21-7 first half he has every right to try and keep scoring under 2 minutes.

I played the Ravens, so those lines were doubly fucked up. The Dolphins offense finally came to life thanks to a couple lucky bounces. Defense is still standing strong!

You have to install your game, direct connect, then rub your belly and pat your head at the same time, then it works.

I'm fine with someone trying to score, just running the no huddle with time on the clock and time outs. I couldn't do much anyway.
